Hobby Game Store POS
POS for hobby game stores selling more than cards
A hobby game store isn't a coffee shop, a clothing boutique, or a supermarket. You sell singles that change price by the hour, sealed product that sells out on release day, minis you sell by the sprue, and board games with 300-piece accessory ranges. You run Friday Night Magic, pre-releases, league nights, and open play. Generic retail POS can't handle any of that. TCG Sync can.
- Singles, sealed, minis, board games, supplies & accessories on one POS
- Friday Night Magic, pre-release kits & league nights built in
- Customer accounts with credit, wishlists, and buylist history
- Online store + POS share one inventory — updates sync via webhooks, usually within seconds (allow up to 15 minutes)
- Marketplace sync to CardNexus, Cardmarket, eBay, and TCGplayer
- $1,000 USD setup + 2% of TCG singles and sealed sales — no per-terminal licensing
Why FLGS owners switch
Everything a hobby game store does — first-class supported
We didn't take a retail POS and bolt on plugins. TCG Sync was designed around how hobby game stores actually operate: singles, events, buylist, community.
Singles at the till
Condition-based scanning, market-priced search, and buylist trade-ins at the counter.
Sealed product release day
Pre-orders, allocations, per-customer limits, and allocation queues — essential for booster box drops.
Minis and accessories
Sell minis by the sprue, paint pots by the colour, and dice by the set. Variants built for hobby retail, not clothing.
In-store kiosks
Let customers browse your full inventory at a self-service display while they play a game.
Store credit for community
Issue credit for event prizes, trade-ins, league wins, or loyalty. Customers spend it online or at the counter.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Does this work for board game-only stores (no TCG)?
- Yes — but TCG Sync is strongest when you sell TCG alongside other hobby lines because the TCG features (buylist, deckbuilder, catalogues) are the hardest to replicate elsewhere. If you're pure board games, generic Shopify plus an events app may be enough.
- How does it compare to BinderPOS or Crystal Commerce?
- Compare them against your own workflows, invoices, and integration needs. TCG Sync includes the full storefront, deckbuilder, wishlists, saved carts, events, and live auctions out of the box; check which of those your current setup covers and which rely on extra subscriptions, plugins, or Shopify add-ons.
- Can I keep my existing Shopify store?
- Yes. TCG Sync connects to your Shopify store as a sales channel. Shopify is currently required as the source of truth; Shopify-independent operation is planned.
- What about card recognition and scanning?
- Camera-based card recognition is included. Point a phone at a card, identify set and condition, add to inventory or buylist in seconds.
