Create exclusive access to a product with limited redemption per NFT

Background


Exclusive access to a product with limited redemption per NFT can be used to giveaway a product or limit access to it a set number of times per NFT. There are three main parts to creating this campaign

Remove the product from active sales channels
Create the tokengating campaign using the PERCS NFT Gating Plug-in
Create a landing page where users can redeem their NFT(s) for access to the product


More information such as a FAQ and support for this type of campaign can be found in this doc

Why create this campaign this way?



While this is the most complicated campaign to create using PERCS, there is support available via builders@getpercs.com. After the first campaign, most clients do not need assistance creating the second campaign. The challenge is worth it since it provides security that ensures that only the users on the allow-list can access the utility. This has been used by brands such as Robert Mondavi Winery to give away $3500 bottles of wine to their NFT holders without a fraudulent claim.


Remove the product from all sales channels


Doing these steps will remove the possibility of someone forcing the product into a cart

From the Product screen ensure that the “Product status” is set to “Active”
Under Product status click “__Manage__”
