Learn more about the Foundation on The Sandbox.

The Foundation

The Sandbox offers a diverse range of incentives geared at kickstarting the user-generated metaverse.

The Sandbox has some funds, grants and programs to encourage skilled and knowledgeable community members to take part in the growth of the platform and provide some great content for others to enjoy, while earning rewards in the process.

With our new royalties system, 2.5% of the sale price of each asset sold at The Marketplace supplies The Sandbox Foundation with SAND to distribute among The Game Maker Fund, staking, and rewards.

Programs Supported by the SAND Foundation

The Game Maker Fund and Creators Fund have both supported the ecosystem by offering grants to incentivise high quality content and game production in The Sandbox. The Ambassador Program has provided high quality support to the community.

Creator Fund

Creator Fund (or Artist Fund)

The Creator Fund closed when minting assets became a public feature.

The Creator Fund was a program for asset creators with proven skills in asset design or voxel art. Accepted artists were provided training, assigned content to create for set compensation in SAND, and permitted to mint some of their highest quality creations if selected by The Sandbox.

Game Maker Fund

Game Maker Fund

A fund for Experience builders with proven skills in game design or level design. This program has changed to adapt to the community's access to 体験の公開 on their own LAND.
