Try it — no account needed

What did that sale actually make?

Enter one sale. ProfitWire does this for every sale — with your real fees, refunds, and cost basis.

Estimated profit
—
Enter sold price, cost, and shipping.

Estimate only. Marketplace fees, taxes, refunds, and other adjustments may affect final profit.

The workflow

One continuous line from purchase to profit.

ProfitWire follows the card, not just the sale. Every stage carries cost forward so the final number means something.

  1. 01

    Source

    Purchases, rips, and breaks enter with their real acquisition cost.

  2. 02

    Identify

    ProfitScan and imports turn raw cards into structured records.

  3. 03

    Inventory

    Normalized inventory, each item carrying its own cost basis.

  4. 04

    List

    Publish eligible single cards and multi-card lots directly to eBay.

  5. 05

    Sell

    Record sales from any channel. eBay activity syncs into the ledger automatically.

  6. 06

    Reconcile

    Fees, shipping, and expenses matched to the transaction.

  7. 07

    Profit

    What the business actually earned, not what it grossed.

Financial intelligence

Know what your business actually earned.

A sales total is not profit. ProfitWire subtracts the things that quietly eat margin — marketplace fees, shipping, and the cost of the card itself.

Cost basis travels with every item from the moment it enters inventory, including cards allocated out of sealed product. When the sale lands, the math is already correct.

ProfitWire is business software. It is not tax, accounting, or legal advice.

  • Sale price$420.00
  • Marketplace fees−$56.70
  • Shipping−$18.40
  • Cost basis−$237.00

Lifecycle

Every card carries its history to the end.

ProfitWire is not a price index and not a spreadsheet replacement. It tracks the full life of an item and closes it with a financial result.

  1. Inventory record

    Item, condition, and acquisition cost captured on intake.

  2. Sale

    Order imported from your connected marketplace account.

  3. Reconciliation

    Fees and shipping matched against the transaction.

  4. Actual profit

    The record closes with a real margin attached.

ProfitScan

ProfitScan

Turn scanned card data into actionable inventory.

Scan, review, confirm, and hand cards directly into Inventory or RipTracker without losing track of the workflow.

  • Scan cards moving through your desk
  • Review and confirm identified details
  • Hand cards directly into Inventory
  • Or send them into a RipTracker session
RipTracker

Track card allocation and outcomes from breaks, rips, and box-level activity.

RipTracker keeps card-level value, inventory destination, and allocation history tied back to the original rip — so a hit sold six months later still knows what it cost you.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

ProfitWire is a business operating system for trading card sellers. It brings inventory, cost basis, listings, marketplace sales, fees, shipping, expenses, reporting, and business intelligence into one system.

For each sale, ProfitWire subtracts the card's cost basis, marketplace fees, shipping, and refunds from what the buyer paid. When a card's cost is unknown, that sale is flagged as incomplete instead of being counted as full profit.

Spreadsheets can track numbers, but you have to keep them updated yourself. ProfitWire connects what you paid for inventory with marketplace sales, fees, and other selling costs, so you can see what you actually made without rebuilding the math after every sale.

A spreadsheet can track your numbers, but keeping inventory costs, selling fees, shipping expenses, and sales profits accurate takes ongoing manual work. ProfitWire brings those records together so sports-card sellers can understand what they actually make on each sale and where their money is going.

There is a Free plan at $0, a Seller plan at $19.99/month, and a Pro plan at $29.99/month. The Seller and Pro plans include a 14-day trial before your first charge. A payment card is collected when a paid trial starts; the Free plan needs no card.
