Every shirt on curated.football has been checked, documented and authenticated before going live. Here's how it works — whether you're buying or selling.
For Buyers
01
Browse the catalogue
Every shirt comes with full documentation — player profile, match stats, chain of custody, and authentication certificate. You know exactly what you're getting.
02
Buy or make an offer
Buy at the listed price or submit an offer. The seller has 48 hours to accept, decline, or counter. No back-and-forth messaging — just a clean transaction.
03
Receive your piece
The seller ships directly to you. Shipping costs are at your charge. If the shirt doesn't match the listing, we'll arbitrate — no questions asked.
For Sellers
01
Submit your shirt
Fill out the form with the player's name, the match, your authentication certificate (MWS/Fabricks, COA, or direct provenance), and 6 photos of the shirt.
02
We verify within 24h
We check your certificate, enrich the listing with match data, player profile and editorial context. We approve or come back to you with questions — within 24 hours, 7 days a week.
03
Sell and get paid
Your shirt goes live. When it sells, you ship it. 7 days after confirmed delivery with no dispute, you receive the sale price minus our 10% commission.
Authentication
I
MWS / Fabricks
Shirts certified via MatchWornShirt's Fabricks platform. Certificate verified automatically via their online portal. The most traceable form of authentication available.
II
Recognised COA
Certificates of Authenticity from Fanatics Authentic, Beckett (BAS), or PSA/DNA — verified manually via their online portals. Each certificate number checked.
III
Direct provenance
Photo or video of the shirt being handed over by the player. Verified case by case. The rarest — and most personal — form of authentication.
Common Questions
What happens if the shirt doesn't match the listing?
Contact us within 48 hours of receiving the shirt. We'll look at the evidence and arbitrate. If the shirt is genuinely non-conforming, we'll handle the return process. Our decision is final.
Can I sell a shirt I previously bought on curated.football?
Yes. The shirt keeps its original reference number. A new listing is created (e.g. 2026-0001-2) and the ownership history is displayed on the listing. Every transaction adds to the provenance.
What if my certificate isn't from MWS, Fanatics, Beckett or PSA?
Contact us before submitting. We review edge cases individually. If your provenance is solid and verifiable, we may accept it — but we don't publish unverified shirts.
How long does authentication take?
We review every submission within 24 hours, 7 days a week. You'll receive a confirmation — or a request for more information — within that window.
What photos do I need to submit?
Six views minimum: front, back, name/number close-up, signature close-up, badge/patches, and inner label. Natural light, flat on a neutral surface. We'll let you know if anything's missing.
