Built for collectors.

CardFinder Live makes more of the collecting world discoverable—helping collectors find more cards, make more connections, and get more out of every card show, card shop, and trade night.

Find Cards

Search cards shared by collectors nearby, in your state, or nationwide.

Find Shows

Explore card shows near you or across the country, save events, plan a trip — and see which cards will be there before you go.

Find Card Shops

Discover local card shops and explore their details.

Go Live

At a show, go live and everyone there can find your cards.

Connect with Collectors

Message collectors in the app, agree on a public spot, and make the deal in person.

Build Your Collection

Manage your cards, keep a Watchlist, and save searches for cards you're chasing.

Participating collectors can share cards they expect to bring before a show and eligible inventory when Live. Availability can change—confirm the card and meetup details directly. CardFinder Live does not process per-card checkout, shipping, or payment protection.

Common questions.

Is CardFinder Live free?

Yes. Downloading the app and using it is free.

How do deals work?

Find a card, message the collector in the app, agree on a public place, and meet in person to buy, sell, or trade. There's no buying inside the app — the deal happens face to face, like it should.

Do you take a cut?

No. No checkout, no fees, no payments through the app. The app just connects collectors; the deal is between you two.

Is my location tracked?

No. At a show, Go Live uses a quick check to confirm you're there — that's it. Nobody's exact location is ever shown to anyone.

Why I Built CardFinder Live

The idea for CardFinder Live started at the 2025 National. I found a few cards I was looking for, missed a few others, and started wondering: why isn't there an app that makes the cards at a show searchable? That simple idea became the starting point for CardFinder Live.
