NFT Loyalty Programs: How Entertainment Industry Explores the Web3 Space

Almost every significant company from entertainment industry has already entered Web3 to explore the power of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the metaverse. With innovative projects and partnerships, these brands are accelerating the intersection of physical and digital products with NFTs. Check out how five entertainment industry giants are making waves in the web3 space and redefining fan engagement with NFT-based loyalty programs:

1️⃣ Netflix:

Netflix’s innovative show Love, Death + Robots is the ideal platform for Netflix to explore the world of NFTs. The series is a mixed bag of animated and mixed media shorts.

Interestingly, every episode contains hidden NFTs, retrievable by scanning QR codes, which show up in your OpenSea account. Although there’s no charge for these, you are responsible for the gas fees. In total, Love, Death + Robots has hidden nine QR codes within its episodes and social media content.

2️⃣ Disney:

Disney, a global titan in the mass media industry, ventured into the realm of non-fungible tokens in 2021, creating NFT collections featuring their legendary characters.

The Disney NFTs, which encompass the company’s intellectual property and incorporated franchises such as The Simpson, are displayed on VeVe.

In November 2021, Disney introduced their debut NFT collection: the “Disney Golden Moments NFTs”. As implied by the name, the collection highlights some of the most memorable instances of the company’s iconic characters. The most notable characters are: Elsa from Frozen, Iron Man, and the collection’s crown jewel: Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse hand-in-hand.

Disney’s NFTs were an instant sell-out upon their launch, particularly because they originate from one of the globe’s most influential mass media companies. Disney implemented a “Blind box” strategy on drop day, requiring buyers to open a box to reveal their purchase. Most of the NFTs in the collection were tagged at $60, with some of these NFTs’ value skyrocketing up to $2000.

3️⃣ Warner Bros:
One NFT to Rule them all…

 

After surviving the treacherous journey to Mordor, Frodo Baggins’ subsequent grand adventure propelled him into the blockchain. Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) introduced Ethereum-compatible Web3 cinematic experiences and non-fungible tokens as part of the new WB Movieverse. The inaugural launch, which took place on October 21, featured The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

These “multimedia living NFTs” encompassed 4K UHD extended editions of the movie, countless hours of bonus content, interactive elements, diverse menu experiences, and concealed augmented reality (AR) collectibles. This was akin to purchasing a DVD with supplementary features, but with a twist: Warner Bros. asserted that enthusiasts would have the capacity to own and exchange these experiences on a communal marketplace.

Middle Earth was merely the beginning for Warner Bros. The colossal entertainment conglomerate has already started to chart a sequence of Web3 film offerings from its Warner Bros. Home Entertainment division.

4️⃣ Sony:

Sony Interactive Entertainment, the colossal company behind the PlayStation brand, lodged a patent for a system that enables users to transfer and use nonfungible tokens (NFTs) across various gaming platforms.

Sony’s interest in crypto over numerous years is demonstrable through a series of partnerships and trademark registrations. To expand this portfolio, Sony submitted a patent named “NFT framework for transferring and using digital assets between game platforms.”

The goal of Sony’s NFT framework is to incorporate NFTs into gameplay, where the technology can represent skins and other popular in-game features. The abstract of the patent provided a succinct summary of its intended capabilities:

5️⃣ Paramount:

Star Trek led the first NFT digital collection under extensive partnership of Paramount and RECUR. This partnership aimed at integrating Paramount’s cherished entertainment brands and characters into the metaverse. Fans were able to start procuring Star Trek digital collectibles from April 9th via Paramount.xyz.

Together, Paramount and RECUR crafted a fan-centric platform intended to foster a cohesive ecosystem where enthusiasts could purchase, accumulate, and trade NFTs as digital collectibles pulled from Paramount’s illustrious portfolio of brands. This encompassed Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, MTV, BET, CBS, Showtime Networks Inc., and more. Star Trek marked the inauguration of this sequence, which was later followed by collectibles from Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures.

Paramount.xyz provided a platform for fans to form a community, interact with fellow enthusiasts, and unlock novel, immersive, and interactive experiences with the properties and brands they cherished.
