What Valdar Does
Everything you need to collect, price, and invest in sports cards — in one free app.
Instant Card Scanner
Point your camera at any sports card — baseball, football, basketball. Valdar identifies the exact card, set, year, and parallel in under 1 second. Works with raw cards and graded slabs from PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC.
Real-Time eBay Prices
See what your card actually sells for — not estimated values. Valdar pulls recent eBay sold listings and breaks down prices by grade: PSA 10 Gem Mint, PSA 9 Mint, BGS 9.5, and raw ungraded. Updated every 12 hours.
Collection Tracker
Build your digital collection. Scan cards to add them, or search manually. Valdar tracks total portfolio value over time so you know exactly what your cards are worth today vs. last month.
PSA Pop Report Lookup
Check grading population data for any card. See how many copies exist at each grade level — crucial for understanding scarcity and whether a card is truly rare or just appears rare.
Price Alerts
Set target prices for cards you want to buy. Valdar notifies you when eBay listings drop below your threshold — never overpay, never miss a deal on the cards you are hunting.
Grading ROI Calculator
Should you grade that card? Enter the raw value and Valdar calculates the expected ROI for PSA, BGS, and SGC based on current market data and grade distribution probabilities.

Can Valdar scan PSA graded cards?

How does Valdar compare to Beckett or CardLadder?
Unlike Beckett ($30/month) or CardLadder ($20/month), Valdar is completely free. Our prices come from actual eBay sold listings rather than estimated values, making them more accurate and up-to-date. Valdar also includes card scanning and collection tracking in one app.
Does Valdar work offline?
Card scanning requires an internet connection to identify the card and fetch prices. However, your collection data is stored locally and you can browse your collection offline.
