Authenticate

Authentication

Verify every collectible at the source.
NFC tags and blockchain-backed certificates make every game-used and limited-edition item tamper-proof, fully authentic, and traceable across each transaction—from point of creation to resale.

Provenance transforms high-value memorabilia into verifiable digital assets. Each item receives a secure NFC (or RFID/hologram) identifier and a blockchain certificate recording origin, chain-of-custody, media, and ownership history—accessible in-store and online.

What Our Authentication Delivers

Provenance bridges physical and digital trust. Every authenticated item gains a tamper-proof digital record, enhancing transparency, fan confidence, and long-term asset value.

Why Authentication Matters

  • Teams recover lost revenue from untracked resales and endorsements.

  • Fans gain trust through public, tamper-proof verification.

  • Partners — leagues, marketplaces, and rights holders — can audit inventory and measure real demand in real time.

  • Everyone gets a single, end-to-end source of truth—no manual hologram logs, screenshots, or guesswork.

Core Features (Built for Pro Sports)

  • NFC & Hologram Pairing – One-tap verification with anti-clone, anti-tamper protection.

  • Blockchain Certificates – Immutable proof of authenticity and a complete provenance trail.

  • Media Evidence – Image or video capture at the moment of authentication for visual validation.

  • AI-Enriched Metadata – Smart tags capture player, game, location, and condition context.

  • Chain-of-Custody – Every transfer logged and verified; each resale remains traceable.

  • Fan-Facing Verification – Tap, scan, or open link to view proof—no app required.

How It Works (4 Simple Steps)

  • Tag
    Affix a secure NFC or hologram tag to each authenticated collectible—jerseys, bats, balls, helmets, or limited drops—creating its physical-to-digital link.

  • Capture
    Use the Provenance Authenticator App to scan the tag, capture images or video, and record player, event, location, timestamp, and condition data.

  • Certify
    Issue a blockchain-backed Certificate of Authenticity (COA) with a unique verification link and immutable on-chain record of the captured media and metadata.

  • Transfer & Track
    Sell in-venue or online—ownership transfers automatically update the blockchain certificate. Each resale continues the item’s verifiable, living history.
