How support campaigns work

Supporting Nordensa Athletes

For each available player, fans can partner with Nordensa and enter into a partnership/joint venture with Nordensa to support and offer services to a player.

The contribution made by the fans will be used to support the player, including but not limited to covering the player’s expenses during their CHANCE – a trial period with one or more football clubs in Europe.

The amount raised from the support campaign will cover the player’s costs (visa, transport to Europe) and trial costs (transport across Europe, meals, accommodation, counseling and assistance provided by world-class scouting and psychology experts).

The amount raised will also be used by Nordensa to provide other services to a Player such as:

●      creating visibility for the athlete toward fans and clubs;
●      help build a personal brand to boost reputation and attract sponsorships;
●      set up social media platforms and create content;
●      take care of, guide and teach the player how to deal with his fanbase;
●      provide mental health coaching;

Each fan can contribute to the partnership with Nordensa as little as €30 for one share. The amount a fan decides to contribute will be proportional to the rewards they are eligible to receive from the joint venture. The only limit on the amounts a backer can contribute is the maximum remaining value of the support campaign.

If the contribution goal, as set by Nordensa, is not reached, or if the player decides to pursue other opportunities on his own once the support campaign is underway or the once contribution goal is reached, all backers, after taking into account the costs incurred - get their money back.

The rewards

If the player gets signed by a football club at the end of the trial period, the backers of the player, via the joint-venture, will be entitled to receive and share amongst them up to 8% of the player’s salary for 5 years, as well as other perks. This 8% is the Service Fee payable by the Player for the services provided to him by the backer-Nordensa partnership. The rewards a fan is eligible to receive are proportional to the amount they decide to contribute to their partnership with Nordensa.

If the player doesn’t get signed by one of the football clubs he participated in trials at, gets signed by another football club or returns to the club that owns them (i.e. where they played prior to the trial period), the Player will not be obliged to pay a Service Fee and the backers will not be entitled to receive rewards. The player is at liberty to sign or to not sign with a club where he goes on trial. In similar fashion, a club receiving the backed player on trial has no obligation to offer a contract to the player it receives on trial.

Each backer’s rewards are based on the contribution made to the partnership with Nordensa, from the total maximum value of each backing goal.

1 share (€30) will entitle a backer to receive a financial reward of about 0,01% of the player’s salary for 5 years. If they make it big during this time, the rewards go up as well.
Let’s consider a possible scenario.
A backed Nordensa Athlete will probably start his journey in a league where the average salary is 25k/year.
Each 1% of this salary equals 250 euros.
After one year, he might manage to reach the next level, playing in a league where the average salary is 160k/year.
Now, each 1% of his salary equals 1600 euros.
Then, he might get transferred at a top team and play in a European tournament. His team is in a league where the average salary is 335k/year.
Each 1% of his salary equals 3350 euros.
By the forth or fifth year, if he does really well, he might make it to a top team in a top league, where the average salary is 1,6 mil/year.
This means each 1% of his salary equals 16000 euros.

In the above scenario, 1 share (€30) would entitle you to rewards totaling €214,5.

Up to 8% of the player’s salary, for 5 years, will be shared amongst his backers. Even if the player changes teams during this period.

Backers will also have access to private materials and information about Nordensa players, limited edition merch items, and other surprise perks.Most importantly, football lovers get to have real influence and ownership in football for the first time.

When rewards start

If your backed player gets signed by a football club at the end of the trial period and starts getting paid, the player has an obligation to pay the Player Support Fee, the profits from the Service which will be distributed to you by the joint venture through periodic payments based on your contribution as a backer. Profits being distributed mean that costs incurred by the partnership between Nordensa and the backers to deliver the services to the Player will be accounted for.

The more players you support, the more chances you have to benefit from their success.

Please note that there is no guaranteed return from partnering with Nordensa.
There can be situations in which the benefits will be either limited or non-existent, such as (but not limited to) when the specific player is not signed by one of the collaborating football clubs or gets seriously injured, or does not pursue a football player career after the trial period, etc.
