Download FlipAI FreeHow the trading cards scan works
Take a photo of the item or scan its barcode if it has one. FlipAI reads the details that decide value in this category and prices the result against live eBay market listings. A scan takes about ten seconds.
- Game or sport, set, card name and number
- Rarity, parallel, insert and serial numbering
- Autographs, patches, foils and holo patterns
- Visible condition for a realistic raw estimate
Card values live or die on the exact printing. A base card, its foil version and a numbered parallel share the same artwork and completely different markets, which is why manual searching so often produces a price that is wildly wrong.
FlipAI resolves the printing from the image, prices it against live market listings, and shows a confidence score so you know whether the comps were tight. Graded comparisons are included so grading decisions are based on the premium, not a hunch.
What you keep after fees
A sold price is not profit. eBay takes around 13.25%, Poshmark 20%, Depop about 10%, and Mercari now charges sellers nothing. Run the numbers before you buy or list:

Frequently Asked Questions
Which trading cards can FlipAI scan?
Sports cards across NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, soccer and racing, plus Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh and other modern TCGs — anything with printed set and rarity information on the card.
Do I need to type the set or card number?
No. The scan reads the set, number, rarity and parallel from the photo, which is where most manual lookups go wrong.
How accurate is a trading card scanner?
Accuracy depends on the comps available. FlipAI shows a confidence score with every range, so a card with many recent identical sales reads tight and an obscure printing reads wide.
Can it price a lot or a whole collection?
Yes. Scan the group for a lot value, then scan the standouts individually and compare — batch mode makes this practical for large collections.
Is the trading card scanner free to try?
Yes — 10 lifetime scans free with no credit card required.
