CGC Trading Cards and CSG Launch Vault Partnership with PWCC Marketplace

The Certified Collectibles Group® (CCG®) and its trading and sports card experts at CGC Trading Cards® and Certified Sports Guaranty® (CSG®) are offering clients the ability to immediately vault their newly authenticated and graded cards with PWCC Marketplace, one of the most advanced collectibles marketplaces in the world.

This strategic partnership is a natural operational development in the relationship between the Certified Collectibles Group and PWCC after the two announced streamlined trading and sports card authentication services in 2022.

“The expansion of our partnership with PWCC translates to a more streamlined process of grading, storing and transacting for collectors,” said Steven R. Eichenbaum, CEO of the Certified Collectibles Group. “PWCC is a trusted source for safely storing and conveniently buying and selling collectibles, and giving our submitters the option to send their certified cards directly to PWCC improves the collector experience.”

The PWCC Vault — located in the sales tax-free state of Oregon — has expertly archived, secured, and insured a diverse range of physical asset classes since its launch in 2019. This new partnership provides an immediately accessible and robust vaulting solution for collectors of trading and sports cards.

Collectors submitting assets for authentication and grading simply create a free PWCC account and select “Send to My PWCC Vault” when filling out the CGC Trading Cards or CSG online submission form.

Cards submitted to CGC Trading Cards and CSG will be authenticated, graded, encapsulated and priority shipped to PWCC where they receive high-resolution imaging and are curated into a client’s PWCC Vault Portfolio.

A PWCC Vault Portfolio empowers collectors and investors by offering them immediate access to a robust menu of benefits:

• The PWCC Vault features real-time insurance valuations and robust physical security. Assets can be accessed and managed at any time via a digital portfolio featuring high-resolution imaging and PWCC value estimates.
• PWCC Marketplace provides auction and fixed-price markets that draw in more than 200,000 potential buyers across the platform. Assets in a portfolio can be listed on any market at any time, 24/7.
• PWCC Capital offers easy-to-use financial offerings using vault assets as collateral. These include no-fee cash advances and low-fee asset-backed loans.
• Concierge-level customer service and white glove shipping services allow any questions or requests to be responded to swiftly.

“Adding streamlined PWCC vaulting services to CGC Trading Cards and CSG submissions aligns with the goals of both companies to better serve the collecting community,” said Jesse Craig, Vice President of Sales at PWCC Marketplace. “This vault partnership is exciting because it improves access to security, insurance, marketplaces, and capital offerings for clients and their collections.”
