NFT ownership

What is an NFT? 

A non-fungible token (NFT)* is a unique and non-interchangeable digital asset. It can represent both physical and digital items such as music, game skins, art pieces, NBA highlights, and much more. NFTs use blockchain technology to establish a verified and public proof of ownership. It’s important to remember that NFTs are not considered cryptocurrencies despite being a unit of data stored on a blockchain network, such as the Ethereum network. 

Buying an NFT doesn’t mean owning the rights to the creation

Firstly, be aware that you can’t sell or buy an NFT on Fiverr because NFTs can only be sold, exchanged, or purchased on online marketplaces that can host blockchain technologies. 

Secondly, you can buy on Fiverr services relating to the creation of an NFT. Please note that by purchasing NFT services on Fiverr, you are not (necessarily) purchasing the rights to the underlying asset. Read each Gig’s description carefully to understand what services and rights are included to avoid any misunderstandings.

Make sure that you own the rights to the creation you want to transform into an NFT

When you order the creation of an NFT, make sure you have all the required rights to the underlying asset. Not having the rights to the underlying asset may be in breach of Fiverr's Community Standards. 

Problem with the order regarding an NFT?

If you have an issue with an NFT-related service that was purchased or made on Fiverr, contact please Customer Support using the Contact us tab at the bottom of the page for assistance. However, if the NFT order involved transactions outside of Fiverr, we will not be able to help you as the payment took place external to Fiverr’s platform. Make sure to keep your assets and information safe. We advise you to never share sensitive information or private keys with others. 

*A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique and non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a digital ledger (blockchain). NFTs can be associated with easily-reproducible items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files as unique items (analogous to a certificate of authenticity), and use blockchain technology to give the NFT a verified and public proof of ownership. Copies of the original file are not restricted to the owner of the NFT and can be copied and shared like any file.
