Groupe Partouche celebrates gambling with an NFT collection
Groupe Partouche, now one of Europe’s leading leisure companies, is taking a step into Web3 by unveiling its first collection of non-fungible tokens (NFT): Joker Club.
Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, Groupe Partouche operates 42 casinos in France, Switzerland, Belgium and Tunisia, which constitute the majority of its business. With significant growth and now a leading player in the leisure industry in France, Groupe Partouche has multiplied its activities and now offers hotels, restaurants, spas, golf courses and beaches.
But today, through its subsidiary dedicated to the Web3 Partouche Multiverse, the group wants to put entertainment at the forefront with a collection of 8,888 NFTs with unique properties. These will be divided into 4 families: Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs
This collection, destined to become a central part of the Groupe Partouche loyalty system, offers a wide range of benefits, including discounts at the group’s many establishments, exclusive offers and freebies.
Each NFT represents a Joker carefully designed by the group’s artistic team, the product of 8 months of work, a sine qua non for the development of a collection that stands out from the others in the vast NFT ecosystem.
An NFT Joker is the result of the collaboration of 8 passionate artist profiles evolving in the 3D art, illustration and design sectors, a synergy of talents resulting in an iconography mixing casino, pop art, gaming and a bit of punk attitude.
And to embody these singular traits in the physical world, the communication around the Joker Club will be approached through the prism of originality and inspiration. That’s why information about this still mysterious project, like some of the NFT visuals, will gradually emerge through the expression of street art.

These NFTs will be available for purchase throughout the month of March, successively via a pre-sale, a mint open to those registered on the whitelist and then via an official mint accessible to all interested parties. Partouche Multiverse has chosen to mint these NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain (ETH), a choice motivated by the possibility of targeting communities around the world.
These will be divided into 4 families and will each have their own identity, including robots, zombies, astronauts, angels, demons, mobsters, punks, and many more.
The Joker Club, unique advantages within Groupe Partouche
The Joker Club’s objective is simple: to link the physical and Web3 worlds through an innovative experience that combines the best of both worlds. As a result, Joker NFT holders (up to 5 per person) will receive a number of benefits including:
- Up to 50% extra game credits;
- Discounts on hotels and restaurants in the group;
- Deals on shows;
- Private Joker Club events several times a year;
- Private online poker tournaments;
- And a Discord community.
These are just a few of the benefits to come for Joker Club NFT holders, which will evolve over time as the project is structured to be sustainable. Thus, those wishing to acquire one of these NFTs will be a pioneer in the evolution of the Joker Club and will benefit from long-term advantages.
In addition, Joker NFT owners will have complete freedom to use their NFTs for personal, commercial or even marketing purposes. And in order to support its community, the Joker Club will support communication to this effect where possible, as well as the provision of its distribution network
Joker 1/1, mix of textures from different families
The community spirit is also privileged within the Joker Club, since Groupe Partouche will make its numerous establishments and its event know-how available to the members of this private club. In other words, members will be able to meet through exclusive events organised in luxurious settings, with the aim of making virtual communities more real.
In a spirit of conviviality, Partouche Multiverse regularly invites Web3 communities in order to bring this new kind of microcosm to life and foster links between the various players in the ecosystem. A meeting has already been organised with the teams of the Wine Bottle Club, about which we already spoke to you.
And that’s not all: in order to get the Joker Club community vibrating to the rhythm of the game before the launch of NFT, weekly tournaments are already being organised to allow players to win physical prizes and points to be converted in the Joker’s Shop.
By playing a variety of games such as Rumble, Guess the Number and Partouche Quiz, players can collect points to spend on clothing and accessories, a whitelist for future projects and specific roles in the Joker Club’s Community Discord.
What to expect from the Joker Club in the coming months
Note the dates: on March 10th, it will be possible to buy an NFT from the Joker Club by attending the launch party which will take place in Forges-les-Eaux in Seine-Maritime. Interested parties will be able to get a preview of the NFT throughout the evening
The following day, the group’s largest establishments will continue a large-scale campaign to promote the collection until 19 March. During this period, it will still be possible to buy an NFT Joker Club through the pre-sale in Partouche casinos.
Then, on 20, 21 and 22 March, the NFT Joker Club mint will be open to whitelist members and early members of the Community Discord to reward them for their activity.
Finally, the official mint will be open to all on the Joker Club platform on March 23rd. You can also meet the project teams at the Paris Blockchain Week event from 20 to 24 March, where you can mint the remaining NFTs.
For the moment, the visuals of the future NFTs have not yet been revealed. The only clue we have is that the Spades family will represent builders and entrepreneurs, the Hearts family will represent artists, the Diamonds family will represent hotheads, and finally the Clubs family will represent adrenaline seekers. However, here is an exclusive NFT from each family:
Each Joker will have his own unique traits, which are primarily determined by his membership in one of these families. But despite their differences, they will all share the Joker’s Spirit, a philosophy of entertainment that is part madness, part fantasy, part daring and part originality.
Today, the Joker believes in one thing: life is a party. Whether you win or lose, the important thing is to have fun, enjoy yourself and enjoy life. That’s the Joker Spirit. “
Until then, you can already participate in the Joker Club experience through the tournaments mentioned above, or by staying tuned to the Twitter Spaces organised by the group to keep up to date with Web3 news, which have already gathered several thousand listeners.
