What's New in VendBuddy

1.5.0

August 17, 2026

VendBuddy 1.5.0 The run-the-business layer arrives on mobile. NEW • Performance analytics (Pro): the complete P&L dashboard on your phone and iPad — revenue, inventory, deals, events, audience, and operations, with period, game, and event filters, prior-period comparisons, and CSV export. • Price trends (Pro): market prices across the app now carry rising/falling badges — including in the deal builder, so you know whether a card is climbing or sliding before you set an offer. • Automatic repricing (Pro): VendBuddy proposes sell-price updates once a day from your rule (percent of market, cost-basis floor, minimum price). Nothing reprices without your approval — review and approve from the new price updates queue. • Price rounding: every price VendBuddy suggests now lands on a clean number. Choose nearest, always up, or always down, and build your own value-based rounding tiers (Pro) with presets to start from. • Helper accounts and permissions (Pro): helpers sign in with their own login and work your inventory, deals, and labels. You control what each helper sees — cost basis, profit, settings. Vendors who help other vendors can switch accounts right from Settings. • Better low-light scanning: the scanner automatically brightens and steadies captures in dim show halls. IMPROVED • New More tab: Performance, Events, Card Locations, and Settings in one place. Home's control center surfaces pricing alerts, labels to print, and your next event. • Upcoming events now list soonest first, and event screens open with proper navigation and a close button. • Card Locations redesigned: fully tappable rows, a native edit mode, and bottom-sheet add/rename. • Inventory: filter by market trend and sort by price drift to find the cards with the most money on the table. • iPad: the scanner now works correctly in landscape mounts, and layouts line up across tabs. FIXED • Show reminder and show-ended notifications now open the event reliably. • The scanner no longer auto-captures when no card is in view. • Graded cards can no longer be saved without a grade, and card condition (LP/MP/HP/DMG) now adjusts the market price in deals and inventory. • Dollar amounts show thousands separators, plus many smaller fixes throughout.

Everything I need in one place

I started using VendBuddy about three weeks ago and I'm never looking back. It makes it easy to scan all of my cards, print labels with prices and barcodes, and track my cost basis and sale prices at shows.

The card scanner is fast and accurate and keeps my inventory organized. The show prep feature is something I didn't know I needed. Before each show, VendBuddy flags any cards whose market price has drifted from my sticker price, and I can re-price the whole batch in a few minutes instead of selling underpriced cards all weekend or spending hours the night before repricing everything.

At shows, the labels and barcode scanner are the real game-changer. The labels cleanly show the price and with the barcode, I can ring up sales/trades and complete transactions in seconds instead of fumbling with a price lookup or other card scanner.
