Yankees Legend Derek Jeter Launches Trading-Card Venture

Former Yankees star Derek Jeter has entered into the world of sports collectibles in his retirement.

The 48-year-old began a trading-card platform called Arena Club along with Brian Lee, who is the former chief executive officer of Honest Co. The company, which launched on Thursday, provides card collectors with online showrooms to buy, sell and trade card collections.

Jeter’s company put a plan in place to combat scamming on the site, which often happens with collectible items. Whenever a card is entered into the system, the card will be graded and then sent to a vault owned by the company.
