A Kickchain card is a real NFT. Not a receipt, not a badge — a fully-formed Metaplex Core asset that lives permanently in your Solana wallet. The moment your prediction is confirmed on-chain, the card is generated from your prediction data and minted directly to you. No one else holds it in escrow, and no one can take it back. Each card is a visual record of a decision you made: which match, which market, which outcome, what odds, and what rarity you earned at that exact moment. Two people predicting the same outcome will have cards that look almost identical — but the odds, edition number, and serial will differ, making every card uniquely yours.

​
Card anatomy

Every Kickchain card is built from the same layout, with elements that vary based on your prediction’s rarity tier, outcome, and settlement status.

KICKCHAIN Badge

Displayed in the top-left corner. Identifies this as an official Kickchain collectible, styled in the rarity accent colour with a distinctive skewed label.

WC26 Badge

Displayed in the top-right corner as a rotated diamond. Marks this card as part of the FIFA World Cup 2026 collection — a permanent branding element on every card.

Hero Art

The large central artwork. Each rarity tier has its own visual style and colour palette — from the clean steel tones of Common cards to the gold-laced art of Legendary.

Status Chip

Overlaid on the hero art. Shows the current state of your prediction: WON, PENDING, MISSED, or LIVE. Updates once the result is settled on-chain.

Market Label & Predicted Outcome

Below the hero art. Displays the market type (e.g. “Match Result”) and the outcome you predicted (e.g. “Away Win”). Clear and permanent — this is the core of your prediction.

Odds Diamond Plate

A rotated diamond plate in the lower-right corner showing the decimal odds locked in at the time you predicted. This is the number that determined your rarity tier.

Edition Number & Serial

Your card’s unique identifiers within the Kickchain collection. The edition number tracks when in the series it was minted; the serial distinguishes your specific card. Both are shown in the card’s footer line.

Spine

The narrow strip along the left edge of the card. Displays the competition name — WORLD CUP 2026 — so every card is identifiable even when displayed in a stacked or list view.

​
Foil effects

The foil treatment is the most visually distinctive element of a card’s rarity tier, applied across the card face as a surface finish.
Common cards have a clean, flat finish with no foil treatment. The steel accent (#9aa6bd) runs through the badge, frame, and odds plate. These cards are sharp and readable — their value is in the prediction they represent, not visual spectacle.

​
Where your card lives

Once minted, your card is an asset in your Solana wallet — the same wallet you use for any other NFT or token. It appears in your Collection tab inside the Kickchain app, where you can:
  • Browse all your cards by match, rarity, or status
  • Flip a card to view its full on-chain attributes — market type, pick, odds-at-pick, rarity, edition, settled flag, and won flag
  • Share a card directly from the app as an image, with all details intact
Each card’s rarity tier, edition number, and odds-at-pick are permanently recorded on-chain as part of the Metaplex Core asset’s attributes. Anyone can verify this data at any time — your bold Legendary call on a 9.00 underdog is provably real.

​
Card images and metadata

The artwork and metadata for every card are stored on IPFS — a decentralised, content-addressed storage network. This means:
  • The image and metadata are permanent and not hosted by any single server.
  • The IPFS content identifier (CID) is written into the on-chain NFT record, so the link between the chain data and the artwork is verifiable.
  • Even if Kickchain’s own servers went offline, your cards and their artwork would remain accessible via IPFS.
When you flip a card in the Collection tab, the on-chain attributes panel shows the raw values stored in your Solana account — including the odds as an integer (decimal odds × 1000) and the rarity as a numbered tier. This is the ground truth that the leaderboard and set tracking both read from.

​
One card, one prediction

Because the on-chain program enforces one prediction per wallet per market, no two cards in existence represent the same prediction from the same wallet. Your card is a unique artefact — a snapshot of your conviction about a specific World Cup outcome at a specific moment in time. Win or lose, it’s yours.
