Vault Your Cards

Get started for free on Courtyard.io. Currently US only.

Courtyard.io provides a service that enables anyone to vault and digitize their graded cards. Users can ship their cards to our vault to store and insure for free and have them added directly to their digital wallet. The cards can be instantly traded worldwide and are redeemable 24/7 for the identical physical cards. Currently we only accept graded cards shipped from within the US, though we plan to expand this more broadly.

How does it work?

To get started, head to Courtyard.io and click the 'Submit my cards' button

1. Share some details about your cards, download a prepaid shipping label, and drop off at your local USPS. Or ship directly to the vault from another marketplace (more info here).

2. After your package arrives at Brink’s, your card is authenticated and processed.

3. We securely store your card and add it directly to your digital wallet.

That's it! You can then carry your collection wherever you go, instantly choose when to list for sale, transfer directly to a friend – your cards, your terms.

How do I get revenue share from my cards?

When you ship a card to Courtyard, your wallet will be listed as the “originator” of that card. After the first sale of your asset from your wallet, the originator will receive 1% revenue share from each subsequent sale of the card every time it is sold. The revenue stream ends when the card is redeemed from our vault.

For example: If the originator sells their 1st Edition Charizard to another collector, the first transaction will be treated as any regular sale. After that first sale, if the person who purchased the card from the originator decides to sell it, the originator will receive 1% from that sale. Until the card is redeemed from the vault, the card originator will receive 1% on every sale of the card they originally vaulted.

Note that this does not apply to cards purchased through our drops.

Are these cards redeemable?

All cards stored at the Courtyard vault are redeemable worldwide at anytime.

For cards you own, you'll see a redeem button next to them when viewing them on Courtyard.io. You can also access the redemption request forms here.

Where is my card stored?

Cards are stored at the Courtyard vault thel United States. Cards are stored under fine art-grade security, and are monitored 24/7. See more info about our vault here.

Is the product insured?

Yes, we insure your cards for free while in the vault.

Who pays for shipping?

We cover the cost of shipping to have your cards delivered to our vault.

Upon redemption, shipping costs are charged to the redeemer based on their location and distance from our vault. See more about redemption costs and shipping charges on our redemption page here.

How quickly is the card minted after I send it in?

The turnaround time depends on how long your asset takes to get to our vault. From the time you ship your asset to Courtyard, it will generally take 1 to 2 weeks for us to authenticate the card, create the 3D rendering and mint it to your wallet.
