what's Courtyard?

Courtyard is a blockchain-based marketplace specializing in tokenized versions of physical collectibles, with a primary focus on Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) cards as NFTs. Built on the Polygon network, it enables users to buy, sell, and trade digital twins of real-world cards, bridging physical and digital ownership through phygital NFTs. These tokens represent authenticated physical cards that can be redeemed, providing liquidity and global access to collectors while maintaining scarcity via blockchain verification. The platform supports seamless integration with traditional grading services like PSA, ensuring trust and value preservation. A key feature is its gacha-style booster pack system, where users purchase blind digital packs to reveal random cards, mimicking the excitement of physical TCG openings but with instant blockchain minting and trading. This has driven high engagement, with mechanisms for rarity-based rewards and community events. Courtyard emphasizes low transaction fees and scalability, positioning it as a leader in the Web3 collectibles space for gaming IP like Pokémon, fostering a shared economy for enthusiasts to speculate, collect, and monetize assets without intermediaries.

Courtyard generated $6M in revenue over 30 days as of March 25, 2026.
