HOW IT WORKS

From camera to binder.

  1. Scan the card

    Point your camera at a card. Set, number and language are read off the card itself, not matched by name.

  2. Confirm the printing

    Shadowless or Unlimited? Mintproof shows you the tell, the drop shadow on the art box, and prices each printing separately.

  3. See the price, with its receipt

    Every number is labelled with where it came from and how recent it is. No recent sale means it says so.

  4. Check if grading pays

    Put in what a 10 actually sold for and the gem rate you believe, and Mintproof does the expected-value sum against the fee.

  5. Into your binder

    Your collection totalled as the market moves, split into as many binders as you keep.

Example only: the card, prices and totals in this sequence are the sample shown in Mintproof’s store screenshots and on this page.
WHY MINTPROOF

Most card apps guess. A guess costs you money.

Name-match a card and you get a price for a Charizard, not your Charizard. Round a missing sale into a multiplier and you get a number nobody has ever paid. Mintproof was built against three specific ways collectors get burned.

35%
The wrong printing

A Shadowless Charizard and an Unlimited one look identical in a photo and differ by about a third in price. Mintproof reads the tell — the drop shadow on the art box — and prices the copy in your hand, not its cousin.

Invented prices

Every figure carries where it came from and how recent it is — eBay sold, TCGplayer, PriceCharting. When there is no recent sale, the app shows a blank and says why. A confident wrong number costs more than an honest empty one.

Grading roulette

Submitting a card costs money and a month. Put in what a 10 actually sold for and the gem rate you believe, and Mintproof does the expected-value sum against the fee — before you post it, not after.

WHO IT’S FOR

Built for the people who check.

If you’ve ever paid for a card and then wondered, this is for you.

The collector
Knows every card in the binder — wants to know what the binder is worth today, and which gaps are cheapest to close.
The flipper
Buys at shows and lists that night. Needs the real comp, the fee math, and a printing check in the aisle.
The one who found a shoebox
Doesn’t know a Shadowless from a Base Set 2. Point, scan, and get a straight answer — no account, no jargon.
WHAT IT DOES

Six things, done properly.

✓ Base Set · 4/102 · Unlimited

Scan to the exact printing

HOW IT PRICES

Every number says where it came from.

RAW

Where a raw price comes from

TCGAPIs. Every card is priced at the exact printing and condition, so a Near Mint Unlimited copy is never quoted from a Shadowless sale.

When there is no recent sale, the app says so. It never falls back to a multiplier and presents the result as observed.

GRADED

Where a graded price comes from

PriceCharting, joined to the same card by its TCGplayer id — not by name, which is how a search for “Ancient Mew” returns a different product at a different price.

The join is verified before any number is used, so a card with no confirmed match shows nothing rather than someone else’s price.

THE ONE RULE

No invented prices, ever. If there is no recent sale to point at, Mintproof shows an honest empty state. A confident wrong number costs you more than a blank one.

Is it free?
Looking up any card is free and unlimited, no account. Free scanning is 10 cards a month and a binder that holds 50. Pro is $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year for 300 scans a month, an unlimited binder, two years of history and every printing priced separately — 3 days free first.
Does it price graded cards?
Where a grade has actually sold, yes, via PriceCharting. Where it hasn’t, the row shows a dash — never a guess. PSA population is not something any vendor sells, so it is shown as “no grader feed”.
Which cards does it know?
English and Japanese. 63,000 cards — every English set from Base Set to the current expansion, and 458 Japanese expansions including the 30th anniversary sets. Japanese cards scan, price and chart like any other, and are marked JP so you never mistake one for its English printing. Pokémon-only on purpose — that is how it can tell a Shadowless from an Unlimited.
What do you do with my photos?
A scan is sent once to identify the card and is not stored. No ad network, no session recording, and nothing that follows you to another app. The app does report crashes and anonymous usage counts so we can see what is broken — never your cards, prices or email — and there is a switch for it in Profile. The privacy policy is written against the code.

Your collection, clearly priced.
