🎁Distribution Guidelines

The chart below is a rough guide to preferred different distribution methods, based the type of event an issuer is hosting.

Distribution Guide Key

• Mint links: unique URLs that enable the minting of a single POAP from a specific drop. One mint link should be sent to each collector.

• POAP Home In-App Dispenser: a rotating QR code created and displayed within the POAP Home app. Similar to the POAP Kiosk, the QR code changes each time it is scanned to mint a POAP. This method requires mint links and the POAP Home app.

• POAP Kiosk: a rotating QR code that can be displayed on a device, such as a tablet, that changes each time the QR code is scanned to mint a POAP. This method requires mint links and a device with a stable internet connection.

• NFC chips: NFC technology allows collectors to tap their phone to a physical device to mint a POAP.

• POAP Secret: A secret word or phrase that, when entered into the POAP app, mints a POAP.

• POAP Website: A URL that, when visited, allows someone to mint a POAP.

• POAP Location: provides the option for attendees to mint a POAP using their GPS location in the POAP Home app.

• Printed QR code: Static QR codes that, when scanned, mint a POAP.

• POAP Delivery: If you collected Ethereum addresses or ENS names from your attendees, you can create a whitelist via POAP Delivery. This will allow your attendees to mint their POAP at a dedicated page. You can find out more about how to set up a Delivery here.

• POAP Checkout: Allows attendees to buy a POAP by accessing a dedicated page for your drop and paying a fee.

• Guild: If you are using an online platform such as Discord to host your event, you can use Guild’s integrations to easily distribute POAPs.

• Mail merge: The best way to distribute POAPs using email addresses is emailing each recipient a mint link.
