Starbucks Celebrates 20 Years of Pumpkin Spice Latte with NFT Collectibles
Autumn is on its way, and for many coffee drinkers, 'tis the Pumpkin Spice Latte season. Starbucks' popular beverage is turning 20, and to celebrate the occasion, the American coffee shop chain announced special non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles.
Starbucks Odyssey, the coffee giant's Web3 rewards and loyalty platform, will today release Pumpkin Spice Latte digital stamps, exclusively for its members. Nonmembers can join the Starbucks Odyssey waitlist.
Each NFT from "The PSL Collection: Spiced Stamp" will cost $20.
Payment options include ETH, Nifty Gateway balance, Gemini balance, credit card, and buy now pay later.
Four types of NFTs will be available, each representing a type of "fall’s most iconic drink": Spiced, Iced, Steamed, and Whipped.
Each member can purchase up to 4 Stamps from the collection, according to the description on the NFT marketplace Nifty Gateway.
The designs will be revealed to the buyers by October 10, 2023.
Per the announcement,
"Stamps earn you 250 points each. If you choose to purchase all four designs, an opportunity awaits you on the other side."
Starbucks' NFTs are minted on Ethereum scaling network Polygon and sold on Nifty Gateway.
