About us
IYK bridges the physical and digital worlds by using NFC and blockchain technology. By tokenizing physical items and IRL experiences, we are building the tools necessary for brands, companies, and creators alike to deliver new, innovative experiences to their fans. For the very first time, our tech allows companies to verify and reward fandom across the entire spectrum of customer and user engagement. For example, imagine getting airdropped a concert ticket or NFT from your favorite artist for owning merch from their previous tour, receiving early access to an exclusive product drop from a D2C brand based on your past purchasing history, or winning a sneak peek at a luxury brand’s upcoming collection for visiting one of their pop-up locations. All of these experiences—and more—are made possible with IYK. Using our technology, we are unlocking entirely new experiences that combine the tangible joy of physical items with the unique benefits and utility of the digital world.

🎉 🎉 POWER OF WOMEN's debut fashion line is launching on 21 MAY 🎉 🎉 I am BEYOND excited to announce that my very first fashion capsule collection, THE PARADISE COLLECTION, will be launching next week! It’s been a dream since I was a little girl to design my own clothes. To be able to launch my own collection of garments 20 years on is surreal and empowering. The limited-edition capsule collection features tiered dresses, wrap dresses and unisex shirts in three iconic prints, as well as three silk scarves. Each of the collection’s garments incorporates innovative NFC chip technology powered by IYK, enabling owners to interact with their garment’s digital twin, access exclusive content and claim future art drops. Pre-sale launch exclusively on HUG 🤗 on 21 May. Featuring a digital experience powered by IYK* Garments are modelled by the actress, Ingvild Lakou. Photography by The VOW Studio.

Most loyalty programmes don't reward loyalty at all. They only reward purchase behaviour. While real loyalty can also look like: ✦ Being a top listener ✶ Holding limited-edition merch ✷ Attending in-person experiences All real-world actions that creators have little ownership of. This is the magic of IYK. Through chipped goods and tokenising IRL experiences, our tech unlocks an ability for creators to verify these valuable actions. Allowing creators to reward real loyalty, across the fandom.
