Capital for the collectibles industry
More buying power. More product. More opportunity.
Card Partners provides purchasing capital to streamers, breakers, dealers, card shops, wholesalers, distributors, and other professionals in the collectibles industry. If you have access to desirable product and a proven way to sell it, we can help provide the capital to buy more of it.
In the collectibles business, some of the best opportunities move fast.
You may have access to a great allocation, a large collection, a discounted case purchase, or inventory you know you can sell — but your capital is already tied up in other product.
That's where Card Partners comes in.
We provide qualified businesses and collectible professionals with additional purchasing power so they can take advantage of opportunities without having to fund every purchase themselves.
More capital means more inventory.
More inventory means more opportunities to make money.
We work with experienced operators across the collectibles industry — anyone with legitimate access to product and an established way to sell it.
Your ability to stream shouldn't be limited by how much inventory you can afford to purchase.
Card Partners can provide the capital to purchase cases, boxes, and other sealed product so you can keep breaking, keep selling, and continue growing your business.
We fund the product. You focus on selling it.
Great inventory doesn't always show up when you have cash sitting around.
Whether it's a collection walking into your store, an allocation from a supplier, a large card purchase, or an opportunity at a show, we can give qualified dealers additional purchasing power to make the deal.
Don't pass on good inventory because your capital is tied up somewhere else.
More purchasing power can mean larger orders, better opportunities, and more inventory to offer your customers.
Card Partners works with qualified wholesalers and distributors who need additional capital to purchase and move collectible inventory.
Not everyone in the collectibles business fits neatly into one category.
You might be a middleman with access to product. You might source inventory directly from dealers. You might sell online, at shows, through social media, or to other businesses.
We're less concerned with what you call yourself and more interested in three things:
If the answer is yes, we want to talk.
See if you qualifyA simple cycle built around the way inventory actually moves through the collectibles industry.
Identify the product or inventory you want to purchase through a supplier, distributor, dealer, wholesaler, manufacturer, or other approved source.
Once approved, Card Partners provides purchasing power based on your business, experience, sales volume, and funding needs.
Stream it. Break it. Retail it. Wholesale it. Flip it.
You keep operating your business while using Card Partners' capital to increase the amount of inventory you can purchase and sell.
Repay the amount funded plus the agreed-upon fee according to the terms of your transaction or funding program.
Our goal isn't to fund one transaction — we want to become your long-term capital partner.
As your business grows and you establish a track record with Card Partners, your purchasing capacity can grow with you.
Most funding falls into one of two programs: inventory purchasing for sealed product, and capital for individual raw and graded card opportunities.
Whether you need funding for cases and boxes, a collection walking through the door, or a single card with real resale upside, we help bridge the gap between seeing the opportunity and having the capital to act on it.
For established streamers and breakers, Card Partners helps fund sealed cases, boxes, and other approved inventory so you can keep your breaks moving without tying up all of your own cash.
Once approved, streamers can access a dedicated purchasing process and approved credit line for eligible vendors and products. You focus on buying, breaking, and growing your audience — we help back the product.
Card Partners also funds individual card opportunities for qualified buyers, dealers, and collectors.
A graded card with strong resale potential? A raw card that looks like a clear PSA 9 or possible PSA 10? A quick flip that needs fast funding? Card Partners can help provide the capital and partner with you on the upside.
If you have the access, the relationships, and the ability to move product, Card Partners can help you buy more of it.
Real deals we've structured — so the concept is tangible. Every opportunity is agreed in writing before any capital is committed.
We deployed $200,000 into an approved streamer’s purchasing pool for sealed breaks — roughly $3,865 cost per unit against ~$8,300 revenue per unit.
We funded two 2025 Topps Chrome Jayden Daniels True Black autos for $5,400 — both with strong grading upside and a clear offseason resale strategy.
A card pulled live sold for $165k with a $200k buyer already lined up. We bridged the gap in a few days so the streamer never missed the deal.
*Payouts depend on the specific deal structure and terms agreed before capital is committed.
Traditional lenders don't always understand this business.
We do.
Card Partners was created specifically around the way inventory moves through the collectibles industry.
