Phase 1 mint was a success!

To accommodate those who missed out, all BasedApp users (regardless of points) can mint in-app for Phase 2 and 3, with one mint per user.

Pay with WETH from your BasedApp wallet or XSGD from your card (ensure funds are ready). In-app mint will be on Polygon.

In-app mint grants a Gold Card (not NFT) by year-end. Prefer a tradable NFT? Contact support in-app after minting and we will send it to you.
