Focused feature set
Storepass does fewer things — some shops prefer that. Less to learn, fewer moving parts.
vs Storepass
TCG Sync vs Storepass
Storepass is a focused card-shop platform. Storefront Pro is a broader, deeper platform — storefront, POS, buylist, deckbuilder, events, live auctions, mobile apps, and seven marketplace connectors. Here's the straight comparison.
Bottom line
Both work. Storefront Pro just covers more surface area.
Storepass handles the card-shop fundamentals well — inventory, POS, buylist basics. Storefront Pro adds the features that drive repeat visits and higher AOV: deckbuilder, live auctions, native mobile apps, and a wider set of marketplace connectors. For shops looking to grow their customer-facing offering, Storefront Pro's surface area is meaningfully bigger.

Where Storefront Pro wins
Where we genuinely out-cover Storepass
Structural differences, not marketing spin — every point is verifiable. Read it before you apply, so you know what you'd be buying into if we accept you.
Customer-facing depth
Deckbuilder, live auctions, live streaming, native mobile apps — none of these are native to Storepass. All included in Storefront Pro.
More marketplace connectors
Seven vs a narrower set. Cardtrader, Mana Pool, and CardSynced integrations matter for European and indie-marketplace coverage.
Bundled storefront theme
New redesigned Storefront Pro theme included on every signup.
Pricing
Price: flat £1,000 setup + 2% vs Storepass subscription

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- How long does Storepass migration take?
- 48 hours for typical catalogues. Inventory, customers, store credit, buylist history, and order history all import.
- Does Storepass's Shopify integration work similarly to Storefront Pro's?
- Both support running alongside Shopify. Storefront Pro additionally supports running standalone (no Shopify), which Storepass doesn't offer as cleanly.
- How much does TCG Sync cost compared?
- Two intakes, both by application. Storefront Pro: £1,000 one-time setup + 2% on sales — the standard plan for accepted applicants, every platform feature included. Or, for the smaller cohort of stores doing £1M+ in annual sales (and anyone migrating from Storepass), the limited-time Enterprise Annual: £19,999 per year, 0% sales fees, branded iOS & Android apps included. Enterprise also includes a dedicated support team, a direct line to the TCG Sync founders, and an invite-only VIP Discord server separate from the public community — none of which are part of standard Storefront Pro. No monthly subscriptions on either. No per-terminal licensing. Both plans plug into your existing website if you don't want to switch storefronts. Email admin@tcgsync.com to model 12-month total cost against your actual revenue.
- What does migration actually look like?
- Our team handles the migration end-to-end. Inventory with conditions, customer accounts, store credit balances, buylist history, and order history import during onboarding. Fully live within 48 hours of signup. Migration is included in the £1,000 setup — no surprise fees.
