Reseller API

Card data inside your product, on your domain

For teams that already have a front end: an agency with client sites, a point-of-sale app, a collection tool. You get the whole API on your domain with keys in your name, a limit per customer and usage per customer. What you charge for it is up to you.

$1,000
Setup, paid once
$249

What your customers call

The same API, a different name on the door

A customer of Brickhouse TCG, a fictional agency, looks up a card. The record and the prices are real and come from our catalogue. The domain, the key and the image host are the agency's.

Every endpoint TCGGraph has is on your domain the day it ships: cards, sets, sealed product, prices by market and finish, condition prices, graded prices, daily history, webhooks and GraphQL. A fix or a new set reaches your customers at the same moment it reaches ours.

What you get

The parts a reseller needs, and none it has already built

01

The API on your domain

api.yourbrand.com with a certificate we issue and renew. REST and GraphQL, every endpoint TCGGraph has, the day it ships.

02

Keys with your prefix

Create a customer, issue a key, set a monthly credit limit, revoke it. From your partner dashboard, or from your own sign-up flow through the partner API.

03

Usage per customer

Credits used per customer per day, so you can bill each one however your product already bills.

04

Your name in the details

Error bodies link to your docs and image URLs use your image domain, so nothing in a response points back to us.

05

An OpenAPI file in your name

The full specification with your domain as the server, ready for whatever docs tool or SDK generator you already use.

06

One bill, pooled

The monthly fee plus $0.70 per 1,000 credits across all of your customers together, drawn from a prepaid balance you top up.

Your name, not ours

Nothing in a response points back to us

The surfaces a Reseller API customer can reach. White-label adds the portal, docs, billing and email on top.

The numbers

Data as a line on your invoice

Whether you bill clients for a care plan, a seat or a subscription, data becomes a margin you keep rather than a cost you absorb.

Reseller API or white-label?
