TCG Sync vs. Storepass

TCG Sync and Storepass both scale into enterprise territory, but they get there by solving different problems. TCG Sync's pitch is breadth — one platform pushing inventory across a long list of marketplaces. Storepass's pitch is depth on a narrower set of channels, with safety tooling built for stores where a bad price change is expensive.

We don't compete directly with either — Hoard doesn't sync to non-TCGplayer marketplaces and doesn't run a full POS. That makes this an easier comparison to write without a thumb on the scale.

Where each one wins

Storepass's reference list is its own public claim, not something we've independently verified beyond what they publish — but a prospective large-store customer can go check whether those names are still current customers, which a vague claim doesn't offer. And for a large store where one bad automated price change can be an expensive mistake, the price-approval gate is a meaningful piece of tooling TCG Sync's feature set, as described to us, doesn't specifically call out. Storepass's pricing scales from $99/mo plus 2% at the Scaling tier up to $4,999/mo at Enterprise, which is a wider top-end range than TCG Sync publishes for its non-Enterprise tiers.

The shared limitation

Both platforms ask for the same thing: full adoption. TCG Sync wants to be the hub for every channel you sell on. Storepass wants to be the platform your whole operation runs through. Neither is a feature you bolt onto an existing setup — picking either one is a platform decision, not a tool decision, and that's true whether you're drawn in by TCG Sync's channel breadth or Storepass's safety tooling and references.

That's the gap Hoard sits in, deliberately narrower: it doesn't sync to Cardmarket, eBay, Shopify, Amazon, Whatnot, or any channel besides TCGplayer, and it isn't a POS. What it does do is run automated TCGplayer repricing on a schedule, with price floors and ceilings and watch-only preview before anything goes live, on top of the TCGplayer store you already have — no migration, on a flat monthly fee. If your operation is single-marketplace on TCGplayer and the job you actually need done is pricing, not channel expansion or a full platform swap, that's the narrower tool for it.

Common questions

How many marketplaces does TCG Sync connect to?

Does Storepass have a safety feature TCG Sync doesn't?

Storepass has a price-approval gate that flags suspicious price changes before they go live. TCG Sync's feature set, as described to us, doesn't specifically call out an equivalent safety gate.

Can I use Hoard instead of TCG Sync or Storepass?

Only if TCGplayer is your one marketplace and pricing is the actual problem. Hoard doesn't sync to any other channel and isn't a POS — it runs scheduled TCGplayer repricing with price floors and ceilings and watch-only preview, on top of the TCGplayer store you already have.
