How we rank
Six of the sites we rank sell sports card packs: Arena Club, Courtyard, Phygitals, ClutchPacks, PackDraw and BOXED. For most sports collectors the choice comes down to three things: which sports a site covers, who grades the slabs you pull, and whether you can see the odds before you buy.
Which sports does each site cover?
| Site | Sports | Grading | Odds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arena Club | Baseball, basketball, football, soccer | In-house AC slabs; vault accepts PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC | Published per-card hit rates |
| Courtyard | Baseball, basketball, football | PSA, CGC or BGS slabs | Not disclosed in its terms |
| Phygitals | Baseball, basketball, football, soccer | Cards vaulted with PSA, Fanatics or Alt | Provably fair draws |
| ClutchPacks | Baseball, basketball, football, soccer, multisport | PSA, BGS or CGC slabs, or checked by its own team | Full checklist, tier odds and public pull statistics |
| BOXED | A handful of boxes, including football added in September 2026 | Varies by item | Full drop table, plus provably fair draws |
| PackDraw | Graded sports cards (sports not broken out) | Varies by item | Provably fair seeds, no audit |
Rip.fun sells Pokémon only, and LastPack, MNSTR, GotYa and PullBox don’t sell sports cards yet (MNSTR lists sports packs as coming soon, and GotYa has empty sports tabs), so none of them appear here.
Why does the grader matter for sports cards?
If you plan to sell a card outside the site you pulled it on, the grading company affects what buyers will pay. Arena Club’s in-house AC slabs may not carry PSA-level premiums outside its own marketplace. Courtyard’s packs contain PSA, CGC or BGS slabs, which are widely recognized. Our guide to Pokémon vs sports mystery packs covers resale in more detail.
What should you check before a sports rip?
- That the site covers your sport and the grader you want.
- The buyback window: Courtyard’s is instant, while Arena Club’s opens after a wait. Our buyback rates comparison has the full picture.
- Arena Club’s Hit Feed, to see which top cards are still in a pack, or ClutchPacks’ transparency page, to see how past pulls landed.
- ClutchPacks’ sell-back offer after each pull, since it doesn’t publish its buyback rate.
- Shipping and retrieval fees if you want the slab in hand.

FAQ
Which sites sell sports card packs?
Six of the sites we rank sell sports cards: Arena Club, Courtyard, Phygitals, ClutchPacks, PackDraw and BOXED, which added sports boxes in September 2026. Rip.fun sells Pokémon only, LastPack and PullBox focus on other card games, and MNSTR and GotYa list sports as coming or empty.
Which site covers the most sports?
Arena Club, Phygitals and ClutchPacks all cover baseball, basketball, football and soccer, and ClutchPacks adds multisport packs. Courtyard covers baseball, basketball and football. PackDraw lists graded sports cards but does not break them down by sport in the sources we checked.
Are AC slabs worth as much as PSA slabs?
Not always. Arena Club grades cards in house as AC slabs, and these may not carry the same resale premium as PSA slabs outside Arena Club's marketplace. Courtyard's pack cards are PSA, CGC or BGS slabs.
Is Arena Club owned by Derek Jeter?
Derek Jeter co-founded Arena Club in 2022 with Brian Lee and Jesse Glass. The company is Arenaclub.com, Inc., based in Los Angeles.
Can I add my own sports slabs to a rip site vault?
Yes, at some sites. Arena Club accepts PSA, BGS, SGC and CGC slabs, and Courtyard accepts graded cards from PSA, CGC, eBay and Fanatics Collect.
