TM ABExtremeAJ / editorial issue 00
The network, in print.
A digital issue and paper-bag edition for discovering the people, places, and offers that give a growing CardMeld network its pulse.
01 / Two formats, one habit
A magazine you can open anywhere — and carry into the next tap.
TM ABExtremeAJ is building the magazine as an editorial front door to the CardMeld experience: a place to find a merchant, a reason to visit, and a clearer sense of what the member network is becoming.
01
A living online edition for stories, seasonal discoveries, and published member offers as they are approved.
02
A physical route into the same discovery loop — placed where a local purchase already becomes part of the day.
Mark study / owner artwork
The visual language is intentionally tactile: marks, patches, and apparel can introduce the world before a published story or merchant placement is confirmed.
02 / From story to tap
Editorial discovery becomes a member habit.
The magazine is designed to connect attention to action without pretending the whole network is live today.
- 01
Read
Meet the places, people, and moments that are approved for the current issue.
- 02
Visit
Turn a feature or offer into a reason to show up at a participating merchant.
- 03
Tap
As the network grows, the CardMeld member and card experience can carry that discovery into one repeatable gesture.
03 / Published placements
The issue desk, kept honest.
Only approved placements appear here. The feed is intentionally separate from merchant enrollment, so an intake lead never becomes public proof.

Roadmap note
As the network grows, the magazine is designed to widen discovery across more regions and connect more member journeys. Coverage, acceptance, and any broader network claims will follow the evidence of the network we build.
