Crypto.com launched Crypto.com Rips on November 9, 2026, a digital trading card platform integrated into its flagship mobile app that combines card pack openings with transparent pricing, guaranteed buyback offers, and physical card fulfillment. The platform addresses friction points in the traditional card collecting market by eliminating opaque valuations and cumbersome secondary marketplace listings, instead providing users with locked-in sell-back prices immediately upon card reveal.
- Launch categories: MLB, NBA, NFL, and Pokémon
- Buyback guarantee: 100% guaranteed purchase at locked-in price within 2-day hold window
- User incentive: First 5 pack rips free for all app users
- Exit options: Instant sell-back, physical delivery, or 48-hour hold (24 hours for welcome packs)
The platform operates through three distinct user pathways. Collectors can accept instant buyback offers and redeploy proceeds into additional packs, cryptocurrency, prediction markets, stocks, or perpetual contracts. Alternatively, they can request secure, tracked delivery of physical cards directly to their addresses. A third option allows users to hold undecided pulls for up to two days, after which the system automatically executes at the locked-in sell-back price to protect against market fluctuations.
Card collecting sits at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and passionate digital communities. By combining the excitement of the live rip with instant liquidity and real physical ownership, we are continuing to broaden the utility and entertainment value of the Crypto.com App.
