Frequently asked questions about OripaOS

OripaOS was built under the supervision of the operators of an oripa site in Japan. Every format, reveal and safeguard comes from their day-to-day experience, and done-for-you stores get hands-on help with setup and their first two launches.

You need cards to fill your packs. Start with your own collection or shop stock, buy locally, or buy wholesale from us: mostly Japanese cards, quoted every day, usually below market prices and shipped from Hong Kong.

Launch videos ($99 each) are made for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and the Playbook covers your first 30 days: launch offers, events and the formats that bring players back. You run your own marketing; we give you the material and the method.

Building a pack takes minutes with a proven format. Most of your time goes into buying cards and shipping orders, and you decide how many packs you run.

Yes, wholesale. Each round we put together a list, mostly Japanese cards: ungraded cards, graded slabs and sealed booster boxes, quoted every day. We don't sell cards one at a time. Contact us to order, and we'll take you through the list and answer any question before you buy. Our prices are usually below what you'll find on the market. We ship from Hong Kong, so order ahead and keep stock ready for your packs.

Yes. Pick a ready-made theme or have us design a custom one in your logo, colors and style. You can change it anytime.

Every pack comes with the standard reveals at no extra cost. Custom videos are an add-on: $99 per video. Each video covers one prize tier, comes in vertical 9:16 for your store and social media, and includes one round of changes.

No. We set up your store with you, one step at a time: brand, payments, markets and your first pack.

OripaOS launches with stores in the United States. Your store sells to players in the states we support, and you can exclude more. Other countries open after legal review. Join the waitlist to hear first.

You connect your own payment account. Players pay you directly. OripaOS bills its monthly fee to your card separately and never touches your players' payments.

It's 3.99% of your store's pack sales last month, with a $99 minimum and a $3,999 maximum. The minimum starts with your first full calendar month (UTC) after your payment account is created. Hosting, email and SMS aren't included: your store runs on its own accounts with those providers, and you pay them for what you use.

Yes, anytime. There's no contract. You can get a full refund of your setup fee until you connect your payment account; after that, it isn't refundable.

It depends on where you and your players are. Rules on selling packs with random prizes differ by state and country, and some places restrict them. OripaOS opens regions after legal review and can block others, but each store is responsible for its own compliance, so check with a local lawyer before you launch.
