CardFlare
Now building · One Piece Card Game first

Find the card.
Make the trade.

CardFlare connects players at local TCG events so they can find nearby trades, complete their decks, and spend less time searching through binders.

How It Works

Three steps to a trade

No shipping, no negotiating with strangers online. Just the people already in the room with you.

  1. Step 1

    Send a Flare

    Post the card you are looking for.

  2. Step 2

    Get Matched

    CardFlare finds someone at the event who has it.

  3. Step 3

    Make the Trade

    Meet in person and complete the trade.

For Players

The room is full of the cards you need

You just cannot see them. CardFlare makes the binders around you searchable for the length of the event.

  • Find missing cards before the next round starts.
  • Stop flipping through every binder in the room.
  • Discover trades you would otherwise walk right past.
  • Request an exact printing, or any printing that works.
  • Spend more time playing and less time searching.

For Local Game Stores

Make your events the ones people travel for

CardFlare runs alongside your event, not instead of it. Trades stay in your store, between the people standing in it.

Live rooms for weekly events

Open an Event Room for locals, prereleases or a convention floor, then close it when the event ends.

Players join by QR code

Print one code for the counter. Players scan it and they are in — no account setup at the door.

A better reason to come back

Players who complete decks at your shop keep showing up at your shop.

Anonymous event engagement

See how much trading your events generate, without exposing individual players' data.

We are looking for a small number of stores to run the first CardFlare pilots and help shape how Event Rooms work.
