Each card includes a protective magnetic case, mimicking the presentation of professionally graded collectibles while offering complete customization options.
How durable are custom graded card slabs compared to traditional cards?

Can I create graded card slabs for any sport or player?
Yes, you can create custom graded card slabs featuring any sport, player, or team using your own photos. This includes professional athletes, amateur players, historical figures, or even non-sports subjects. As long as you own the rights to use the image, we can create your custom cards.
What photo quality do I need for good-looking graded card slabs?
For best results, upload high-resolution photos with good lighting and sharp focus. While our printing process optimizes images, starting with quality photos ensures your graded card slabs look professional and collectible. Phone photos from modern smartphones typically work well.
How do the magnetic cases protect my graded card slabs?
Each graded card slab comes with a crystal-clear magnetic case that seals completely around the card, protecting against dust, moisture, fingerprints, and edge damage. These cases are similar to those used by professional grading services and keep your cards in pristine condition for display or storage.
Can I order multiple graded card slabs with different designs?
Absolutely! Our multi-pack options let you create several different graded card slabs in one order, each with unique photos and customizations. This is perfect for creating team sets, family collections, or gifts featuring multiple players or moments.
What's the difference between single cards and MEGA poster options?
Single graded card slabs are traditional trading card size, perfect for collecting and display cases. MEGA posters are larger format versions of your design, ideal for wall display or as statement pieces. Both options include the same professional quality printing and come with appropriate protective materials.
