Tiers and the marketplace
Credits turn into cards on the marketplace. Tiers are the structure; the marketplace is the choice.
Tiers
Seven price bands: $5, $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000. They exist to make credits legible. When your balance crosses a tier you can redeem anything in that band. Your profile shows progress toward the next tier and, at the current rate, roughly how long it will take.
You do not have to redeem at the first tier you reach. Credits carry forward, so five $50 cards and one $250 card are both available to a holder with $250 of credits. The choice is yours.
The marketplace
The marketplace on the site is a live mirror of Collector Crypt's public listings, filtered to Pokémon. Every card shown is a real graded slab sitting in Collector Crypt's vault, listed for sale by its owner. POMY refreshes the mirror every few minutes; prices are shown in credits with the dollar value beneath.
Each tier has a curated pick pinned at the top of its results (these are the seven slabs on the landing page shelf), followed by every live listing in that band. Filters: tier, set, grade, grading company, price, and search by name.
What happens when you redeem
- You choose a card and confirm. The site re-checks the listing is still live and the price is within 2% of what you saw. If either has changed, it shows you the new state and asks again.
- Your credits are debited and held pending.
- The vault buys the exact listing on Collector Crypt and transfers the token to your wallet. This usually completes within a minute; the transaction appears in your activity.
- If the purchase fails for any reason (most often the card sold to someone else in the same moment), your credits are returned in full and the site tells you plainly.
Limits
- Redemptions are credits only. You cannot top up with cash or crypto. This keeps credits a promotional redemption rather than a sale; see Legal.
- Single redemptions above half the vault's current Solana float queue until the float is topped up. Your credits are held, the card is reserved where possible, and your profile shows "processing".
- Credits map to dollars 1:1 at the listed price. POMY reserves the right to introduce a small spread to cover network fees and failed purchases; any spread will be shown before you confirm.
Card images and data
Listing images, names, grades and cert numbers are Collector Crypt's data, displayed with permission. POMY does not grade, authenticate or hold cards itself.