We understand that access to capital can be the difference between watching an opportunity pass by and taking advantage of it.
You shouldn't have to choose between buying today's opportunity and keeping enough cash available for tomorrow's. Card Partners gives qualified operators another source of purchasing power.
Card Partners considers opportunities involving:
Real sealed product we've funded — from mega boxes to high-end hobby cases. When an allocation lands or a release drops, we move on it fast.
Experienced people and businesses with legitimate access to inventory — and an established way to sell it.
If access to capital is keeping you from buying more product, Card Partners wants to hear from you.
Card Partners was created to solve a real problem in the collectibles business: great opportunities often move faster than available capital.
Streamers, breakers, card shops, dealers, wholesalers, distributors, and resellers see opportunities every day. Sealed cases and boxes, allocations, collections, bulk inventory, and single cards with real resale upside can all create real profit. But without the right capital partner, many of those opportunities are missed.
That is where Card Partners comes in.
We provide purchasing capital to qualified businesses and collectible professionals who know the market, understand the product, and have access to strong opportunities. Our goal is not just to fund one purchase. Our goal is to become a long-term capital partner as those businesses grow.
We believe the best partnerships are built on trust, transparency, and performance. Every deal is structured upfront, every opportunity is reviewed, and every partner understands the terms before capital is committed.

the capital, structure, and support to help make it happen.
Card Partners was built by entrepreneurs who understand what it takes to grow a business when opportunity moves faster than available capital.
Founder Marcus Stern spent more than 25 years building one of the largest secondary ticket businesses in the country, deploying hundreds of millions of dollars annually into time-sensitive inventory opportunities.
That experience led to Card Partners.
We saw the same challenge across the collectibles industry: successful operators consistently have more opportunities than available capital.
Card Partners was created to solve that problem — providing qualified partners with the capital to buy more inventory, take advantage of opportunities, and grow their businesses without tying up all of their own cash.
We provide the capital. You focus on the opportunity.
Marcus is an entrepreneur with more than 25 years of experience building and scaling businesses around inventory, capital, and fast-moving opportunities. As co-founder of Anytickets.com, he helped build one of the largest secondary ticket businesses in the country, deploying hundreds of millions of dollars annually into event inventory.
He founded Card Partners around a simple idea: successful streamers and card buyers shouldn't have to pass on great opportunities simply because their capital is tied up elsewhere.
Established breakers with a consistent stream, a real audience, and a history of moving product. We look at your track record and the specific opportunity — not follower counts alone.
How is the profit split decided?
Every opportunity is structured before any funds are committed, so both parties know exactly how the deal works in advance.
Streamer Case Funding
CARD Partners provides the capital to purchase your cases and boxes so you can focus on growing your business.
Once the product is sold, you simply repay the original cost of the product plus an agreed-upon funding fee. Everything you earn above those amounts is yours to keep.
Our goal is simple: help established streamers scale their business without tying up their own capital.
Raw & Graded Card Opportunities
Every card opportunity is different, which is why every partnership is structured individually.
We consider several factors when determining the profit split, including:
For short-term opportunities where our capital may only be committed for a day or two, the buyer who sources the deal will typically receive the larger share of the profits. Opportunities that require grading, longer holding periods, or involve additional risk generally have a more balanced profit split.
Qualified buyers can earn up to 80% of the net profit, depending on the opportunity.
Every partnership is agreed upon in writing before any funds are deployed, ensuring complete transparency and alignment between CARD Partners and our buying partners.
Sealed cases and boxes for live breaks, plus raw and graded singles with clear resale upside. If there is a defensible reason it will sell for more than it costs, we want to hear about it.
Streamer Case Funding
Once you're approved as a CARD Partners streamer, you'll be assigned a dedicated purchasing account and an approved credit line.
Your credit line can be used immediately with our approved distributors and vendors to purchase eligible cases and boxes. For normal inventory purchases, no additional approvals are required, allowing you to buy product as opportunities arise.
If you're planning a purchase outside of your normal buying activity or outside your approved limits, a quick review by your CARD Partners account representative may be required before the purchase is authorized.
Our goal is to keep you buying, not waiting for approvals.
