What is the Card Slinger?
This tool is designed to assist in scanning a large number of MTG, Pokemon or other TCG cards at once using a card scanning app of your choice on your phone.
The card slinger fits both sleeved and un-sleeved cards, and accommodates standard sized MTG, Pokemon cards and more. Apps for scanning that work with this device are ManaBox for mtg, Delver lens for mtg and pokemon, Dex for pokemon and many more!
The Card Slinger funnels cards as you toss them into the scanning zone, centering the cards so that the scanning app can do its job quickly and efficiently, allowing you to scan card after card faster than any other manual method. This is a significant improvement over moving cards in and out of the frame one at a time by hand, and you can scan over 180 cards before needing to empty the drawer, the sleeved drawer holds about 80 cards single sleeved. The card slinger is strong, fits cards precisely, and makes short work of large quantities of cards in need of scanning.
The card slinger is the first of its kind device, don't accept imitations!
The Card Slinger comes in 2 versions, Card slinger Lite, and the Card Slinger, for sleeved and un-sleeved cards
The Card Slinger model fits sleeved cards, and just pop in the drawer of choice and scan to your hearts content!
Don't need to scan sleeved cards? Then the Card Slinger Lite model is just for you.
** Scanning in sleeved cards successfully is dependent on lighting conditions, angle, sleeve type, and application, some patience and experimentation is required **
** as these photos are of the preproduction unit, the final item shipped may have a slightly different surface finish and appearance **
Q/A

MTG Scanning
Manabox! This is an android, and iOS native app, it has settings to auto add cards that are scanned, and make sounds, tally costs, etc. It’s awesome.
MTG & Pokemon Scanning
Delver lens for MTG and Pokemon also works great with many camera control options that are not present in ManaBox. The apps are called Delver MTG and Delver Poke respectively.
Pokemon Scanning
Dex Scans Pokemon cards of all sets and types! Awesome UI, fun to use.
Yugioh Scanning
The best we have found for Yugioh is the TCG player app, but it does not work quite as well with Pokemon or MTG cards. TBH, its not that great, but hopefully improving in the future.

Let customers speak for us
from 148 reviewsGot it as a little surprise gift for my boyfriend who has just gotten in to MTG and has a ton of bulk laying around. It’s amazing works wonders. He is even thinking about getting it as a gift for his friends!
I love it its not perfect with scanning sleeved cards unless you have the perfect lighting without glare but it worked fantastic with sleeveless nailed the card every time.
The cards slinger is far superior than a similar device I tried. The cards slide in effortlessly. The open design lets light in so the camera can actually read cards. It's great!
Works great, best option for the cost
Card Slinger is a great way to scan all your cards in and get organized! It's simple to use and seems to be of great quality and build. I've been using it for a couple weeks and love it so far!
This shirt fit amazing and is made with great material!
Solid product. Works great! Thank you!
An easy an good alternative to sort and scan collections,easy to use and easy to store after finishing the process.
Does a great job lining up the shot and making for more efficient scanning. Foils and sleeves are still tricky, but I find that with this product, I can way faster and more accurately than just on a blank sheet. Happy I purchased it.
As of this review I have scanned in a bit over 200 cards. After I open a pack I tend to put the cards back in until I sort them into my physical library. That was the most time consuming part; scanning was very swift.
I love the way you can just drop the cards into the drawer without the worry of them flipping or going in too hard. I use the ManaBox app and it reads without issue.
I purchased the set that came with the drawer for sleeved cards. This is a lifesaver. Before I would have to take the card out, try and get it lined up right with the software I was using, then re-sleeve... it was a real time sink. If you have built decks that you use often, it is worth the extra cost for the sleeved drawer.
I do have some trouble getting the drawer to reseat smoothly. I think this is a 'newness' thing, and not a design flaw at all. It could also be the way I set myself up.
I love the Card Slinger, and I have recommended it to a few people so far. Hopefully they do the smart thing and get one!
It's durable, it holds the phone great, makes it super easy to read the cards. The one I got doesn't quite fit the sleeves, the sleeves were too big and didn't fit into the slot. The surfaces are pretty smooth, I doubt a card would get damaged from it.
This thing is perfect. I'm going to start scanning my entire collection.
