Every home has its preferred card game
It has been clear to us from the start, that this project should be available to the entire world, and that the card games included should be relevant to all.
To achieve this, the site will include the most famous games, alongside country or culturally specific card games. Our platform will allow you to discover them all.
Playing card connect people. And there is a deck of cards in almost every household. Playing games is a perfect way to disconnect from all the news and other media.
“Cartamundi is a global group with a strong local network. The stayandplay.cards platform is a unique collaboration between all the different Cartamundi companies, to connect people,” says Stefaan Merckx, CEO of Cartamundi. “It is the perfect way to make our purpose ’Sharing the Magic of Playing Together’ tangible.”
More than 100 card games available
Cartamundi is most famous for its brands like Bicycle, Fournier, Ace, Grimaud, and Copag. Insiders of the different markets and experts of various teams have been working together to establish this new platform.
Which games do Brazilians play? How do the Germans play with cards? What is a good game to play alone? www.stayandplay.cards will bring all these insights, cultural differences, and of course, “how to play” together, in one easy place.
When the platform launches on the 31st of March 2020, a total of 100 card games will be available. New games will be added regularly. In the spirit of growing a global card game playing community, we plan, in the coming weeks, the ability for users to add and suggest additional content.
The website will be ready in 8 days
Intracto was the perfect partner to build this platform. Intracto CEO Pieter Janssens says: “When we received a call about the project, we were immediately excited. In moments of crisis, a company must look for ways to give back to society. In this way, we help to make this additional “family time” more fun. We are proud to be a part of this project. A big thank you to our team and to the experts of Cartamundi for stepping up and creating this project so quickly.”
