Frequently asked questions
What do you get a card collector who has everything?+
A card of themselves. A custom card puts the collector's photo, name, and personalized abilities or stats on a real printed card, sealed in a display case. It's the one card they can't buy anywhere. $29.99 for one Display Card and $49.99 for a 10-card Card Pack. Designing is free, and you can personalize one in minutes.
Is the display case a graded slab?+
A Cardbop Display Card is one custom card sealed in a clear display case with a personalized label. It is a presentation product, not a card graded, authenticated, certified, or assigned a numeric grade by a third-party grading service.
Will it fit their binder or toploaders?+
Yes. The card is the standard 2.5 × 3.5 inch size. A Display Card arrives sealed in its own case; Pack cards are unslabbed and fit standard sleeves.
Can I make a TCG-style card instead of a sports card?+
Yes. A Cardbop TCG card is a custom trading card in a game-card layout: your photo or artwork in a bordered window, a name with HP and an element symbol, a type line, up to two abilities with damage, and flavor text.
Is it a real collectible card from a set?+
No. It's a personal custom card, not part of any official set, and Cardbop doesn't assign it a market value. Its value is that it's them.
How much does it cost?+
$29.99 for one Display Card and $49.99 for a 10-card Card Pack. Designing is free, and you can personalize one in minutes.
