TCGplayer API

TCGplayer market prices, sold history, listings and sellers as JSON, with no API key application.

The API.SH TCGplayer API turns public TCGplayer pages into structured JSON. Search cards and sealed products across Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Lorcana and sports cards with market, median and lowest prices, then pull a product's SKUs, latest sales, daily sold-price history and every current listing with seller details. Game, set and seller routes cover the rest of the marketplace.

API.SH vs the official TCGplayer API

TCGplayer has an official API, but search results and its own docs say it is no longer granting new API access, with existing access limited to partners and eligible sellers, and OAuth-style keys. API.SH needs no key from TCGplayer and returns public price, sales and listing data.

Skip building your own TCGplayer scraper or relying on cached third-party price files: API.SH gives you one key and a fixed price per call, with blocks and retries handled for you.
