EXPERIENCES / TRADING CARDS
The swag they actually collect.
Custom branded trading cards printed on-site for Ottawa events, conferences and sports activations.
Nobody collects swag bags.
They do collect trading cards. The format triggers an instinct that's been priced into sports and gaming culture for decades.
HOW IT WORKS
Three pieces make the card work.
Card design built for the brand.
Front art, back stats, team colours, sponsor strip. Co-designed with your brand team in pre-production.
Card with their face on it.
Photo capture on the floor. Auto-composited into the card template. Printed and trimmed on real cardstock.
Series-numbered for the chase.
Limited print runs trigger the trading instinct. Guests swap. They post the swap. The brand gets earned reach.
