New York Trading Cards
For that Big Apple energy you need.
Turn guests into collectible stars with custom AI-powered trading cards delivered as digital and physical keepsakes.
Trading Cards for fashion events, brand launches, and rooftop galas, with branding and guest flow built for shareable moments.
Trading Cards for New York Events
Our Trading Card Experience combines live capture, AI creativity, and custom design to give every guest their own collectible card. From sports-inspired fan cards to branded character themes, we can personalize stats, colors, player names, and output style to match your event. Guests can receive digital versions instantly and optional printed keepsakes in premium collector-ready formats.
NYC Building Literacy
New York venues are half the job. We run trading cards through Hudson Yards, DUMBO lofts, and Midtown hotels with COIs, freight, and a crew that stays sharp when the dock is late.
We'll help you navigate NYC buildings and guest flow so the activation feels intentional, not improvised.

The Ultimate Fan Photo Experience
Give your guests the ultimate keepsake collectible while keeping your brand top of mind. Our custom trading cards can place guests in any scene, story, or universe that fits your activation.
From sports-inspired outputs to fully custom TCG-style concepts, we design the experience around your vision and your audience.
AI Enhanced Trading Cards
Enhance your trading card experience with AI to turn your guests into anything you can imagine. From athletes and heroes to wild custom concepts, each output is tailored to your event theme.
A guest can be transformed into a full character concept in seconds, then delivered as a polished card-ready output they will want to keep and share.
Digital and Physical Trading Card Keepsake
Guests get a physical keepsake in the form of a sealed trading card, plus a shareable digital card layout with branded backgrounds and front/back style output.
Go full digital to keep things fast and lightweight, or combine digital and print for a premium collectible experience.
Guest Customizable with Custom Surveys
We can personalize the trading card experience so guests add their own details right at the event: player numbers, positions, nicknames, colors, team themes, and AI-enhanced descriptors.
These custom survey prompts make every card feel unique to the guest while still keeping the visual style and branding aligned to your campaign.
AI Photo Booth Capable
For brands looking beyond sports, this experience can combine with our AI Photo Booth workflows to generate any style of trading card concept you want.
Digital Photo Sharing
With internet access, guests can capture and share instantly online with branded delivery pages, custom email designs, and social-ready outputs.
