This is for the market to decide. Both the Alpha Pro Pass and Alpha Next Gen Avatar come with their own set of unique benefits, utility and perks. You can sell your 2D avatar on any participating secondary market that allows for royalties to be paid.
50% of avatar royalties go to the Community Treasury.
The Avatar's rarity, supply, and benefits they unlock. is based on their class.
King and Queen Avatars are the rarest. Each character in each collection is unique, with a different rarity score and attributes.
The higher the rarity score, the rarer and more valuable the Avatar is considered to be as a collectible. Other factors, including market demand and desirability, can also determine the value of an Avatar.
A full rarity schedule will be provided in the coming weeks.
The Alpha series unlocks additional benefits during the season and include a Alpha pro-pass membership ranging from 1 to 5 years.

Additionally, Checkmate bears no responsibility and assumes no liability for the security and handling of the funds stored within a third-party wallet.
As a guardrail, we want to ensure that the person registering your wallet is authorized by you. We also want to provide you with as much information as possible, enabling your success. By asking Federations to register in advance, we can also onboard parties who aren't well-versed in this space.
The media kit includes suggested promotional copy in English, graphic assets, that you can use straight out of the box or customize for your campaign. It also contains relevant information, such as key dates, and a link to register your Federation wallet. In addition, you'll receive an invite to a Federation Discord channel where you can ask our team questions as they come up.
Once you have registered your Federation, we will send you a promotional code/link for the private sale and pre-sale allow spots. To redeem your passes, we will send all participating Federations a post-campaign form where you can upload the list of winners and their contact details, along with examples and links of how you promoted the pre and public sale. Once we receive the form, we will distribute the codes the codes to winners and and provide you with your internal codes directly.
Of course, a number of Avatars have been held back for promotional purposes. However please note, the Alpha series is strictly limited and the allocation for this will not be increased outside the first mint or discounted. Outside this there is still room to work with your partner on future drops, bundles and offers that benefit the community. Email hello@checkmate.live if you wish to discuss.

Pass Types in Checkmate:
Yes, you can sell your pro pass if you don't want it. It is a bonus entitlement, and you own it. The pass will be dropped to the current holder of Lil'mate at the time of the drop, and once activated, it's locked to the registered player account. If it's not activated, the time expiration will start ticking over six months after Day Zero.
Day ZERO is when players be players and it's all about the W. Some play for glory, some for rep, this is when it's about the big W for the moolah.
Absolutely, anyone who purchases a Lill'mate off your link will be attributed as a Federation sale.
A wallet in web3 refers to a crypto wallet. It can store cryptocurrencies and NFTs and allows you to transact digitally with other users or markets. Think of gas fees as Ethereum blockchain transaction costs. Checkmate has no say in setting gas fees – they are determined by supply and demand across the network (blockchain).
Checkmate recommends you use a non-custodial wallet for storing your collectables and NFTs. See here for a list of wallets that work with Checkmate.
A secondary marketplace is a platform where users are able to buy NFTs to add to their collection and/or sell NFTs to other users.
This is subject to the marketplace you use.
