New York – September 08, 2026 -- Digital collectibles app Trove has launched Collection Dividends, a feature that pays collectors a minimum of 2% annually on the value of their collection, calculated and paid out monthly in Trove Cash.
Collectors earn rewards without staking or locking up their cards
The dividend is available to all Trove collectors and does not require staking assets, locking up holdings, or transferring ownership. Trove says the benefit recognizes collections as assets with value beyond the initial purchase, calling it a first-of-its-kind offering not currently available on other major collectibles platforms.
Trove built its platform on three core promises to collectors
The company frames Collection Dividends as the latest of three pillars underpinning its collector experience: curating desirable cards, offering 100% and forever buyback options for liquidity, and now rewarding long-term collection building on the platform.
"The collectibles industry has spent a tremendous amount of energy making the purchase experience more exciting, but has completely ignored the collector experience," said Michael Katz, co-founder and CEO of Trove. He added that while many platforms claim to serve collectors, few back that claim with real investment.
Founded in 2025, Trove pairs digital pack openings with real, vaulted cards
Trove, founded in 2025, lets users open digital packs while owning authenticated physical cards across major sports, Pokémon, and One Piece, stored securely in the PSA Vault. After a purchase, collectors can keep building their collection on Trove, have cards shipped directly to them, or sell back immediately to Trove for 100% of fair market value.
The platform also emphasizes transparency, offering PSA-verified inventory, provable fairness for verifying outcomes, and flexible sellback options. Trove's founding team consists of lifelong collectors with more than two decades of combined experience building technology companies across data, consumer behavior, and emerging tech.
