Physical medals/badges
in General
Part of the fun on Ingress is seeing and earning new medals/badges and I know that Niantic is always looking for ways of making more money from Ingress.
I wondered if people would order stickers or pin badges of their medals/badges earned in the game? I recall another app I had a while back (GetGlue) where you could link
your account and then order a sticker sheet of your badges every few months.
I would probably be willing to spend something each month to get a full pin badge set of my medals. Just an idea to put out there.

I love this idea! I like the idea that you need to have earned the badge in game in order to be able to buy the physical badge. If they just sold badges, I wouldn't be interested because everyone can get them, which would sort of cheapen them.
My preference would be for metal pins over stickers, but the idea of getting a sticker sheet of your current badges is cool as well.
I love this, it would take a bit of Admin from Niantic, but could potentially be a good source of revenue. We agents take so much pride in our badges, and having some beautiful, official, merchandise to match the badges in our scanner would be amazing. I’d happily chip in a few ££‘s for some physical badges.
These used to be made for L16s in California as a set by a non-Niantic creator. They looked great. It would be great to have a Niantic source for them.
for all of the old school players from years ago. I don't remember where I even got it from
