beyondClub - Localize Event Ticket feature for the Japanese market

yukiwaki commented 12 months ago

Description

We are requesting 300UDT to support the localization of Unlock membership and ticketing flow for the Japanese market.

BeyondClub is already leveraging Unlock Protocol to support Japanese clients and partners with our no-code web3 loyalty platform. We were also selected for the Unlock retroactive funding in April 2023. (as Yuki / yuki_xyz) However, we’d like to further localize these efforts for a more seamless membership NFT and ticketing system for Japanese users.

As the Japanese government recently launched a new grant program for big events to use NFT tickets, we believe this can be a great opportunity to expand the Unlock ecosystem to the Japanese market. (We had the press release with Unlock, to support events that want to apply for this government grant.) https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000018.000080182.html

This grant will enable us to:

Translate the Unlock membership system into Japanese inside beyondClub product, ensuring that the user experience is seamless and user-friendly.
Localize the NFT ticketing system for event organizers and participants launching as ticket.beyondclub.xyz
Making the localized event ticketing system as open source

The expected outcomes of this project include focusing on community-building and fan empowerment through gamification. Unlike traditional membership programs, we aim to foster genuine relationships between brands and their audiences, creating a sense of belonging and identity within the community.
