What is a digital trading card binder?
A digital binder is an organised record of the cards you own. In Armatrade, a saved card can bring together front and back photos, the game, set, card number and condition details. It helps you check what you already have before you add another card to your collection.
Your physical cards stay with you. The binder stores their details and photos, so you can browse your collection on a phone or computer after signing in.
How to add your first card
Start with one card and confirm its details before saving. Good photos make the record more useful later.
- Create an Armatrade account or sign in to your existing account.
- Choose Add card and upload clear front and back photos of the card.
- Review the card identity and condition details. Automatic photo review is optional.
- Save the card to your binder, then use your wish list for cards you want to find next.
Included slots and free saves
Your account starts with 100 card slots and five free saved-card uploads. A saved card with front and back photos counts as one upload, rather than two. Binder capacity and upload allowance are separate: having empty slots does not make every upload free.
The planned membership is A$5 per month or A$50 per year after the free allowance. Membership and extra-slot checkout are not open during the current early-access phase.
Keep collecting with a clear record
Record the exact printing, finish and language when you can. Two cards with the same character or illustration can have different set numbers, variants or condition. Keeping these details with your photos makes future comparisons easier.
A binder entry is a record of your card, not a certificate of authenticity or a professional grade. Review suggested details and correct anything that does not match the card in front of you.
