Question 1

Is PokéItem free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, PokéItem has a full free tier: up to 1,000 cards and 10 sealed items in your collection, 20 scans per month and access to the complete catalogue with European market prices. For an unlimited experience, the Premium subscription comes in several plans (from €2.99/week, €5.99/month or €49.99/year) with a free trial of up to 7 days. A Lifetime option is also available at €159.99 as a one-off payment.

Question 2

What does the Premium subscription include?

Accepted Answer

Premium unlocks an unlimited card collection, unlimited sealed items, unlimited scans, whole-binder-page scanning (beta), messaging between collectors, the Collection Analysis page and the chart tracking your portfolio over time. Available as Weekly (€2.99/wk), Monthly (€5.99/mo), Annual (€49.99/yr, i.e. €4.17/mo) or Lifetime (€159.99, one-off payment). A second tier, Premium+, adds multi-TCG mode and raises binder-page scanning to 30 pages a month: €4.99/wk, €8.99/mo, €79.99/yr (i.e. €6.67/mo) or €249.99 for lifetime access. Free trials are the same as on Premium.

Question 3

How do I cancel the Premium subscription?

Accepted Answer

The subscription has no commitment and can be cancelled at any time from your profile, under "Manage my subscription". You keep Premium access until the end of the current period.

Question 4

Which Pokémon TCG products can I manage on PokéItem?

Accepted Answer

PokéItem covers two broad categories. Individual cards: every expansion from every block, from Wizards of the Coast (Base Set, 1999) through to the Mega Evolution series — over 100 expansions, in six card languages (French, English, Italian, German, Spanish and Japanese). Sealed items: boosters, displays, ETBs, collection boxes, UPCs, tins, bundles, tripacks, duopacks, theme decks and trainer kits. You can also record your graded cards.

Question 5

Can I manage card games other than the Pokémon TCG?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Pokémon TCG is included on every plan, the free one included. The Premium+ tier's multi-TCG mode adds the One Piece Card Game, with the same catalogue, scanner, binder and prices, and EN, FR and JP language tabs. You switch it on game by game in the settings. Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic: The Gathering, Disney Lorcana, Riftbound and Star Wars: Unlimited sit in the same picker with a “Coming soon” badge and will open as they go live.

Question 6

How does value tracking work?

Accepted Answer

Prices come from several cross-referenced sources rather than just one: the Cardmarket "Near Mint" value, the latest completed eBay sales, and the PokéItem index — our reference price computed across several sources and shown with its confidence level. Cards are also valued by condition, from Near Mint to Poor. Your collection's value is calculated automatically, and the evolution chart (Premium) shows how your portfolio moves over time. You can report an incorrect price in one tap from any card page.

Question 7

How do I add items to my Binder?

Accepted Answer

The fastest way is the scanner: photograph the card and it is identified along with its rarity and language. Premium members can scan a whole binder page at once (beta), 10 pages a month, and 30 with Premium+. Otherwise, for sealed products browse the catalogue by series from the Binder section and tap a product to add it with your purchase price and quantity; for cards, use the Collection section and add each copy you own (normal or reverse).

Question 8

Is PokéItem available on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. PokéItem is available as a native app on iOS and Android, and as a web version in the browser, with the same account and the same collection everywhere. The mobile app also works offline: your collection stays browsable with no network, and additions sync when the connection returns — handy at a convention or in a shop.

Question 9

Does PokéItem have a social network or community tab?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since version 1.2.0 (August 2026). Every collector gets a public profile with a showcase (their four best cards), their binder and their statistics. You can follow other collectors, see their new finds in a live activity feed and send them a "Poké" to say hello. You stay in control: a profile can be switched to private, and your collection's values can be hidden independently of everything else. Social features are restricted to ages 15 and up, messaging to 16 and up.

Question 10

Can you buy and sell cards on PokéItem?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the Marketplace, since version 1.2.0. You list your cards and sealed products for sale and buy other collectors'. Every listing shows where it sits against the market price, a "For me" filter surfaces only the cards you are missing or have wishlisted, and the community can vote on whether a listing looks legitimate. PokéItem takes no commission and does not handle payment: the Marketplace connects people, the transaction stays between collectors. Every listing photo goes through automated moderation before going live.

Question 11

Can you find shops and chat with other collectors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The shop directory lists physical card shops with their opening hours, an open/closed status computed live in the shop's own time zone, and directions in one tap. If you run a shop, you can claim your listing. For conversations, messaging (included with Premium) connects two collectors who follow each other: reactions, replies, read receipts and card mentions inside the thread. It is restricted to ages 16 and up, with built-in anti-scam guardrails, and every report is handled within 24 hours.

Question 12

Is my collection data secure?

Accepted Answer

Your data is stored securely and is never shared or sold to third parties. You can delete your account at any time from your settings.

Question 13

Is PokéItem an official Pokémon site?

Accepted Answer

No, PokéItem is an independent project and is not affiliated with Nintendo, GAME FREAK or The Pokémon Company. Pokémon names and artwork are the property of their respective owners.
