About TCGApi

TCG API is a REST API providing market pricing and catalog data for trading card games, covering more than 89 games available on TCGPlayer, including Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, and Lorcana. It returns JSON data such as card names, set information, rarity, market/low/foil prices, per-condition pricing, and price change tracking over 24-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows. The top seven games refresh daily while the rest update every three days, and the service reports coverage of over 68 games, 836,000+ cards, and 5,172+ sets with 99.9% uptime on Cloudflare's edge network. Official SDKs are available for npm and pip.

The API is aimed at developers building price trackers, collection managers, storefronts, and inventory or pricing tools for the trading card game market. It offers search, filtering, pagination, and bulk endpoints for fetching large volumes of prices at once, along with historical price data (starting from March 2025, weekly data points for cards priced at $1 or more) for trend analysis.

Pricing includes a free tier (100 requests/day, non-commercial use, no credit card required) and paid tiers: Hobby ($9.99/mo, 1,000 requests/day, 7-day price history), Starter ($19.99/mo, 2,500 requests/day, 30-day price history, set price dumps), Pro ($49.99/mo, 10,000 requests/day, full price history, per-condition pricing, bulk endpoints, commercial use license), and Business ($99.99/mo, 50,000 requests/day, same features as Pro at higher volume). Commercial use requires a Pro or Business plan. The API also supports pay-per-request access via USDC micropayments (x402 protocol) on Base or Solana, starting at $0.005 per call, intended for AI agents that need access without an account or subscription.
