Catalogue, track and sell your Pokémon cards. Entirely offline.
Tom's Card Manager is a free Pokémon TCG collection and inventory manager for Windows. The full English card catalogue is built in — you just mark which cards you hold, at what price, condition and variant — and you can add the cards it doesn't have, promos and misprints included, with your own photo of them. Track a separate personal collection with wishlist and trade lists, record your sales, and generate a self-contained store page you upload to your own website. No account, no cloud, no telemetry. Your data never leaves your PC.
What it does
Built for collectors and small sellers who want a proper desk tool for their cards — not a spreadsheet, and not a website that owns their data.
The whole catalogue, built in
Over 20,000 English Pokémon cards across 170+ sets ship with the app, so you never hand-type card names, numbers or sets. One click adds any new sets as they release.
Add the cards it doesn’t have
Promos, misprints, regional printings — anything the public data misses, you can create yourself. A name is all that’s required. Got a whole set to add? Import a CSV, TXT or JSON card list and it adds only the cards you don’t already have, showing you exactly what it would do before writing anything. Either way they behave like any other card: stock, prices, locations, exports and your store page all work on them normally.
Your own photos, in your own file
Give a card you added a scan or a phone photo. It’s straightened, resized and stored inside your database, so there is still one file to back up — and re-saving it strips the location data a phone hides inside a picture.
Keep the catalogue accurate
Card data gets corrected upstream — a misspelled name, a wrong rarity, a changed image link. Recheck re-reads the sets you choose and refreshes those details, without ever touching your stock, sales, locations or the cards you added.
Mark your stock in seconds
Pick a card, choose the variant and condition, set quantity, price and a storage location. Standard, Holo and Reverse Holo are each tracked separately, with prices per condition.
Generate your own store page
Produce a self-contained, searchable HTML store page of your in-stock cards and upload it to your own website. Static files only — no server, no database, no monthly fee. It names the files it is about to replace and asks first, so you can’t overwrite the wrong folder by accident.
Sales ledger & reports
Every sale is recorded, so your stock stays accurate and you keep a history. One-click HTML sales reports with totals, channels and period presets. Undo a sale or a whole batch.
Collection mode
Keep your personal collection separate from your sale stock — same cards, independent quantities. Move a card to your sale list in one click when you decide to part with it.
Wishlist, trades & set completion
Flag cards you want or are happy to trade, then produce clean HTML Wishlist, Trade-list and Set-completion reports — the last showing exactly how close each set is, secret rares included. Just want to tick off a set on your phone? Use the free online Set Tracker — no download needed.
eBay price checks
Check the going rate for the selected card with a one-click eBay search, tuned to your region and to live or completed listings — so you price with real numbers, not guesswork.
Private by design
Everything lives in one SQLite file on your machine. No accounts, no analytics, no telemetry, and nothing is ever uploaded. Card pictures download as you browse and are cached; everything else — Update, Recheck, self-hosting images — happens only when you click it.
Backups you control
One-click timestamped backups, plus verified automatic copies before anything risky — an upgrade, a delete, a recheck, a compact. Your whole collection is a single file you can copy anywhere, and Compact hands unused space inside it back to your drive.
How it works
Four steps from a fresh download to a live store page. Do as much or as little as you need.
Open
Unzip and run — no installer. The full card catalogue is already loaded, so you land straight on 20,000+ cards ready to mark.
Mark
Find a card, tick off what you own — variant, condition, quantity, price, location. Filters and search get you to any card in seconds, and if the catalogue is missing one, add it yourself.
Publish
Set your store name and details once, then Generate a self-contained store page and upload it to your website. Regenerate to update it.
Track
Record sales as they happen, run reports, and keep your personal collection, wishlist and trade lists up to date alongside your stock.
The technical bit
Built to the same rules as every other tool on this site: portable, offline-first, zero dependencies.
Platform
Windows 10 and 11, x64. Built with C++17 and the Win32 API. No MFC, no Qt, no frameworks.
Storage
SQLite compiled in. Your entire collection, stock, sales history and any card photos you add live in one portable card_manager.db file next to the EXE.
Network
WinHTTP. Card pictures download as you browse the grid and are cached; Update, Recheck and self-hosting images run only when you click them. Nothing is uploaded — no telemetry, no analytics, no accounts, no version check.
Card data
Catalogue sourced from the public PokemonTCG open data on GitHub. Keyless, and only fetched when you run Update or Recheck. Downloaded set files are validated before anything is written to your database.
Install
None. Unzip and run. Settings live in INI files next to the EXE. Delete the folder to uninstall.
Licence
Free for personal and commercial use. Source not distributed. No warranties. See the included LICENSE.txt.
