Discover how Blokhaus built the world's first NFT gifting app and deployed it around the world from Art Basel to Vidcon.
We built the first-ever NFT souvenir gifting app.
An easy-to-use app that puts digital assets into the hands of attendees at in-person events – no blockchain expertise required.
Our events, creative and dev teams worked together, harnessing the power of the blockchain to create a custom souvenir solution for in-person experiences. From concept to deployment, the team designed a frictionless user flow that lets attendees scan a QR code, create a wallet in seconds using their existing social accounts, and claim a unique digital souvenir – all without any prior crypto knowledge. We iterated across multiple live events, refining the experience at Art Basel, SXSW, and We Are Developers to ensure it worked seamlessly at scale, under real-world conditions, with thousands of simultaneous users.
It's a web app where patrons can scan a QR code with their smartphone, and log in with their social account. It takes just a few seconds to create a wallet, and then they're ready to claim their souvenir NFT with one click. Tens of thousands of NFTs have been claimed via the Souvie app already, by attendees at events such as SXSW, Art Basel, and We Are Developers.
What started as a digital collectible tool at Art Basel quickly evolved into something much bigger – a turnkey solution for brands looking to distribute digital assets at trade shows, conferences, gallery openings, and even birthday parties. Souvie is now a customizable, white-label platform powered by blockchain technology, giving any brand the ability to gift NFTs to their audience in seconds. Incubated and built entirely in-house, it represents exactly the kind of product we believe the industry needs: accessible, elegant, and built for the real world.
