How To

Connect CardTrader

Add a CardTrader API token and check product matches before publishing.

CardTrader uses an API token to give TCG STATS access to your seller account.

Find your token

  1. Sign in to CardTrader.
  2. Open your CardTrader account settings.
  3. Open the API section.
  4. Copy the API token.

Treat the token like a password. Do not send it in chat or store it in a shared spreadsheet.

Connect CardTrader

  1. Open Settings → Connections in TCG STATS.
  2. Find CardTrader.
  3. Select Connect.
  4. Paste the API token.
  5. Save the connection.

TCG STATS checks the token and shows the connected account.

Understand blueprint matches

CardTrader calls its catalog products blueprints. A card must be matched to the correct blueprint before it can be published.

Check:

  • game and set;
  • collector number;
  • language;
  • finish or variation;
  • condition.

If no blueprint is available, correct the product match before retrying the listing.

If the connection fails

  • Copy the token again without spaces.
  • Confirm that API access is enabled in CardTrader.
  • Generate a new token if the old one was revoked.
  • Make sure you are connecting the intended seller account.
