How VGTD Works
Value Guarantee Overview
Every eligible card is protected with partner-backed value guarantees and verified pricing. No shipping, no market risk, no uncertainty.
Value Guaranteed Transactions (VGTD) apply only to cards pulled and secured within CardsIQ’s verified partner network.
Once a card is secured, its payout is protected against market declines during the guarantee window.
If verified market prices rise during the window, your payout adjusts upward to reflect the highest eligible value.
VGTD cards never require shipping by the collector.
Cards remain in partner custody throughout verification and settlement.
This eliminates transit risk and allows for immediate verification and payout eligibility.
VGTD payouts are subject to clearly disclosed platform and partner fees.
All fees are applied transparently with no hidden deductions after verification.
Membership tiers may reduce applicable fees or unlock additional benefits.
Cards are verified within the partner network to confirm authenticity, grade, and eligibility.
Once verification is completed, payouts are released immediately to your CardsIQ wallet.
If a card fails verification or eligibility requirements, it is resolved within the partner flow in accordance with CardsIQ policies.
