BOSTON - eTradeWire -- KARD, a social network and marketplace for physical sports and trading cards, is live on web, Android and iPhone, and the presale of its KARD utility token opens Nov. 20 and runs through Dec. 4, 2026 at kardtoken.com. Every card purchase on KARD is paid in U.S. dollars through Stripe.

KARD gives collectors one app for everything they do with a card. Point a phone camera at a card and, in seconds, KARD matches it to the exact card in its catalog: the player or character, the set and the edition. When two versions look alike, such as a base card and a numbered parallel, or a Pokémon card with or without a 1st Edition stamp, KARD asks a quick question instead of guessing. From there the card goes into a collection, onto a showcase, or onto the marketplace to sell or trade.

The presale opens with the product already in collectors' hands. The scanner, marketplace, trades, community feed and wallet described in this release are running, so the KARD token is tied to things people can already do in the app.

The scanner uses a live camera view with a card-shaped guide. It captures automatically when the card is steady and sharp, and it tells the collector to tilt the card when there is glare. KARD checks every match against official card catalogs and reference images, and when it is not sure it shows the closest candidates, asks a variant question, or lets the collector search by hand. Collectors can scan the back of a sports card, scan a whole pile in batch mode, and keep scanning with no signal, because captures upload once the phone is back online. KARD also reads graded slab labels and verifies PSA certificate numbers. It covers MLB, NBA, NFL, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering and One Piece cards, raw and graded. KARD is for physical cards only, with no digital cards, NFTs or blind packs.
