How Arianee works

Arianee’s SaaS platform allows brands to create NFTs with different features, such as:

• Asynchronous transmission mode: users can view NFT content and generate a wallet at the same time, without being native to the crypto world. In the coming months, users will be able to transfer their NFT to an external wallet.
• Stamped on Polygon: Holders can share and exchange NFTs on various blockchain networks and applications, from metaverse like The Sandbox to NFT marketplaces like Opensea.
• Other features add to the previous ones: user-generated airdrop, CRM, timestamps, transparency data, augmented reality, distribution in the metaverse, etc…

Pierre-Nicolas HurstelCEO and co-founder of Arianee, said:

“It is a great opportunity to welcome Moncler as a member of the Arianee association and develop this project with them. Our platform allows them to deploy and control web3 experiences to build a new relationship with customers. We are proud to offer Moncler customers a completely seamless user experience, from the physical to the digital through the immersive world. We are honored to be associated with an iconic brand like Moncler to celebrate such an important anniversary.”

This is the first step in a broader Web3 strategy that the Moncler brand has in mind, which will focus on the tokenization of multiple assets, both digital and linked to physical assets.

Web3 is expected to reach one billion users by 2031, and in this area, the statement explained, companies like Arianee will play a key role in the growth of world-renowned luxury brands entering this world.

Arianee was founded in 2018 and is the first platform that offers companies solutions to enter the Web3. Arianee’s open source blockchain-based protocol helps brands implement their Web3 strategy by enabling them to tokenize, distribute and leverage NFTs to transform relationships with their communities.

Arianee is best known for its recent collaborations with Printemps, Panerai, Groupe Casino and long-time partners Richemont Group, Ba&sh, RSVP, Breitling and Paris Fashion Week.
