Trade Tickets & FAQ

Trade Tickets are an NBA Top Shot feature providing utility for Moment NFTs. Collectors can trade a Moment for a Trade Ticket. You cannot buy, sell, or gift Trade Tickets, and they are only acquired by trading in a Moment

Each Moment, regardless of the Moment's rarity, is valued at one Trade Ticket only.

Trade Tickets can be accumulated and used to secure exclusive packs.

To view the number of Trade Tickets in your possession, hover over the Account icon in the top right corner.
