The short answer
Pick Collectr if you mainly want to track the value of a large trading card game collection, sealed product included. Pick Midpoint if you want to know whether a card is worth grading: it measures centering, estimates the grade and shows the raw and graded prices in one scan, and it covers sports cards, which Collectr does not yet.
Choose Collectr if
- You collect many different trading card games, including smaller ones, and sealed product
- You want a trade analyzer and a large social community around your collection
- You do not collect sports cards
Choose Midpoint if
- You are deciding which cards to send to PSA, BGS, CGC or TAG
- You want centering measured from a photo, not guessed
- You collect sports cards as well as TCGs
- You want graded prices and price history without a subscription

Questions
Does Collectr measure card centering?
Collectr’s feature pages, store listings and help center do not describe a centering tool or a grade estimate; condition is chosen by the user. Midpoint measures centering from a photo and estimates PSA, BGS, CGC and TAG grades.
Is Midpoint free?
Every price on Midpoint is free, raw and graded, with price history. Centering, AI grading and photo lookup come with 2 free uses; a subscription ($9.99/week, $49.99 for 6 months or $79.99/year) makes them unlimited.
Does Collectr support sports cards?
Not yet: Collectr’s PRO page lists sports cards as coming soon. Midpoint covers sports cards alongside Pokémon, Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Lorcana and more.
