While augmented reality has been around for a while, it’s gotten extremely popular as of late. And so Tim Hortons gets in on the hype with its own AR app—which also coincides with the launch of Tim Hortons Collector’s Series 2016-2017 NHL Trading Cards. The Tim Hortons Augmented Reality Hockey Cards app lets you scan the cards you buy to see models of NHL stars appear on your Android or iOS device. And if you’re a collector, you can put various card combinations side by side to get hidden animations.

You can buy a three-card pack from Tim Hortons for $1 plus tax with a drink or $1.99 plus tax for just the cards. Tim Hortons partnered with NHL and NHLPA as well as exclusive licensed trading card Upper Deck.
