Selling & trading

6 updates

Trade cards, not just sell them

Just shipped

Take a card in on trade and Cardboard does the math for you. Put cash on either side, do a straight swap, or trade a couple of cards for one — it works out the fair value and your real profit automatically. It even doubles as a quick way to just buy or sell for cash.

Show Mode — your table's checkout

New

At a card show? Ring people up straight from your phone or iPad. Drop cards into a sale, bundle them, haggle the total, and see your profit for the whole show at a glance.

Profit that actually counts the fees

New

Sold on eBay, PayPal, or with a card reader? Cardboard now subtracts the fees for you, so the profit you see is the money you actually keep — not a number that ignores what the platform takes.

Consignment tracking

New

Selling cards for other people? Keep track of whose cards are whose, your split, and exactly what you owe — then send them a clean statement when it's time to settle up.

Your own storefront

New

Flash a QR code or share a link and buyers get a tidy page of everything you have for sale. Your cost and profit always stay private.

Coming from CollX or Ludex?

New

Bring your whole collection over from a spreadsheet in a couple of minutes — Cardboard maps the columns for you. And you can export yours back out anytime.

Prices & the market

6 updates

Interactive price charts

New

Tap any card's value for a full-screen chart. Swipe across the last 30 days up to a full year, drag your finger to read the exact price on any date, and see how it's trending.

Watch your whole portfolio grow

New

Tap your total collection value to see it charted over time — the ups, the downs, and where you stand today.

Know what's worth grading

New

See what a card's worth raw versus graded, and whether sending it in to PSA actually pays off after the grading cost.

Quick price check

New

Scan a card to see its value on the spot without adding it to your inventory — perfect for negotiating a deal in person.

Find deals & track your wants

New

Tell Cardboard the cards you're hunting and it keeps an eye out for you. Flip Finder points out cards listed below market value — the ones worth a second look.

Faster, and works offline

Improved

Card values load noticeably quicker, and once you've viewed a card its details stick around even when you lose signal.

Ask Cardboard

New

Your AI sidekick for cards

New

A built-in assistant that knows your collection and the market. Ask what a card's worth, what you should grade next, or how your portfolio's doing — just type it like you'd text a friend.

Your collection & account

4 updates

Sign in & sync instantly

New

Create an account and your collection syncs across all your devices the moment anything changes — add a card on your phone, it's on your iPad seconds later.

Usernames & profiles

New

Claim your own username and set up a profile that's yours.

Showcase your collection

New

Share your collection on a personal page that feels like you — a way to show off what you've built, not just a list of stuff for sale.

Tell us what to build next

New

A feedback board right inside the app, so you can shape where Cardboard goes from here.

Look & feel

2 updates

Dark mode

New

A proper dark mode has landed — pick System, Light, or Dark and the whole app follows along.

Little things that add up

Improved

Swipe from the left edge to go back, tap a card photo to blow it up, search your inventory by photo, cleaner card designs with richer titles, a live "scanning" animation while a card is read — plus a big pile of polish and fixes throughout.
