Starbucks Ups the Ante in the Digital World with More NFT Airdrops
Catch the Starbucks NFT Wave
Starbucks is bringing a fresh wave of excitement to the NFT (Non-Fungible Token) scene! Come this June, the coffee giant is brewing up something spectacular for its Odyssey rewards program members: an NFT airdrop.
For those out of the loop, an NFT airdrop is a way of distributing unique digital assets (in this case, "limited-edition stamps") to a group of users. But hold your horses! Not everyone can join the party. Starbucks has set some specific criteria to identify who gets to sip from this special cup.
A Sneak Peek into the Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible for this exciting NFT airdrop, you need to be a resident of the United States and a member of both the Starbucks rewards program and the Starbucks Odyssey. The Starbucks Odyssey is the company's exclusive Web3 rewards platform, currently in beta since September 2022 and open only to a chosen few.
But that's not all. If you're already an Odyssey member, you need to have completed two "journeys" and own at least one limited-edition NFT stamp. Now, what's a journey? It's a unique challenge that Starbucks users can complete to win stamps filled with reward points. For instance, it could be visiting a different Starbucks store or trying a new drink.
As per Starbucks Odyssey's airdrop terms, users who meet all these qualifications by a specific date will be eligible for the airdrop.
The Fine Print
Here's a little heads up: while you'll get a stamp, you won't be able to pick which one. Starbucks will be the one calling the shots on this. So, you'll receive a stamp based on Starbucks' discretion, not your preference.
Starbucks' Digital Evolution
This isn't Starbucks' first rodeo in the digital arena. The company has shown a growing interest in the world of digital ownership. Remember the "First Store" NFTs launched last month? This collection features digital collectibles inspired by the original Starbucks storefront that opened its doors in downtown Seattle in 1971.
These First Store NFTs have already caused quite a stir, generating the highest sales volume on NFT marketplace Nifty Gateway in the last 24 hours.
