Is CatchBack legit?
Yes. CatchBack Cards is a US company backed by Y Combinator, Foundation Capital, Robinhood Ventures and Coinbase Ventures.

Are the cards real?
Yes. Each card on CatchBack is tied one to one to a physical, authenticated graded card stored in our climate-controlled, insured vault. The card you see in the reveal is the card you own, and you can request it shipped to you at any time from your vault.
- Free US shipping on requests worth $50 or more.
- Requests ship Monday to Friday by UPS or USPS and usually arrive in 1 to 5 business days.
- International shipping is available in supported countries.
How does the guaranteed buyback work?
| When you sell back | You receive | Paid to |
|---|---|---|
| Within 5 minutes of the pull | 90% of the card's value | Your balance, instantly |
| Anytime after, no expiration | 80% of the card's value | Your balance, instantly |
For the first 7 days after you get a card, its buyback value is locked at what it was worth when you got it, whether the market moves up or down. Values come from CardLadder's estimate for each graded card, checked against its average sale price over the past two weeks so one low sale can't sink a card's value.
Can you actually withdraw money?
Yes. Money from buybacks and marketplace sales withdraws to your bank account with no withdrawal fee, and bank withdrawals usually arrive within 1 to 3 business days. If you deposit in crypto, you can also cash out as USDC, usually within minutes.
Are the odds fair?
Every pack shows its odds and its possible hits before you buy, and pack openings use verifiable randomness you can check. And every card you pull comes with a guaranteed buyback, so your collection always has a floor.
