Rules & Terms
ME COIN turns a person into a limited-run, pay-what-you-want digital trading card. It's a bit — but real money can change hands, so there are real rules. Mint a card and you agree to all of this.
The big one, no jokes: A ME COIN card is a digital collectible for fun. It is not an investment, not a security, not a share of a person, and not a store of value. There is no resale market, no dividend, no buyback, and no promise that anyone else will ever pay anything for your card. If you're buying one expecting it to "go up," don't.
What you may mint
- A card of yourself, or of someone who has clearly agreed to it.
- Clearly-labeled parody or fan tribute cards — they carry a visible badge, and they still can't use stolen photos.
- A photo you own or have the right to use.
- A name and tagline that are yours to publish.
- Every mint requires an attestation that you are 18+ and the person on the card is 18+. Well-known public figures' names are blocked from self-serve minting.
What gets you pulled
- Impersonation — minting a card of someone who didn't agree, or pretending to be them.
- Other people's photos used without permission.
- Adult or sexual content of any kind. This is hard-blocked by our payment provider and by us.
- Harassment, threats, hate, or doxxing — names, taglines, or images aimed at hurting someone.
- Illegal content, or anything that puts a minor on a card.
Every card carries a Report link. Reports are reviewed, and any card can be hidden permanently at our discretion — minted or not, sold or not.
How money works
- Buyers name their own price at or above the floor price the creator set ($1.00 minimum).
- Launch caps: $500 maximum per sale, and $100 maximum per sale while a card is under a week old. Caps exist so nobody wakes up to a purchase they regret.
- Payments are handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. Buyers must be 18 or older.
- When real selling is switched on, the seller connects their own Stripe account and is paid directly; ME COIN keeps 10% + 30¢ of each sale.
- Before a card can take real money, a human reviews its photo. Demo purchases work immediately.
- Demo mode simulates the whole flow with no real charge — you'll see a "DEMO MODE" banner when it's on.
- Supply is fixed at mint. When a card sells out, that's it — there are no reprints.
- All sales are final, except where Stripe or the law requires a refund (for example, a card that sells out at the exact moment of payment is automatically refunded).
Your card, your key
- Minting gives your browser a secret manage key, stored only on your device. It's what proves you own the card.
- Clear your browser data or switch devices and you lose the ability to manage that card. We cannot recover it — we never see it.
No warranty, no liability
ME COIN is provided "as is," for entertainment. We make no guarantees about uptime, value, vibes, or outcomes, and we're not liable for what a card does to your ego or your group chat. Use it in the spirit intended: a joke about scarcity that happens to run on real rails.
Questions, takedowns, or "that's me and I didn't agree to it" → use the Report link on the card, and we'll handle it.
