Adding cards
Printings, finishes, conditions, languages, quantities and Quick Add.
Every copy is specific
When you add a card you add a specific printing: the exact set and collector number, with its own art and its own price. Each copy also carries:
- Finish — normal, foil or etched.
- Condition — Near Mint (NM), Lightly Played (LP), Moderately Played (MP), Heavily Played (HP) or Damaged (DMG).
- Language — any language the printing exists in. See Card languages.
Quantities are tracked per combination, so "3 NM English normals and 1 LP Japanese foil" is exactly what your binder says.
Free plan
The free inventory holds up to 3,000 distinct printings. Finishes don't multiply: a normal and a foil of the same printing count as one.
In the app
- From Search — find the card, typing its name in any language, pick the printing, set finish, condition, language and quantity, and choose the destination.
- From inside a binder or list — + → Search opens the add screen already aimed at it. Tapping a printing's finish and price chip adds the copy instantly, and each chip shows how many of that finish you already own as ×N. Tapping the card image opens the detail page instead. An Owned toggle restricts the results to printings you already own, and offers only the finishes you own. Language is not picked here: the copy's language follows the printing you tap. The destination is remembered between adds.
- From the scanner — scans identify the exact printing. See Scanning.
- Quick Add — one tap into a preset binder, list or deck. See below.
- From an import — files, pasted text or URLs. See Importing.
- To the Tray when you know you want the card but not yet where it goes.
One condition for the whole session
The add screen's toolbar carries a Condition pill next to Sort, Filter and Owned. The condition you pick, NM by default, applies to every card you add from that screen. The picker spells out the codes: NM Near Mint · LP Lightly Played · MP Moderately Played · HP Heavily Played · DMG Damaged.
On the web
Two surfaces add cards.
Add Card is the owner's rapid-add drawer, offered on your binders, lists and decks. It slides in beside what you are filling, searches the whole catalog, and lists results as tiles with one tap-to-add chip per finish: tap a chip and one copy of that printing and finish lands in the destination, with a toast and an ×N bump on the chip. The controls follow the destination: a collection grades what it takes in with a Condition chip, a deck files it with a Board chip (Mainboard, Sideboard, Considering). An Owned mode and name suggestions work as they do in search.
Any card's Add button — on its page, in its drawer or from a search result — opens a choice of destination with finish and its owned ×N count, condition and quantity, and remembers the destination between adds.
Neither offers a language picker (the copy follows the printing you are looking at) or Change print: switch printings on the card page first, then add.
Quick Add
Quick Add wires one binder, list or deck to a single tap. It is app-only.
On any card's page, open the + button. Quick Add sits next to Add to, showing the name of the current target. Tapping it drops one copy into that target: Near Mint, the printing's default finish, no picker and no confirmation. Deck copies land in the mainboard. For any other finish, condition, language or quantity, use the full Add to flow beside it.
Set or change the target two ways:
- Press and hold the Quick Add button. The destination picker opens with the current target highlighted. Holding only reconfigures; nothing is added until the next regular tap. Your first tap, before any target exists, opens the same picker.
- From the collection. Every binder and list's ⋯ menu has a Quick Add target row, marked with a ⚡. On the current target, the same row clears it.
The target is a per-device preference, so a phone can feed the trade binder while a tablet feeds the collection. If the target is deleted, the next tap asks you to pick a new one.
Once a copy is in, everything about it stays editable. See Editing cards.
