How to track your card collection

Collections are for knowing what you own — a binder, a box, or your progress through a whole set.

Two kinds of collection

Both support labels, your own tags for filtering the Collections page.

Marking what you own

Mark a card HAVE when you own it, or WANT when you're looking for it. You can do it from any collection, from the card catalogue, or from the Explore page. It's one status per card across the whole site, so marking a card once updates it everywhere.

Bulk updates

Inside a collection, tap Select, then tap cards or drag across a range to pick a whole block. Set them all to HAVE or WANT, or clear them, in one go — the quickest way to log a freshly opened booster box.

What it's worth

Tap the value chip in a collection for an itemised breakdown of the cards you own, with a total. Prices come from TCGplayer and Cardmarket data; they're estimates, not guaranteed values.

Duplicating

Any collection can be duplicated from its options menu — cards, quantities and statuses included. Useful for branching a binder or using one as a template.

Using it with decks

Your collection feeds into deck building: the Quickstart builder can build only from cards you own, and the deck editor's My Cards panel shows what you have and what you're missing.
