Frequently asked questions
Q.Is the Scanner free?
Yes. The card Scanner is completely free for every logged-in mTCG.app user.
Q.Why do I need to install the app?
The Scanner works locally and uses your device's camera directly. Installing it as a PWA (on your home screen) gets around browser limits and gives you a steadier, smoother picture.
Q.Which cards can I scan?
We recognise cards from the sets available on mTCG.app (Pokémon, One Piece, Lorcana, Riftbound and Cyberpunk). We keep improving recognition and adding older and rarer sets.
Q.Where do the prices come from?
The market value is estimated from publicly available listings on many marketplaces, taking into account the card's language, its condition and how many listings there are.
