TCGCORE
Coming Soon

Everything your game store runs on.

TCGCORE is the unified POS, inventory, marketplace, ecommerce, buylist, loyalty, event, café, and operations platform built specifically for TCG and tabletop game stores.

Built by multi-location game-store operators—not adapted from generic retail software.

The problem

Game stores should not need ten disconnected systems.

Ordinary retail software does not understand:

  • Card sets, printings, conditions, finishes, and languages
  • Constantly changing market prices
  • Collection buying and trade credit
  • One-of-one serialized inventory
  • Marketplace quantity synchronization
  • Organized play and table reservations
  • Café, kitchen, and bar operations
  • Multi-location inventory
  • Store credit, loyalty, and customer trade history

TCGCORE is being designed around these workflows from the beginning.

Oversell prevention

Know where every card is—and where it is listed.

TCGCORE is designed to prevent internal overselling and minimize external marketplace race conditions through reservations, channel allocations, serialized inventory, safety stock, rapid updates, and continuous reconciliation.

Each channel receives a controlled allocation from one ledger instead of publishing the full on-hand quantity everywhere.

Controls in the design

  • Bidirectional marketplace synchronization
  • Channel-specific inventory allocations
  • One-of-one serialized card controls
  • Reservation and checkout protection
  • Connector health monitoring
  • Quantity discrepancy alerts
  • Automatic reconciliation
  • Configurable safety stock

Designed to prevent internal oversells and minimize external marketplace risk. Simultaneous sales across independent external marketplaces cannot be eliminated with absolute certainty.

Platform capabilities

One platform for the whole operation.

Every area below is being designed around real game-store workflows rather than adapted from generic retail software.

Purpose-Built POS

Fast touchscreen checkout, mixed buy-and-sell transactions, split tenders, store credit, returns, preorders, cash management, and customer-facing displays.

TCG Catalog and Pricing

A game-independent catalog with sets, printings, conditions, finishes, languages, upcoming releases, pricing history, source provenance, and store-controlled pricing rules.

Multi-Store Operations

Businesses, legal entities, stores, warehouses, convention inventory, transfers, shared customers, location permissions, and centralized reporting.

Buylists and Trade-In VIP

Collection intake, cash and credit offers, configurable buy percentages, hotlists, customer ID capture, trade history, and loyalty tiers for customers who consistently sell inventory to the store.

Custom Ecommerce

A fully customizable tenant-branded website with singles search, sealed products, events, loyalty, store credit, buylist submissions, shipping, and pickup—without requiring Shopify.

Serialized Singles and RFID

Unique serial numbers, QR price labels, Zebra RFID printing, chain of custody, zone-level location history, cycle counts, and RFID-assisted fulfillment verification.

Mobile Inventory and Loss Prevention

Zebra handheld price checks, receiving, cycle counts, transfers, picking, missing-item workflows, audit flags, shrinkage monitoring, and dedicated loss-prevention cases.

Café, Kiosk, and Events

Food and beverage POS, kitchen display workflows, Eflyn kiosk orders, alcohol age verification, customer singles kiosks, organized play, registrations, tables, and venue reservations.
