It also stayed on Binge Networks for the first season and was later sold to Urbanflix TV.

The series stars Connie Wang, Ryan Allen and Shelley Thompson. As of October 2019, Tokens has amassed more than 500,000 combined views across Facebook and YouTube. Season 2 of Tokens was financed in 2020 but due to the outbreak of Covid, it was not able to go to camera until the fall of 2021. After filming and post were completed, it launched on The Roku Channel in January of 2023. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
