Each stop adds limited edition digital collectibles to their collection, building a record of fandom that\u2019s entirely their own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor so many fans around the world, tennis is a ritual \u2013 staying up late, keeping up with results, staying close to the story of the Tour,\u201d said Mark Epps, ATP Director of Communications and Web3. \u201cUntil now, there\u2019s never been a way to mark that journey. Collect was created to change that. It\u2019s a way for fans to look back and be recognised for their love of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans who join the experience will collect a variety of digital items throughout the season \u2013 no matter where in the world they\u2019re tuning in from. Each tournament unlocks a digital fan credential: an authentic, visually striking memento from the event. From there, fans can collect individual matches \u2013 available for just 24 hours on match day \u2013 logging the moments they followed in real time.<\/p>\n<p>Special edition storytelling collectibles will also be released throughout the season \u2013 capturing milestones, shared moments, and the meta-narratives that define the sport. Over time, it all adds up: collecting enters fans into the running to receive official physical merchandise from the Tour, layering on moments of surprise and delight.<\/p>\n<p>Collect was built in collaboration with Trace, the team behind last year\u2019s Momentum campaign, which saw 75,000 fans from 110 countries collect more than 777,000 matches in just eight days.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/news\/it-all-adds-up-hub\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"It All Adds Up\" style=\"width:100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1754046547_466_it-all-adds-up-banner.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrace was built on a singular idea: that being a true fan is worth recognising,\u201d said Tareq Nazlawy, CEO of Trace. \u201cIt\u2019s powerful, emotional, and deeply personal \u2014 and with Collect, we\u2019re turning that into something tennis fans can carry with them: a digital record of their journey and a way to unlock the best of the sport.
