New to Card Breaks?

Card breaking is one of the most exciting ways to collect trading cards, giving collectors the chance to own cards from premium products without purchasing an entire box. Whether you're looking for your favourite football club, a specific player, or simply enjoy the thrill of opening packs, breaks offer a fun and affordable way to get involved in the hobby.

What is a Card Break?

A card break is when a sealed box, case, or product is opened live on stream by a breaker. Collectors purchase a spot before the break begins, with each spot assigned to a team, player, division, or random allocation depending on the break format.

Any cards pulled that match your purchased spot are then shipped directly to you.

How Do Breaks Work?

1. Choose a Break

Browse available breaks and find one that interests you.

2. Purchase a Spot

Depending on the break, you may purchase:

  • A specific team

  • A random team

  • A specific player

  • A random player

3. Watch Live

Join the live stream and enjoy the box opening as the breaker reveals the cards.

4. Receive Your Cards

Any cards matching your purchased spot are securely packed and shipped to you.
