NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token and this digital asset represents a good (virtual or physical). For more information about NFTs, you can find more information in our article ‘what are NFTs and how to use them’.
The Sayl platform allows businesses to sell NFTs via a built-in webshop. This webshop functionality allows business owners, marketeers and digital owners to quickly and easily start generating revenue from NFTs. Since the webshop functionality of Sayl allows you to put your own theme, branding and a custom domain, the NFT webshop can be set up perfectly in line with your brand’s image.
NFT marketplaces
When you learn about NFTs and the opportunities it creates for creators, one of the first things you encounter are NFT marketplaces. Some of the more renowned marketplaces are OpenSea, Rarible and Foundation. Most of these marketplaces exist on the Ethereum blockchain, and there’s a cost for creating a NFT (creation of a collection) and minting the NFTs in that collection, that must be paid in Ether. In this article we won’t go into the details of gas fees and the related fact that its price can fluctuate.

Next, with regard to NFTs, not all payment providers support the processing of NFTs and the payment with fiat money. However, we are seeing a rapid growing support for NFTs at several payment providers. Please take into consideration that selling NFTs could be considered by the legal team of the payment provider as high-risk, therefore onboarding your account could take a bit more time.
On which blockchain do we store the NFTs?
We store the NFTs on Hedera.
When a customer buys a NFT on the webstore provisioned by the Sayl platform, they will be invited to onboard in the Sayl wallet, where they will find the NFT. We do this to help non-expert crypto persons to have access to NFTs, without the necessity to understand how non-custodial wallets work.
