User reviews

Perfect for my collection…

I’ve collected Pokémon cards for years and have had them sitting in binders for the past decade without really knowing what they might be worth. This app was exactly what I needed!

I scanned the cards that looked like they might be worth something and found a few with estimated values over $100 each! I know that might not be a fortune for a rare Pokémon card, but to me, that’s pretty exciting for something that’s just been sitting on a shelf.

My kids don’t really use them, so guess what?! Time to see what I can cash in! So glad I found this app. Otherwise, those cards probably would’ve stayed in their binders for another ten years! And I would have had no understanding of what they were worth and probably would have gotten far less when I go to sell them.

Best scanning customer experience and free!

This is app is the first pokemon scanning and grading app that is pretty accurate and has no costs associated ! You can just hover over a card to get instant value even without a WiFi connection !

Best card scanning app

I have used a lot of card scanning apps and this by far is the easiest scanner to use. It is easy to scan the card, gives me more information on my card then any other scanner, stupid ads do not show up when I try to use it, and as a average card collector it saves me time having to look up how much a card is worth.
