CRACK
PROOF

Almost every case made by each grading company is made of the same transparent material, which is vulnerable to cracking. So PKMNGRADE has made their cases from the scratch. Our cases are durable, and they are not cracking nor crumbling after being dropped almost from any height.

UV
PROOF

PKMNGRADE cases include a special UV proof glass, which is going to protect your cards not to fade away. None of the existing grading companies use such technology to protect their customers precious cards.

ANTIGLARE
COATINGS

Each of the cases made by other grading companies reflect the light very strongly, so you may see the light reflection, your face or a camera reflection which was used to take a photo of a certain card. Cases that are produced by PKMNGRADE have a built-in antireflective coating. Thanks to this technology, you can focus more on the card.

MAGNETIC
MAGIC

PKMNGRADE cases have a built-in magnetic system, thanks to which you can easily stack them. You may also use magnetic accessories, such as frames that can be hung on the wall or placed on a desk.

Pure Magnemite magic inside!

THE MOST ACCURATE GRADING COMPANY IN THE WORLD. WITH AI.

LABORATORY PRECISION

Each side of the card is photographed on a dark background, and the images are entered to a special program.

Unlike other grading companies, where each action is made by one human being, in PKMNGRADE many processes are automated, so the risk of an error in grading cards is reduced. Subsequently the card is being photographed from different angles. This kind of action enables a standardised surface rating.

The borders are also photographed so the system and afterwards our workers will be able to verify if a card has no signs of Whitening nor Silvering.

UNDERSTANDABLE EVALUATION

The rating of a card depends on 38 subgrades, which makes the process of grading cards more precise and clearer to everyone. By this process, PKMNGRADE has eliminated the problem that sometimes occurred in other grading companies, where grades were given incorrectly.

Firstly, our special AI program is being used to declare the 38 subgrades correctly, after we analyze precisely each photo of a card using a special macro photo lenses.

Finally, our employees, equipped with special facial masks and gloves, perform the final evaluation of the card in teams of two.

COMPATIBLE SIZE

Each grading company is very similar to each other in their way of making their cases - structure & material. 

In PKMNGRADE we made our cases completely different, but we made sure that the dimensions did not differ from these made by the competition, making the cases compatible with boxes and other storage accessories that are available on the market. 

Check out the info below how our system is advanced and easy to use.

SAFETY 2.0

These days even the most advanced security can be easily broken by anyone. Even a special system made of QR codes does not secure your graded cards anymore. 

PKMNGRADE has tried to keep you and your cards in our cases, that are safe from falsification:

●   Our cases are made of a special rough material that makes copying them impossibly difficult, 

●   Our labels are being printed on a special silk structure material, 

●   Our cases have got NFC built-in microchips, to research or track even faster your cards 

●   Our cases are resistant to temperature changes.

MICROCHIP

Each PKMNGRADE case has a special built-in microchip, which is used for additional card authorization. Due to this technology, you will not be limited to only checking your card grade by entering the certificate number into your browser, but simply put your phone with the NCF technology next to the case, and a pop-up will appear on your smartphone which will lead you to the website with your own Pokémon card. Those microchips work with a wide range of the latest smartphones or electronically devices with the NFC module and their service will last up to 50 years.

FRONT OF
THE CARD

The first line defines the name of the Pokémon. 

In the second line you will see the grade of the card. 

Finally in the last line you will find the card certificate number. 

Searching a card by its certificate number in other grading companies is extremely hard. So, in our case, all you need to do is, type in your browser: PKMNGRADE.COM/ followed by the certificate number.

BACK OF THE CARD

We also added a QR code, which is situated on the reverse side of our cases, which is an additional way of entering our website dedicated to a certain card. 

The first line will inform you about the language and the year the cards was issued. 

The second line will inform you which set, this card comes from. 

The third line will inform you from which edition the card comes from. 

The last line will give you additional informations.

ADDITIONAL CARD INFORMATION

PERSONALIZED WEBSITE

Whether you enter the certificate number into the browser or scan the QR code or even use the NFC technology, you will always end up on our website dedicated to your specific Pokémon card. 

On our website you will not only see the same information as on your graded card, but you will be able to check a detailed description of partial assessments in the E8C8C4S2 system (Edges - Corners - Centering - Surface). On our website you will also find more accurate photos of the cards made on the front and the back of your cards.

INNOVATIVE E8C8C4S2 SYSTEM

Unlike the competition, the grade of the card does not consist of one or four grades, but as many as 38! 

We check the surface of the card on the front and back, four edges (on the front and back of the card), four corners (on the front and back of the card), and the centering of the card (also on the front and back), which are examined in proportion to each other. Such details allow for an infallible final evaluation. 

Some of the photos from our 38 subgrades can be seen on a special website.

EVEN MORE SECURED

Counterfeiters are able to produce extremely similar copies of cases made by other well-known grading companies.  For this reason, PKMNGRADE has decided to launch a special service consisting of tracking the card’s owner. After grading the card, you will be able to check each card on a special website. At the very bottom of the page you will be able to see, the name of the owner for whom the card was graded at the first place. If anyone ever buys this card, after signing up a free account at PKMNGRADE, he will be able to ask the first owner of this card to confirm that the card's owner has changed.  This service is optional, but it can significantly reduce frauds. Even if the first owner and subsequent owners did not care about adding more entries, the first owner is always listed in the system - you can contact him and find out if he has ever sold his card. 

This service will be launched in the second quarter of 2022.

A SINGLE
AND CLEAR
CHARGE

PKMNGRADE does not charge you additionally for the value of the card. 

We find it really unfair, to pay for the grading as well as for the value of a card. While grading cards in our company, you only pay for the service you choose by your self - either 60 or 30 days.

NO
PRINTING

The application form was invented by us from scratch. 

All you need to do is fill in how many cards would you like to grade, choose the service variant - 60 or 30 days, fill in your personal data and pay for the service. After your payment has been processed, you will receive an order number consisting of 9 digits - just take a piece of paper, write these numbers down and put them into the package with all your cards. That's all! 

You don't have to print anything or fill out complicated forms.

FAIR RETURN SHIPMENT OF CARDS

PKMNGRADE does not charge any exorbitant fees for the return shipment. 

If you have chosen the faster variant of grading, the return shipment will be free of charge. On the other hand, if you chose the standard variant of 60 days, the system would automatically add to your cart the cost of the shipment to your order. 

You're always paying standard price tag for return shipment no matter how many cards you sent for grading.

A FREE
AND SUPERSAFE VAULT

For these clients, who really care about the safety of their precious cads, PKMNGRADE offer a free UNLIMITED VAULT service. 

Thanks to this option you can store safely all of your cards in our vault. 

At any time, you can have your card shipped back, then you only bear the cost of transport.
