Overview
- Gespa opened a preliminary inquiry and is gathering information to determine if FIFA Collect’s offering is covered by Swiss gambling rules.
- The RTB tokens confer a right to buy specific 2026 World Cup tickets from a set-aside pool and let holders bypass the general queue, but they are not tickets.
- The collectibles run on a FIFA-branded Avalanche-based network built with Modex and can be resold on the official marketplace.
- Recent listings show prices from about $149 for early group-stage options to more than $7,000 for high-demand matches like the Azteca opener, and some reports point to eight-figure sales.
- Under Swiss law, Gespa can order ISP blocks and refer cases to prosecutors if violations are found, while no enforcement action has been announced.
