The Head of Growth will lead user acquisition and retention strategies for Veriswap’s trading card marketplace, focusing on analytics and campaign execution.
About Veriswap
Veriswap is a barter marketplace for trading cards, operating within the $10B+ sports card secondary market. We’re focused on creating a new swap economy because we believe the swaps market is 5x larger than the cash sales market for collectibles. Our mission is to empower collectors by enabling them to trade sports cards anytime, anywhere.
We’ve completed over $160M in transactions in just 3 years, with trades as large as $300K on the platform. We serve 120,000 users and the trading card market is at all-time highs, with $400M+ of cards sold in the last month.
Our founding team comes from Columbia (ex-finance) and Brown (ex-Google). Together, we are building something truly exciting and are looking for driven individuals to help shape the future of collectibles.
