Feature Suggestion: Pokémon TCG Live Physical Card Redemption System

Hello Pokémon Team,

I would like to suggest a feature for Pokémon TCG Live inspired by the Magic Online Redemption Program.

The idea would be to allow players to redeem their digitally owned card collections for physical versions of the same expansion.

For example, players who complete a specific expansion digitally could pay a redemption fee to receive the corresponding physical card set at home.

This system could offer several benefits:

  • Reduce the impact of scalpers and artificial product shortages.
  • Give collectors a reliable way to obtain complete expansions.
  • Provide an additional source of revenue for The Pokémon Company.
  • Allow Pokémon to better understand actual demand for each expansion.
  • Reduce dependence on traditional retail distribution and limited product availability.

Ideally, this could also include an option to order individual cards or selected portions of an expansion.

I believe this would be a fantastic addition to Pokémon TCG Live and could significantly improve the experience for collectors and players worldwide.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope this suggestion can reach the Pokémon TCG development and product teams.

Best regards.

    I don't really see the need for that... as long as you play the game regularly these days it's relatively easy to get 4 copies of all base set cards and even most of the master set too.
