Crown Royal Tier
Built for operators moving serious volume.
Wholesale pricing. Priority turnaround. Direct access to Crown.
This isn’t for everyone — only partners built to scale.
All applications are reviewed manually. Qualified partners are contacted directly.
Built For Operators Who Move Volume
If you’re moving inventory consistently, this is built for you. If you’re not — this isn’t.
Crown Royal Tier is not a general submission upgrade. It’s a partner program for operators who grade at volume and need more than a portal.
Collectors and operators processing large batches on a consistent, recurring basis.
Shops, LGS owners, and online sellers who need graded inventory flowing consistently.
Creators who open, feature, and sell cards and need a grading pipeline that matches their output.
Bulk operators who move graded product across multiple channels and platforms.
Sellers who buy raw, grade strategically, and sell graded — and need volume rates to protect their margins.
Businesses building systematic grading workflows and need a reliable, scalable partner.
What You Unlock

Built for Real Operators
Crown Royal Tier partners operate at a different level. Here’s what that looks like in practice.
“Crown helped us increase turnover speed and protect our margins. The priority turnaround alone changed how we run our operation.”
“The only grading partner that actually scales with our business. Direct contact, real support, and pricing that makes sense at volume.”
Custom Pricing Based on Volume
Your rate is built around your operation. Volume, consistency, and business model all factor into your pricing — there is no one-size-fits-all number.
Top partners operate at significantly reduced cost per card.
See Your Rate ↓Program requires a minimum monthly submission quantity to qualify.
We only onboard a limited number of new partners each month to maintain turnaround speed and quality.
Where You Likely Fall
Not every operation is at the same stage. Here’s how to read where your volume sits — and what that unlocks.
You’re building volume or grading selectively. Standard submissions are the right fit — Crown Royal Tier opens up as you scale.
You’re moving consistent volume and cost-per-card is starting to matter. This is the zone where wholesale pricing makes a real difference.
High-output operators with a real pipeline. Crown Royal Tier is built for this — priority, pricing, and infrastructure aligned to your operation.
Crown Isn’t Just Grading
It’s infrastructure for your card business. Royal Tier partners get visibility and tools that keep your operation running tight.
Every card in your pipeline, visible in real time. Status, stage, and history in one place.
See exactly where your batch sits. No guessing, no support tickets — just clarity.
Volume trends, grade distributions, and output metrics to help you optimize your pipeline.
Every subgrade, every card, stored and accessible. Build your inventory with full documentation.
Graded cards with verification links, subgrades, and Crown Database entries — ready to list the moment they ship back.
