EINPresswire/ -- Snuffies, a family-owned collectibles store in Montana’s Flathead Valley, has been announced as the world’s first authorized POG retailer in more than 20 years. This historic partnership bridges nostalgia with cutting-edge blockchain technology, positioning Snuffies as the epicenter of POG’s global retail revival.

POG Meets Solana at Snuffies

As part of the launch, Snuffies will integrate Solana Pay for in-store purchases and introduce POG Coin, the official Solana-based meme coin of the POG brand, into its loyalty program. Shoppers can earn and spend POG Coin through purchases, with direct ties to POG’s Launchpad and Battle Game, where collectors compete for rare digital items and climb global leaderboards.

“POG isn’t just back, it’s evolving,” said Kyler Frisbee, CEO of POG Digital. “By combining physical collectibles with Solana-powered loyalty and redemption, we’re creating one of the first hybrid ecosystems that works in-store, online, and on-chain.”

The POG Prize Wall

Snuffies and POG have teamed up to launch the POG Prize Wall, a groundbreaking collection now live on Magic Eden, the world’s leading Solana marketplace:
