CGC Member Benefits

Can I make submissions to other CCG companies?

Yes. Your paid annual membership in the CGC Collectors Society automatically gives you direct submission privileges to Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), Numismatic Conservation Services (NCS) and Paper Money Guaranty (PMG). Use your same login information to make submissions within these other companies. Note: This does not apply to the free level of membership.

How do I use my Premium or Elite member credit to submit trading cards?

The Premium and Elite membership levels offer a $150 credit as an additional benefit. This credit will be automatically applied to your submissions until it is used up. There is no need to request that CGC apply this credit. 

How do I use my $150 credit?

Your $150 grading credit will be automatically applied to fees associated with your submissions until it is used up, including grading fees, shipping, handling, etc.

Does the credit that I received with my Premium or Elite membership have an expiration date?

Yes, the credit will expire on the membership expiration date listed in your confirmation email.

Can I submit additional trading cards on the same invoice as my free grading submission?

Yes! We will apply the credit to your submissions until it is used up.
