Prices
Where card prices come from, and how often the app changes them.
Where prices come from
| Source | Cards | How often |
|---|---|---|
| TCGplayer market data | Every card in the catalogue | Nightly |
| PriceCharting | Sealed products | Nightly |
| JustTCG | Cards a paid store lists, or a paid member holds | Daily, live |
| Scryfall | Magic cards | Daily bulk |
The nightly TCGplayer sweep is what prices most cards. The other three fill gaps it does not cover, or refresh faster for cards a paid store is actually selling.
The app keeps one price for each card. All stores read the same price.
Change your currency
Every member sees the same market prices. You can choose the currency that the app shows them in.
- Open the account menu.
- Select Account Settings.
- Select a currency in Display Currency.
- Select Save Settings.
The app converts each price from US dollars. It checks the exchange rate one time each day. It keeps the same rate until the market rate moves more than 1% away from it. Small daily changes in the exchange rate do not change the prices that you see.
How the app calculates your price
The app starts with the market price. Then it applies your rules in this sequence:
- The rule for the game.
- The rule for the category.
- The minimum price.
- The rounding rule.
To change a rule, open Merchandising. The app applies the same rules to every listing in your store. It does not matter which person lists the card.
How often prices change
Your plan controls how often the app sends new prices to Shopify:
- A free plan sends new prices one time each week.
- A paid plan sends new prices one time each day.
The app sends the prices in the background. You do not have to do anything.
A small change in the exchange rate does not change your listing prices. The app keeps the same rate until the market rate moves more than 1% away from it.
Refresh prices immediately
- Open Store Prices.
- Select Refresh Store Prices.
If your plan does not permit a refresh now, the app tells you the date of the next refresh.
Note: On the Free, Starter and Storefront plans, a manual refresh uses your turn for that week or that day. On the Professional plan, you can refresh each card one time each day, and a refresh does not use a turn.
