TCG Fake Card Checker
Real vs Fake Card Analyzer
Free · In‑App Purchases
Meet Holo Studio: explore multi-angle holo and texture references for supported Pokémon cards, then pinch, zoom, tilt, and compare fine details.
Grade Ready's TCG Authenticity Checker helps collectors compare a card photo against a known real reference before buying, selling, trading, or documenting a collection.
Start with the exact print, then inspect the parts of the card that matter: borders, type, symbols, finish, color, stock cues, set codes, rarity marks, and registration.
Key features:
- Find and select known real reference images from supported TCG catalogs.
- Capture a card with the camera or import a photo from your library.
- Compare the real reference and your card photo with a drag-to-reveal wipe view.
- Use focus lenses for borders, tiny type, symbols, finish, codes, and other review areas.
- Review photo confidence so that weak lighting, glare, crop, or focus problems do not get treated like authenticity evidence.
- Save review records with the reference, card photo, notes, scan status, and risk summary.
- Learn a repeatable collector workflow for exact-print identity, finish checks, type review, back/stock review, and evidence documentation.
Premium tools add Evidence Engine analysis, synced loupe views, ghost/light-table overlays, difference maps, blink comparison, tone and detail review, photo confidence, focus lenses, multi-reference review, risk summaries, and saved evidence reports.
This app is a collector decision-support tool. It does not certify authenticity, grade cards, appraise value, or guarantee buying, selling, trading, or investment outcomes. Always combine app review with physical inspection and trusted expert judgment before making high-value decisions.
