Credit card/web3 crossover: Nudge launches "Snap to Earn" Visa card

Nudge has partnered with Snap to Earn game "SNPIT" to begin offering the "Official SNPIT Credit Card" through the next-generation "Nudge Card."
About SNPIT
"SNPIT" is a new "Snap to Earn" service that allows users to earn unique tokens by taking photos using their smartphone camera. It has attracted attention for its game-like system that allows users to have fun while participating in their daily lives, and has surpassed 240,000 users in Japan as of February.
Through this partnership, Nudge and SNPIT have released the "SNPIT Official Credit Card," which allows users to effortlessly and continuously enjoy the world of SNPIT through their everyday shopping.
This card has a system where a portion of the usage amount is returned to the partner, so your regular payments will directly support the operation of SNPIT. In return, you will receive exclusive benefits that can only be obtained here, such as limited edition illustration NFTs and membership card NFTs that give you priority access to various content.
Special Content and Rewards
The "SNPIT Official Credit Card" offers a variety of benefits to SNPIT users, including:
- 10 different illustrated NFTs of varying rarity
- Specially designed gift cards that can be given as gifts with SNPIT inside
- A non-Genesis Camera NFT BOX that can be used with SNPIT
Particularly interesting is the NFT reward system:
- Randomly dropped NFTs include two rare NFTs out of the 10 types
- Gacha-style format where you do not know which NFT you will get
- These NFTs can be exchanged between users as on-chain NFTs on Polygon, allowing users to potentially complete the entire collection
