Magikard is a tracker for your physical Pokémon TCG card collection. You get one slot per Pokémon (#1-1025) and log the best real card you own for each one. When you pull a better card, upgrade the slot!

Click "Sign in with Google" in the top bar. Your collection is created automatically on first login. No extra setup needed.

Yes! Core features — tracking your collection, wishlisting cards, searching cards, browsing sets, viewing badges, and adding friends — are completely free. Pro is an optional upgrade that unlocks extras like binder view, stats, and shared collections.

Click any Pokemon slot on the Pokedex grid, then search for the card you own. Select it to fill that slot. You can also use Snap to add cards by photo, or the Import page to add cards in bulk. New here? The first visit to the home page shows a short interactive walkthrough — you can replay it anytime via the "How to add cards" chip in the filter bar.

Snap identifies a card from a photo and adds it to your collection — point your phone camera at a card, tap "Snap!", and we match it against the database. Matching is most reliable in decent lighting with the whole card in frame; if a snap mis-identifies your card, just tap "search instead" to find it manually. Spotted a bad match? Feedback helps us keep tuning it.

Each slot shows your best card for that Pokemon. Cards are ranked by rarity tier: NonHolo < ReverseHolo < Holo < HalfFullArt < FullArt. Picking a higher-tier card for a slot you already own is an upgrade.

Yes. Each card in your collection has a quantity counter. Use the +/- controls on the slot page to adjust it. Cards with quantity greater than 1 show up on the Duplicates page for easy trade tracking.

Every card with a non-holo printing also gets a reverse holo you can collect separately — the R pill next to N on the slot, set and illustrator pages.

A few sets print more than one reverse holo of the same card. Prismatic Evolutions, Black Bolt and White Flare each have a Poké Ball (PB) printing, and their Pokémon a Master Ball (MB) one too, alongside the ordinary energy-pattern reverse — so those cards show up to four pills. Ascended Heroes does it differently: each Pokémon has exactly one extra, either a Team Rocket (TR) printing for the Team Rocket's Pokémon or its own ball — Poké (PB), Love (LB), Friend (FB), Quick (QB) or Dusk (DB), named per card. Each is a separate card you can own, and completion counts them all — unless you set completion to "one of each card" in Settings.

These extra printings have no TCGPlayer price of their own in our data, so they show no price rather than the ordinary reverse holo's — a Master Ball is worth far more. Snap can't tell them apart either: the pattern is in the foil, not the artwork, so a photo matches the ordinary printing and you can switch it afterwards.

Only if you want them to. Settings has two ways to complete a set:

• Master set — every printing counts on its own, so a set with 120 cards and 74 reverse holos is out of 194.
• One of each card — a card counts once and any printing fills it, so the same set is out of 120 and a Master Ball reverse ticks the card off.

It changes the set, illustrator and cost-to-complete numbers only. Your collection is untouched either way — every printing you own stays exactly where it is, and you can switch back whenever you like.

Market prices come from TCGPlayer via the PokemonTCG.io API. Prices are cached and refreshed every few hours. Some cards (especially those imported from TCGdex) may not have price data.

It's an estimate of what you'd pay on the open market to finish a collection view, based on TCGPlayer market prices:

• Pokédex — sum of the cheapest-likely card for each empty dex slot (the lowest-tier pokémon card we have price data for).
• Set / Illustrator — sum of every missing normal and reverse-holo variant you don't yet own. On the "one of each card" setting it's one printing per card you're missing entirely.
• Card lists — sum of every card in the list that isn't in your collection.

Prices without TCGPlayer data (including TCGdex imports) are excluded, so the number is an approximation — treat it as a rough order of magnitude, not a quote.

Cards are automatically assigned a tier based on their rarity from PokemonTCG.io:

• FullArt — Illustration Rare, Hyper, Secret, Rainbow, Ultra Rare, V, VMAX, VSTAR, GX, and more
• HalfFullArt — ex (lowercase), LV.X, Prime, BREAK, Double Rare, ACE
• Holo — anything with "Holo" not in the tiers above
• ReverseHolo — the reverse-holo printing of a non-holo card, in any pattern
• NonHolo — Common, Uncommon, Rare, Promo, and others

Yes. When the tier mapping rules are updated, all cards and collection entries are automatically re-tiered on the next app restart. Your collection adjusts without any action on your part.

Open the Friends page and enter either your friend's email address or their Magikard profile handle (the part after /profile/, e.g. @ash-ketchum). Email invites also work for people not yet on Magikard — they'll be linked when they sign up with that address.

Yes. Once a friendship is accepted, you can view their pokédex as a read-only grid from your Profile page.

Pro unlocks:

• Binder view — 3x3 page visualization of your collection
• Collection stats — completion %, tier breakdown, set progress, and collection value history (daily market value vs. what you paid)
• Smart suggestions — personalized next moves based on badge progress, gen/set gaps, and tier upgrades
• Progress over time — chart tracking your collection growth
• Shared collections — co-track with a friend
• Unlimited card lists — free accounts are limited to 3
• Unlimited decks — free accounts are limited to 3

Pro is pay-what-you-want, including $0. You choose your amount at checkout. Payments are processed securely through Stripe with Google Pay support.

We store your Google account ID, display name, email, and profile picture URL for authentication. Your collection data (cards, quantities, notes, prices paid), friendships, badges, and activity logs are stored to provide the app's features. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Yes. Go to your Profile page and scroll to the Danger Zone section. Clicking "Delete Account" permanently removes your user profile, entire collection, activity history, badges, friendships, and all associated data. This action cannot be undone.

No. Your collection data stays in our database. We use Google OAuth for login, Stripe for payments, and Azure for hosting — each processes only the minimum data needed. We never sell or share your personal data.

We use a single authentication cookie to keep you signed in. It's HTTP-only, secure, and expires after 30 days. We don't use tracking or analytics cookies.

Pokemon data comes from PokeAPI. Card data comes from the open PokemonTCG.io dataset (~17,000 cards), read from its public data repository so new sets keep arriving even when the API itself is down. For cards missing from that source, TCGdex is used as a fallback.

Yes. The Import page accepts bulk card lists from tcgcollector, plus the Magikard JSON/CSV format produced by the Export page (perfect for backups or moving accounts — re-importing the same file is safe and won't duplicate anything). You can also import individual cards from TCGdex on any slot page if the card isn't in the main database.

On the slot page, use the TCGdex import option to search for and add cards that aren't in the primary database. These cards get a special tcgdex: prefix and may not have price data.
