Question 1

How do I verify if my item is authentic?

Accepted Answer

Each item authenticated by SUIG has an NFC tag physically present on the garment that allows you to access a Digital Certificate of Authenticity with: A unique identity code called "Jersey ID". Exclusive multimedia content. Access to an ownership registry to register as the owner for free.

Question 2

What does authentic mean?

Accepted Answer

Through NFC (near-field communication) technology embedded in the items and an unbroken chain of custody, each one carries a digital certificate of authenticity guaranteeing 100% that it has been used by an athlete or artist. Our NFC tags are stamped on the item before the event, and our team is physically present on-site to associate each tag (and its jersey) with its record.

Question 3

How do I access the digital certificate of authenticity?

Accepted Answer

Make sure your phone has NFC functionality and that it is enabled in your device settings. Unlock your phone. Simply bring your phone close to the tag, without opening the camera and without accessing an app. *The NFC antenna is usually located on the back of the phone, generally in the center (for Android) or the top (for iPhone). If it doesn't work, you can search for "NFC location" along with your phone's brand and model on Google.*

Question 4

Register your item under your name to protect it

Accepted Answer

Owners of our items (fans, players, or anyone in possession of an authenticated item) can add a layer of protection for this new asset for free with 3 simple steps: Tap your phone on the NFC tag to open the digital certificate, then tap "Register item". If you don't have an account, create one with your email or with Google. If you do, confirm that you want to register the item under that email. That's it: the item is registered under your name right away. Your username then shows on the certificate of authenticity. Tapping the tag doesn't register anything on its own: you register by following these steps.

Question 5

What benefits do I get by registering as an owner?

Accepted Answer

At SUIG we are building the world's first centralized database for all authentic items used by athletes and artists, in order to bring transparency and lifelong traceability to this market. Within your profile, you will be able to manage all your items and also: Transfer ownership: when you sell or gift your item, you can transfer ownership to other people. Keep your memories: in "My media" you can add a private photo and video to your item, so they stay with it for good.

Question 6

What is SUIG?

Accepted Answer

At SUIG we believe in the power of legacies. Our mission is to be the global brand that drives the market for memorabilia used in sports and entertainment. We build and manage technological infrastructure that helps sports and entertainment organizations connect with their fans through authentic items from their legacies.

Question 7

How do I transfer my item?

Accepted Answer

When you sell, gift or trade your registered item, you can hand ownership to someone else from your phone, whether or not they have a SUIG account: Open the item from your profile and tap "Transfer". Optional: tell us whether you sold it or gave it away and, if you sold it, the price and currency. Pick which photos and videos go with the item. Anything you don't transfer is deleted. Enter the other person's email, check the details and confirm. They get a link by email and confirm by holding their phone to the item's NFC tag. Only then does the item move to their name. The transfer doesn't expire: until they accept, you can cancel it from your profile at any time. If the item was for sale, the sale closes on its own once the other person accepts.

Question 8

What happens when I make an offer on an item?

Accepted Answer

Every registered item has an owner. Even if they haven't put it up for sale, you can make them an offer: it reaches them as a message and they decide whether they're interested. Many collectors don't list their items, but they're open to offers. To do it, tap "Make an offer" on the item page. You need an account with a verified email. Adding an amount is optional, in US dollars or Argentine pesos, and you can include a message. The owner gets your offer as a message on Home of Legacies, plus an email if they have those notifications turned on. Their reply shows up in "Messages". If the owner isn't taking offers on that item, you'll see a notice with an "I'm interested" button so you can let us know. Home of Legacies doesn't take payments or handle delivery: you sort that out directly with the owner, outside the platform.

Question 9

How do I put my item up for sale?

Accepted Answer

Open your registered item and tap "Sell". It will be marked "For sale". If you want, set a price in US dollars or Argentine pesos. People viewing the item will see an "I want this jersey" button, which sends you an offer for that amount as a message. You can also set a minimum offer: offers below that amount can't be sent. You can edit the listing or take the item off the market whenever you like. Home of Legacies doesn't take payments or handle delivery: you sort that out directly with whoever makes the offer, outside the platform. To hand ownership over to someone else, follow the steps in "How do I transfer my item?".

Question 10

Can I add private photos and videos to my item?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In "My media" you can upload a photo, a video or both to each item registered in your name. They're private and marked "Only you": only you and whoever gets a link you share them in can see them. To do that, turn on "Include private media" from "Share"; that access is temporary. If you transfer the item, you choose which photos and videos go with it. Anything you don't transfer is deleted.

Question 11

Is my name shown on Home of Legacies?

Accepted Answer

No. We understand and respect that you may want to stay anonymous: your name and your email are never shown to other users. When you create your account, you get a generic username. You can keep it or pick your own, which doesn't have to say who you are either, from "Edit profile". If you like, you can also add a profile photo. What others see is your username and your photo.

Question 12

What happens when the buyer and the owner reach an agreement?

Accepted Answer

The offer and the price are a verbal agreement between the two of you. Payment, costs and shipping are up to you and are arranged outside Home of Legacies. Then, just like with a car, ownership has to change hands: the owner transfers the item to the buyer from the item page, as explained in "How do I transfer my item?". Once the buyer accepts the transfer, the item stops showing as "For sale" on its own. The owner can also take the item off sale at any time.

Question 13

How do I give my item to someone as a gift?

Accepted Answer

Tap your phone on the item's NFC tag and, on the digital certificate that opens, tap "Gift item". Enter your email. Optional: add a message with photos or videos for the person receiving it. When you're done, you get a link to share. You can edit the message or cancel the link at any time. Whoever opens the link registers as the owner with their account or their email, without tapping the chip. Anyone who has the link can register as the owner, so share it only with that person. You can also hand over ownership with a transfer, as explained in "How do I transfer my item?".

Question 14

What can't you do on Home of Legacies?

Accepted Answer

So you know what to expect: There are no payments or middlemen: Home of Legacies doesn't charge, guarantee or step into a sale. Mark shows what was paid in real sales and, for your own item, a rough range along with where it comes from. It doesn't advise you to buy or sell. You can't register an item without tapping its chip. An item that already has an owner can't be registered: it only passes to someone else through a transfer or a gift. You can't see another user's name or email. Private photos and videos are seen only by the owner or by whoever gets the link the owner shares.
