MasterSets Scanner for iPhone

The fastest way to get a stack of cards into your collection.

Hold a card in front of the camera. The app finds the exact card and printing, shows you what it matched, and adds it to a scan session. When you're done, one tap marks everything as owned on MasterSets.

1

Pick the game

Choose the TCG you're scanning so matches are instant and never cross games.

2

Scan the stack

Card after card — each one is matched and added to the session. Flip a match between Normal and Foil with a tap.

3

Add all to your collection

Finish the scan and every card is marked as owned in your MasterSets collection, with the right printing.

What's in it

Built for collectors, not for selling.

The scanner is a faster way to tick cards. It uses the same card database as the site — every set, every variant — so what you scan is what shows up in your checklist.

Exact printing, not just the card

A holo, a reverse, a foil and a normal are different rows in your collection. The scanner asks which one you're holding, so your Master set progress stays honest.

Pairs with your account by code

No password typed on the phone. Sign in on the site, open Devices, and enter the short code the app shows. Revoke a device any time from the same page.

Works for every game on MasterSets

Pick one game to narrow the match, or scan across all of them. New games appear in the app as they're added to the site.

Buy or sell price at a glance

Each match shows the current for-sale price or the last sold price, so you know what's in the stack. Hidden on kid accounts, like everywhere else on the site.

Sessions you can review

Scan a whole box, then check the list before you save. Remove a wrong match, switch a printing, then add everything at once.

Nothing leaves your collection

The app writes to your MasterSets collection and nothing else. No marketplace, no listings, no selling — that's not what this is for.

The preview above is the app's real interface running in your browser with sample cards.
