What is CrystalCommerce?

CrystalCommerce is a long-running hosted webstore and point-of-sale platform for local game stores, with a 1M+ product catalog and sales channel integrations.

CrystalCommerce is built for brick-and-mortar game stores that want a hosted webstore, and it has been at that a long time. That comes at brick-and-mortar prices: $99/mo, a $599 setup fee, and 2.5% of every online sale. For a show vendor or online seller, that is a lot of overhead before the first card sells.

From slab to sellable in seconds

Point the scanner at a graded slab and Vendor Hub creates a priced inventory item with live market comps attached: current value, your cost basis, and suggested price. No typing card names at a show table.

Deals that price themselves

Run buy and trade deals with instant comps, configurable buy and trade percentages you can edit mid-deal, and a full deal review before you commit. Every deal lands in per-show P&L automatically.

One inventory, every channel

Publish to eBay, Shopify and TCGPlayer from a single inventory. When something sells anywhere, Vendor Hub syncs everywhere else, and the price-drift queue plus NIIMBOT label printing keep the table matching the market.

When CrystalCommerce might be the better fit

If you run an established local game store and need a hosted webstore with in-store POS and a big multi-game catalog today, CrystalCommerce is purpose-built for that retail footprint.
