A2 · THE IDEA
Vending, but the product is a pull.
A card machine only works if what's inside is worth opening. EdinCard stocks each unit with sealed Pokémon TCG packs, from current sets through to sought after reprints, checked and refilled by hand rather than left to sit.
No membership, no reservation window. If the light's on, the slot's live.

A4 · WHAT'S INSIDE
Three ways to fill a slot.
Every machine carries a mix, so the same row never feels the same twice.
Two pack bundle
A mixed-era pairing dropped together, weighted toward sets that are getting harder to find on shelf.
Limited fill
Special edition or reprint product, loaded in small runs. Shows up, sells out, doesn't come back on schedule.
B1–B3 · HOW IT WORKS
Three slots, start to finish.
Tap in
Card or contactless at the machine. No account, no app download.
Watch it drop
Pick a slot, hear the coil turn, catch the pack as it lands. What you see stocked is what's inside.
Open it live
Rip it at the machine or take it home. Either way, it's yours the second it lands in the tray.
C1 · WHERE TO FIND ONE
Machines are going into Edinburgh venues now.
We're placing the first units across the city through late 2026. Leave your email and we'll tell you the moment one lands near you.
C2 · FOR VENUE OWNERS
Host a machine, keep the floor space working.
EdinCard supplies, stocks, and services the unit. You get a footfall draw and a share of every vend, with zero stock to manage yourself. Good fits: game shops, cafés, comic and collectible stores, arcades, student unions.
- 01We install and insure the machine
- 02We restock and audit on a set schedule
- 03You take a cut of every pack sold on site
EXPECT
A unit that fits by a till point or entrance, roughly the footprint of a small arcade cabinet.
Servicing on a fixed schedule, so it's never the empty machine in the corner.
A simple revenue share, agreed before install, paid on schedule.
C3 · QUESTIONS
Before you tap in.
What's actually inside a slot?
Sealed, factory fresh Pokémon TCG packs. Nothing is opened, resealed, or swapped before it goes in the machine.
How do I pay?
Contactless card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay at the machine. No cash, no account, no app to install first.
What if a pack or slot misfires?
Email us within 48 hours with the machine location and time, and we'll sort a replacement or refund.
How do you decide what's stocked?
Rotated by set availability and demand at each venue, refilled on a set visiting schedule rather than left to run dry.
Do you take trade-ins or submissions?
Not at the machine, not yet. It's on the roadmap as we add more units.
Can I get a machine at my venue?
Yes. See the Host a machine section above, or email us directly.
