The company has reportedly completed the selling of 50,000 NFTs to sports fans throughout 20 nations on a cumulative basis.

“Cricket is the 2nd largest sport in the world, with more than 1.5 billion fans globally. NFTs are creating new forms of engagement, allowing fans to own and trade digital collectibles. Rario’s global cricket NFT ecosystem will be further strengthened by the 140 million sports fans on Dream Sports.” Wadhwa offered further remarks regarding the potential synergies with Dream Sports.

The NFT platform it built is reportedly functioning on the foundation of Polygon (MATIC), allowing players to purchase and sell cricket players’ cards at will.

Nonetheless, transactions will reportedly be finalized in United States dollars using credit or debit cards and bank accounts, charging a 5% fee on NFT card sales.
