Prior to NFTify, NFT creators had to resort to relying on third-party NFT marketplaces to sell their NFTs, and while this approach has had its perks, it was still lacking in several aspects – namely an opportunity for NFT creators to establish their own brand, and true ownership of NFT collections. In the NFT world where authenticity and originality matter more than anything else, we felt that there needed to be a better platform at providing NFT creators with what they need to express themselves – and that’s why NFTify was born.
Founded in July 2021, NFTify was created to empower NFT creators with all the tools they need to create their own NFT storefront, as well as to make the NFT creation process easier for everyone. With the launch of the platform, we hope to lower the entry bar for everyone in the NFT space. Everyone can establish their own NFT branding with three simple steps:
Step 1: Build Store

- Multi-chain: currently NFTify supports Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Polygon networks

Nearly 10,000 NFT creators have enjoyed using our platform to launch their NFT projects on ETH, BNB & Polygon chains. NFTify would want to NFT creators having their projects on Cardano chain now would be able to import their collections to NFTify and enjoy having their own branded, customized NFT marketplaces with all the unique features as mentioned above.
Our solution aims to address the aforementioned challenges – the needs to establish one’s own branding and to sell NFTs effortlessly – with our free, non-technical, and fully customizable NFT marketplace solution. With the integration of Cardano to NFTify, many Cardano-based NFT project creators would have the right tool to fasttrack their marketplace launch. More NFTs creation & transaction will happen on Cardano chain, which will help boost the chain's usage and its adoption among NFT creatores.
To measure the success of our project, we measure the growth of our NFTify store owner community along with the growth of the NFTify platform itself. These growths are reflected in key metrics such as number of stores created & published, number of features released. All platform’s growth metrics will be communicated regularly to our existing & potential users via our website, social channels, and community groups.
During the community events & the upcoming blockchain Expo event in Japan in May 2022, we would announce the upcoming integration of Cardano chain to NFTify and educate NFT creators/projects currently on Cardano chain visiting the event to open stores on NFTify too.
To guarantee success for this project, we anticipated several risks and challenges which we’ll be going through below:
Risks:
- Big players joining the NFT space: Shopify already announced its NFT beta program, allowing merchants to directly sell NFTs from their e-commerce websites. Also we have a few direct competitors namely NFTically, Circus, NiftyKit
=> To mitigate this risk, we would
- Try to maintain our first mover advantage by consistently releasing new features quickly to make our platform the most competitive choice for users. At the same time, we will speed up marketing & user acquisition campaigns to secure top-of-mind awareness and market share
- Focus on building the core strengths of our platform which is intuitive UI/UX, customizable features and strong support service.
Challenges:
- User acquisition: still a small portion of NFT creators/projects have the need to launch their own NFT site, the majority are still selling NFTs on 3rd party marketplaces.
- Limited development resources: we always have a long backlog list of features to be added to our platform. To be able to integrate Cardano chain to NFTify and at the same time still complete other features, we need a bigger team of blockchain developers, especially the the smart contract headcount who has great understanding about Cardano chain to be able to integrate it quickly to NFTify.
- Limited business development resources: we haven’t had headcounts to lead partnership & business development activities to do mass outreach and effectively on board big NFT creators/projects
=> To mitigate these challenges, we would
- Educate the market more on the benefits of having a branded, customized NFT marketplace
- Educate store owners to promote and sell their NFTs better through videos, webinars, community hangouts
- We are raising funds to be able to expand our business development & development team quickly to integrate Cardano to our platform and approach NFT projects on Cardano quickly.
