Those who want to obtain them will not be able to pay for them with traditional money or cryptocurrencies, but will only be able to do so if they first purchase PepsiCo products.
The renowned tazos returned to the ring at the hands of Sabritas. The snack brand, a subsidiary of PepsiCo, launched the “NFTazos”, a series of non-fungible tokens that hit the market with the World Cup theme.
The ’90s are bent on making a comeback in the present, and this time they’re back, in the form of NFT mugs. The Sabritas snack brand launched a series of collectibles that can be purchased through the JOY APP. The NFT series has more than 1,000 designs in the gold, silver, and bronze categories.
Although, in general, NFTs are acquired through platforms such as OpenSea, in this case users can only obtain them from the JOY APP. In addition, each of the NFTazos is backed with a certificate of authenticity by Vatom.
Remembering the Past
For those who do not have much context, the tazos were round pieces of plastic or metal, which had images of recognized characters, such as Pokemon, printed on them. The idea of the youth of the 90s was not only to collect these pieces but also to play with them, throwing them against others that were located on the floor. The ultimate goal was to flip the pogs and whoever did it first would win their rival’s pog.
How to Acquire Sabritas NFTazos?
Sabritas is a PepsiCo brand that is available in Mexico. Those interested in acquiring these non-fungible tokens must download the JOY APP, and they will be available there. Of course, those who want to obtain them will not be able to do so by paying traditional money or cryptocurrencies but will only be able to do so if they first purchase PepsiCo products.
With these products, users will be able to exchange JOY points, which are obtained by entering the codes of the participating packages.
The theme of playing with the cups remains because the idea of Sabritas is to allow users to collect them and face other rivals to claim the rival’s cup or lose their own.
Although in general those who acquire NFTs obtain significant benefits, beyond the token itself, this is not the case with NFTazos. Sabritas indicated that they do not grant additional rewards or themes, beyond giving users the experience of having a mug again in their possession.
Sabritas also assured that, as was the case with traditional tazos, it is expected to be able to launch different types of thematic collections, to the extent that the brand can make new collaborations.
