What is Hobby Pulse?
Hobby Pulse is a collection tracker with daily card values for sports cards, TCG and Disney. It keeps what you paid and what each card is worth, sends price alerts on your grails, tracks which case or box a card is in, and lets you list cards to eBay and Shopify. The web app is live today at app.hobbypulse.io.
Who is Hobby Pulse for?
Collectors and investors in sports cards, trading card games and Disney and other entertainment cards, raw or graded. That includes PC collectors, set collectors, breakers, dealers, family collections and anyone switching from a spreadsheet or another tool.
How much does Hobby Pulse cost?
Three plans: Basic is $9.99 per month, Plus is $14.99 per month and Premium is $24.99 per month (USD). Paying annually gives you two months free: $99.90, $149.90 or $249.90 per year. See the pricing page for every feature.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every plan starts with 7 days free, with everything unlocked. You can cancel any time.
What is the difference between Basic, Plus and Premium?
Basic covers 250 cards and 3 collections with card search, plus photo scanning (mobile app, now in beta), daily value updates, sales comps, locations, price alerts and CSV export. Plus raises the limits to 500 cards and 20 collections and adds cert lookup for graded slabs, price charts and trends, serials and multi-photo records, and a public profile. Premium has unlimited cards and collections and adds listing on eBay, Shopify, bulk import and bulk edit, your movers and priority support.
How do I add cards to my collection?
Snap a photo of a card in the Hobby Pulse mobile app (now in beta) and it finds the card for you; search the catalog, add by cert number, or bring a bulk CSV. Cert lookup is on Plus and Premium; bulk CSV and Card Dealer Pro import are on Premium.
How often do card values update, and where do they come from?
Daily. Hobby Pulse pulls recent sales per grade every morning for the tracked cards you own or watch, and shows the sale list behind every value so you can check the comps. If there are no reliable sales, the card is marked untracked rather than guessed.
Which cards and grading companies does Hobby Pulse support?
Sports cards (baseball, basketball, football, hockey, soccer and more), trading card games (Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Lorcana and more) and entertainment cards including Disney, Marvel and Star Wars. Raw or graded: it reads PSA, BGS, SGC and CGC labels from a photo or by cert lookup.
Can I sell cards through Hobby Pulse?
On Premium, yes: create eBay listings (fixed price or auction) under your own seller policies, and list cards as Shopify products, straight from the card page. Hobby Pulse never takes custody of the card.
Is there a mobile app?
The web app is live today at app.hobbypulse.io. The mobile app is now in beta, not yet downloadable.
Is my collection private, and can I export my data?
Your collection is private by default; nothing is public until you say so. You can export the whole collection to CSV any time, cost basis included, with no exit fee.
