TCGplayer Overview and Setup Instructions

How to set up a TCGPlayer sync account, as well as an overview of the TCGPlayer integration

Written by Buddy Bot

CrystalCommerce offers continuous sync with TCGPlayer.com . The integration will import and receive your TCGplayer orders as they are placed and deduct any associated quantities from your inventory. The integration will also automatically push an update to TCGplayer when any change to price or quantity occurs, or when an update to a TCGplayer order occurs from within CrystalCommerce.

The account TCGPlayer will setup for you is called a Sync account.

Please note:

  • TCGplayer does not allow seller ratings to be ported over to new Sync Seller accounts. All Sync Seller accounts will begin with no seller ratings.

  • Only businesses located in the United States may sell on the TCGPlayer platform.

The Direct Sellers account comes with several benefits as detailed in this article.

Sync Sellers fall under the same fee structure as Direct Sellers.

Here are the associated TCGplayer Sync Seller fees under the Direct Seller category as of August 2020 :

After submitting this form, TCGPlayer will be in direct contact with you via email to provide you their Terms of Services. Make sure to provide the best possible contact information! For example, in Gmail you would check the Promotions, Updates, Spam, and All Mail folders for possible emails if you do not see it in your inbox. Check your rules and filters to make sure you can receive emails from TCGPlayer. Make sure that you check all possible destination folders for their email as well. 

If you already have a TCGplayer account, please provide a different contact email address when setting up your CrystalCommerce Sync Account. This separate email helps TCGplayer to distinguish between your existing account and your new CrystalCommerce Sync Account. The Paypal Email Address can be identical to the current TCGPlayer account. 

One of the benefits of a TCGPlayer Sync Account is that you can have unlimited listings right away without having to work through any seller levels.
