Cheki is a collectible polaroid picture of a celebrity that's usually taken and sold at events. Since each picture is unique, fans will buy and trade chekis with each other. Some events also offer fans to pay to take a cheki together with the celebrity. For international fans it's possible to order chekis online, either signed or unsigned.

Cheki in the Time of Coronavirus was a project aimed at supporting celebrities who lost revenue due to cancelled concerts by urging fans to purchase chekis.

Why cheki? It’s one of the few merchandise items that many fans are happy to collect no matter how many they already own and they’re easy to sign and personalize. We want everyone who supports these artists during these difficult times to get something in return for their help.
