About TCG Vault

TCG Vault is an iPhone, iPad and Android app that scans trading cards with your camera, identifies them and shows what they are worth — then keeps your collection’s total value up to date.

What TCG Vault does

• Scan: point your phone camera at a card and TCG Vault identifies it — name, set, number and rarity.
• Price: see what the card currently trades for, refreshed daily, in more than 30 currencies.
• Collect: add cards to collections that keep a running total value, and follow price history over one, three and six months.
• Games: Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece Card Game, Disney Lorcana, Flesh and Blood, Star Wars: Unlimited, Digimon Card Game, Union Arena, Grand Archive, Gundam Card Game and Riftbound (League of Legends) — more than 240,000 cards in all.

TCG Vault is free to download on the App Store: search any card and see its price, 3 camera scans a day and one binder are free. Premium — $49.99 a year in the US, or weekly with a 3-day free trial — adds unlimited and multi-card scanning, unlimited binders, full price history, price alerts, a collection value chart, CSV import and export, widgets and Apple Watch.

Where the prices come from

Cards trade in separate markets, and we quote each one from its own source rather than converting between them. English prints are priced from TCGplayer in US dollars and from Cardmarket in euro — across the cards listed on both, the median ratio is 0.68 rather than the exchange rate, so a converted figure would be a price neither market shows. Japanese prints are priced in yen by 遊々亭, which also publishes what it pays to buy a card back.

Not to be confused with

It is not affiliated with Vault TCG (vaulttcg.app), the French TCGVault web app (tcgvault-app.com) or TCG-VAULT community (tcg-vault.io), the German company TCG Vault behind TCG Home, the @tcgvaults shop on Instagram or card shops called TCG Vault, other App Store apps called “TCG Vault”, “TCG Vault Pro” or “TCG Vault HQ”, or Google Play apps such as “Honest Collector: TCG Vault” and “TCG Card Vault”. TCG Vault has no token or cryptocurrency and does not sell cards.

Who makes it

TCG Vault is built by Appcellent (Appcellent Yazılım Hizmetleri A.Ş.), an app studio based in Bursa, Turkey. We build it for collectors who want to know what their cards are worth without typing card names into a search box one by one.
