Why Our Card Binder

8 Reasons Collectors and Retailers Keep Coming Back

Every feature engineered around one question — what does a serious set-collector need to display every card, protect every sleeve, and carry every binder without fear?

📚

Side-Load Pages - Anti-Drop

All pages use top-sealed side-load pocket design - cards cannot fall out when the binder is held upside-down. 40 N peel force before any card exits.

♻️

Acid-Free PVC-Free PP

Zero PVC, zero plasticizer, zero sulphur. Acid-free PP sheet protects card surface and printed ink for indefinite archival storage. REACH SVHC-free.

🔒

Zipper-Sealed Option

Premium zipper spine seals every page pocket when closed. Ideal for convention vendors, traders and collectors who transport their binders in a backpack.

📖

Removable Page System

D-ring binders allow individual page removal - perfect for set collectors who trade pages with friends, reorganise by set or insert new pages when a set expands.

🎨

Full-Wrap Custom Cover

Any artwork - player fan art, game logo, custom commission - printed across front, spine and back in CMYK offset or UV digital. MOQ 500 pcs.

🎴

Sleeved-Card Ready

Every pocket dimensioned at 69mm internal width - accommodates a card sleeved in standard 66x91mm or Japanese 62x89mm sleeve without tight press or bowing.

📦

7 Capacity Options

100 / 160 / 200 / 360 / 480 / 720 / 960 single-sleeved cards. Expandable page packs available for all ring-spine variants.

Card Binder FAQ

14 Answers to Wholesale and Retail Buyer Questions

Real questions from LGS distributors, Amazon sellers and TCG publishers - answered straight, no fluff.

01What is the MOQ for custom-cover Card Binders?+

MOQ starts from 500 pcs per SKU (per capacity + cover + colour combination). Blank stock binders available from 100 pcs. Sample MOQ is 1 pc for existing tooling. Volume tiers at 1,000 / 5,000 / 20,000 pcs unlock progressive discounts.

02What page formats do you offer — 9-pocket or 12-pocket?+

Both. 9-pocket pages hold 9 sleeved cards per page (standard side-load). 12-pocket pages hold 12 per page for higher density storage. We also offer 4-pocket oversize pages for full-art land cards, jumbo cards and arcade card formats. Mixed-page binders (9+12-pocket combo) available on request.

03Do your binder pages hold sleeved cards?+

Yes. All our standard pages are dimensioned to hold a card sleeved in a standard 66x91mm or Japanese 62x89mm sleeve. Page pocket inner width: 69mm standard (sleeve+card fits without tight press). Over-sized pages for sleeved Toploaders also available.

04What is the difference between zipper and ring-binder spine?+

Zipper binder: fully sealed — cards cannot fall out during transit or bag drop. Preferred by convention-goers, vendors and collectors who transport their binders. Ring binder: pages are individually removable and replaceable — preferred by serious set collectors who want to trade pages in and out. We offer both.

05Are your binder pages acid-free and safe for long-term card storage?+

Yes. All binder pages use acid-free, PVC-free, plasticizer-free polypropylene sheet. No sulphur, no chemical migration to card surface. REACH SVHC-free, RoHS compliant. Safe for indefinite archival storage — the same spec used by professional collectors and auction house inventories.

06What cover materials do you offer?+

Four standard covers: PU Leatherette (premium feel, wipe-clean), Hard Cardboard with foil print (budget retail), Nylon fabric (lightweight, machine-washable), Full-art PP print board (custom artwork wraparound). Any custom material on request with 1,000 pcs MOQ.

07Can you print custom artwork on the cover?+

Yes. Full-wraparound custom artwork (front + spine + back) on PP print board cover. Silk-screen, UV digital and offset printing all supported. CMYK artwork file required (PDF/AI/PSD 300dpi+). MOQ 500 pcs for custom cover art.

08What capacities do you manufacture?+

Seven standard capacities: 100, 160, 200, 360, 480, 720 and 960 cards. Custom capacities with extra rings or expandable page packs available. Largest standard binder holds 960 single-sleeved cards or 480 double-sleeved cards.

09What is the lead time from PO to shipment?+

Stock cover + blank pages: 15-20 days from 30% T/T deposit. Custom cover artwork: 25-35 days. New tooling (custom size or ring): 45-60 days. Fastest restock for repeat orders: 10 days.

10Do you offer Amazon FBA direct shipping?+

Yes. FNSKU labelling, individual poly-bagging, master carton compliance (<=22.7kg), pallet stacking and direct-to-FBA shipping from Shenzhen / Guangzhou to US, UK, DE, FR, JP FBA warehouses. FBA labelling fee waived on orders >=2,000 pcs.

11What certifications do your binders carry?+

REACH SVHC-free (pages), RoHS, CPSIA lead-free. PU cover material meets EN 71-3 toy-safety chemical standard (no heavy metals). Factory ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 certified. SGS reports on request.

12Can we bundle binders with Sleeves and Toploaders into one kit?+

Yes — this is one of our fastest-growing OEM categories. Starter Kit (Binder + 100pcs Sleeves + 25pcs Toploaders) ships in one master carton, one FNSKU, one FBA shipment. Saves 15-20% vs separate orders and simplifies your Amazon FBA inventory.

13Do you protect our custom design IP?+

Yes. Bilateral NDA signed before you share any artwork file. Custom artwork plates are tagged and stored separately — never used for third-party runs. Registered design protection filing support available on request.

14What payment terms do you accept?+

30% T/T deposit + 70% against BL copy standard. L/C at sight for orders above USD 30,000. Alibaba Trade Assurance for extra protection. Repeat buyers with 12+ months of history may apply for O/A 30-60 day terms.
