How a card shop makes money selling packs online
How you make money
You set the margin on every pack before it goes live.
You set the price and the prizes for each pack. OripaOS shows what you keep before you publish, so you always know your numbers.
- Stock cardsYour collection, shop stock or cards bought wholesale from us.
- Build a packPick a format, set the price and the prizes.
- Players open itEvery pull is paid for before it's opened.
- Ship every pullEvery card goes to the player who pulled it, unless you turn on sell-back.
Pulled cards wait in the player's vault until they ask you to ship.
You set the price.
Price per pack, number of packs and prizes. You see your margin before you publish.
Your margin starts when you buy.
Cards from your buylist, trade-ins and collections often cost less than market value. Pulls ship by default, and each player's cards go out together in one package.
