Products & Services

Overview of Products and Services

1. Play-to-Earn (P2E) Blockchain Football Manager Game

  • What is it?
  • Invincible Football Manager is a blockchain-based football management simulation game where users can build, manage, and compete with their virtual football teams. Players earn rewards through skillful management, trading players, and participating in competitions.
  • What problems does it solve?
    • True Asset Ownership: Traditional football manager games don’t allow users to own or trade in-game assets. IFM solves this by tokenizing players, boosters, and other assets as NFTs.
    • Play-to-Earn Gap: Many football games lack monetization for players. IFM empowers users to earn real value for their time, skills, and investments.
    • Lack of Transparency: Through blockchain, every asset trade, reward, and transaction is securely recorded and verified.
  • How it works and uses Stellar/Soroban:
    • NFTs for Assets: Using Soroban smart contracts, players, stadiums, and in-game boosters are minted as NFTs on Stellar. These NFTs are tradable, ownable, and verifiable.
    • In-game Transactions: Stellar’s high-speed, low-fee network facilitates seamless transactions for buying, selling, and trading players or assets between managers.
    • Play-to-Earn Rewards: Players earn $IFM tokens for completing challenges, winning matches, or excelling in tournaments. These tokens can be exchanged or reinvested in the game.
  • Audience:
    • Football fans who enjoy managerial games.
    • Blockchain/NFT enthusiasts looking for engaging ways to earn while playing.
    • Gamers seeking immersive, skill-based P2E experiences.

  • What is it?
  • The NFT minting and trading platform allows users to mint rare in-game assets such as star players, coaches, stadium upgrades, and boosters. Users can also buy, sell, and trade these NFTs with other managers, creating a thriving ecosystem.
  • What problems does it solve?
    • Access to Unique Assets: Enables users to acquire rare and valuable assets to improve team performance and strategic advantages.
    • Liquidity for Gamers: By offering a marketplace for trading, players can monetize their in-game progress.
