In-store card grading
Your cards,
graded.
Graded, sealed and authenticated on the spot at your local Carta shop. No mailing cards to distant labs and waiting months.
How it works
Three steps, one visit.
Bring your cards
Walk into a Carta partner shop, or send them to the shop you choose.
Graded on the spot
The shop grades, authenticates and seals your card into a Carta slab, in about an hour.
Registered & verifiable
Every slab is logged in the Carta registry with a serial and QR anyone can verify.
The slab
One brand. Your shop's name on it.
Every slab carries the Carta Grading seal for trust and authentication, and shows the shop that graded it.
- Carta-branded. One consistent standard collectors can trust.
- Your shop, named. The grading shop is on the label — local identity and accountability.
- Condition + authenticity. A clear condition grade and a genuine-card check.
- Registered. Serial and QR link to the Carta registry for instant verification.
