Custom martial arts cards
Custom martial arts cards for the belt they actually earned
Every belt is a test somebody had to pass, sometimes more than once. A card marks the rank in a way a strip of fabric in a drawer can't.

The short answer
Custom martial arts cards turn a dojo photo into a real trading card with the student's name, school, belt rank, and an optional serial or edition number. Cardbop is free to design and preview; a Display Card is $20 and a 10-card Pack is $35. A natural keepsake for a belt test, a first tournament, or a black-belt milestone.
How do you make a custom martial arts card?
Upload a photo you own, pick the Martial Arts layout, and fill in the name, team, position, and season. You preview the front, the back, and the display case live before paying anything. Designing is free — a Display Card is $20 and a 10-card team Pack is $35.
What size is a martial arts card?
Every Cardbop card is the standard trading-card size, 2.5 by 3.5 inches — the same as the martial arts cards you already collect, so it fits standard sleeves, toploaders, and binder pages. A Display Card comes sealed in its own display case.

Frequently asked questions
What should I put on a martial arts card?+
Name, school, discipline, and belt rank, plus the date of the test. On the back, an instructor's note or how many attempts the belt took — the second one usually matters more.
Is a card a good gift for a belt test?+
It's one of the better ones. A belt goes in a drawer; a card with the rank, the date, and the student's photo ends up on a shelf, and it costs less than most dojo merchandise.
Can I make cards for a whole class or dojo?+
Yes — a Card Pack holds 10 cards, so a belt-test group each gets their own with their own rank and date.
Does this work for any discipline?+
Yes. School, style, and rank are free text, so karate, taekwondo, judo, jiu-jitsu, and mixed programs all work.
How much does a custom martial arts card cost?+
A Display Card is $20 and a 10-card Card Pack is $35. Designing is free, and you can personalize one in minutes.
