How you become a seller
1 — Pick a plan
Start free, or subscribe monthly or annually to unlock selling. No listing fees, no final value fees, no commission.
2 — Verify your identity
Scan a government ID and complete a live biometric selfie check in the browser. Encrypted and reviewed by our trust team.
3 — Seller vetting
We review your ID match, selling history and first listings. Approval is usually within one business day.
4 — List and ship
Your listings go live in the vault grid. Ship direct to the buyer, or let them add Concierge and we handle it.
Buyer protection
RareDrop Concierge
We receive the card from the seller, verify the slab cert or raw condition against the listing, photograph it, and ship it to you insured and tracked. Buyers can add it to any member listing at checkout — sellers ship to us instead of the buyer, and we take it from there.
