# NFT Collection contract

### 🤨 How the NFT Drop contract works

In contrast to the [NFT Drop contract](https://docs.imintify.com/smart-contract/pre-built-contracts/nft-drop-contract), the NFT Collection contract does **not support lazy minting** for your NFTs. Instead, NFTs are promptly minted upon their addition to the collection.

This allows you to transfer or sell the NFTs on a Marketplace and execute any other actions typically associated with NFTs.

Additionally, for advanced scenarios, the NFT Collection offers signature-based minting capabilities.

### **🔥 Use Cases & Examples**

You can utilize the NFT Drop contract for various purposes, such as:

* Launching a PFP (profile picture) Collection featuring NFTs with distinct combinations of traits.
* Seamlessly transfer or sell your assets on a Marketplace without claiming them first.
* Create an exclusive 1-of-many collection showcasing your photography.
* create a one-of-a-kind NFT with specialized utility.
* Mint your artwork as NFTs through minting and sell them on a Marketplace.
