Cardex
Free on iOS & Android
Pokémon Card Price Checker App
Cardex is a free Pokémon card price checker app for iPhone, iPad and Android. Scan a card to identify it, then see its current raw and graded prices, recent eBay sales and price history, with market data from eBay, TCGplayer and Cardmarket.
What you see
Every Price a Collector Needs, on One Screen
Not one number from one site. The full picture, so you know what a card is actually selling for right now.
Raw price
The current market value of the ungraded card, so you know what a binder copy is worth today.
Graded prices
What PSA, CGC and Beckett graded copies sell for, side by side with the raw price, before you decide whether to grade.
Recent eBay sales
Real sold listings for the exact card, not asking prices. The fastest way to sanity-check any value.
Three marketplaces
eBay, TCGplayer (low, mid, market and high) and Cardmarket in EUR, compared on one screen.
Price history
See whether a card is climbing or cooling off before you buy, sell or hold.
Collection value
Every card you check can be added to your collection, and Cardex totals the value and tracks it over time.
How it works
Check a Pokémon Card's Price in 3 Steps
No typing card names into eBay. No guessing which of the twelve Charizards you have.
Scan the card
Open Cardex and point the camera at the card. It identifies the exact card, set, collector number, rarity and variant so the price you see is for the printing you actually own.
Read the prices
Raw and graded values, recent eBay sales, marketplace comparison and price history appear on the same screen. Search by name or set if you do not have the card in hand.
Decide, or keep scanning
Sell it, grade it, hold it or add it to your collection. With automatic scanning you can price a whole binder in one sitting and watch the total climb.
Why a price checker needs to identify the card first
Most "Pokémon card value" mistakes are identification mistakes. The same Pokémon and often the same artwork exist as a $2 reprint and a $200 original, as a regular and a reverse holo, as an unlimited and a 1st Edition print. A price checker that starts from a typed name shows you a list and leaves the hard part to you. Cardex starts from the card itself: the scanner pins down the exact printing, and only then looks up the price. That is why the numbers match what the card actually sells for.
Sold prices, not asking prices
Anyone can list a $3 card for $300. Cardex shows recent eBay sold listings alongside current marketplace prices, so you see what buyers really paid. For anything valuable, read the comparable sales before you set a price or accept an offer. Our guide to checking recent Pokémon card sales explains how to compare like with like.
Price a whole collection
Pricing one card is a search; pricing a binder is a project. Start automatic scanning and move through the stack without restarting the camera. Each card lands in your collection tracker already identified and priced, with a running total, binders, a watchlist and value history. It is the quickest way to find out which five cards in a shoebox are worth the most.
