KripkesManialink

Kripkes Platforms, Inml., doing business as Kripkes Manialink. is a publicly traded Manialink conglomerate. It is the game's leading distributor of in-game resources, including cosmetics such as Skins, Horns and Avatars or Tracks; in addition it provides TrackMania server hosting, advertisement, TrackMania-centered adult content, and more.

Kripkes Manialink was founded on March 26, 2010 by Kripke, a well-known community member. It has grown rapidly by offering a large amount of high-quality resources under the sub-title "No stolen content from other manialinks! 100% kripke production !^^..." and is currently the highest-valued Manialink at over 673,4 million cc as of 2024. Due to its anti-competitive practices and monopolistic position, it has received large amounts of criticism and scrutiny.

Humble beginnings
At the start of 2010, Manialinks were still relatively new (first being added in update 21.01_03g) and Kripke, an up-and-coming player decided to start a small-scale online TrackMania storefront selling car skins. Having started his TrackMania career in late 2008, he had gotten quite competent at painting skins in the in-game painting tool and was also experimenting creating custom 3D-models and painting them outside the game. He created a simple page and sold each skin for 10 cc (pre-inflation).
