Supporting Women’s Football Through NFTs: Credit Suisse and Swiss Football Association Collaborate
Swiss investment bank Credit Suisse and the Swiss Football Association (SFA) have teamed up to create an NFT collection that aims to support women’s football in Switzerland. Here are the key points:
– The collaboration consists of 756 digital art portraits of Swiss national team players.
– All proceeds from the NFT collection will be donated to the Swiss Women’s National Team and organizations dedicated to empowering female football players.
– The NFT collection will be minted on the Ethereum blockchain and can be purchased through Credit Suisse’s digital banking application.
– Three packages of NFTs will be available, with prices ranging from 150 to 10,000 Swiss Francs.
– Each package includes benefits such as a physical artwork counterpart, the opportunity to meet the players, and a signed jersey.
Credit Suisse’s initiative follows a trend of organizations using NFTs to support women in sports. FC Barcelona recently released an NFT collection dedicated to Spanish football star Alexia Putellas, and Oregon’s Division Street collaborated with Sedona Prince and other University of Oregon women athletes for an empowering NFT collection to support women student-athletes. By utilizing NFTs as a funding mechanism, Credit Suisse aims to drive the growth of women’s football and promote young talent within the sport.
