Magic: The Gathering

All Magic: The Gathering endpoints live under /mtg. Same API key, same rate limits and the same response format as the Pokémon endpoints.

Card IDs

Format	Example	Used for
`mtg_` + hex	`mtg_2c2bae815d1b5d823542…`	Every card with a TCGPlayer product, even if it also has CardMarket data
64 hex characters, no prefix	`e26f12b8b1fabf19…`	Cards that exist only on CardMarket

A mtg_… ID only works under /mtg/. Finishes of the same product (Normal, Foil, …) are one card with one ID; each finish has its own TCGPlayer price. If you request a card by its CardMarket ID and it is linked to a TCGPlayer product, the response uses the canonical mtg_… ID.

Response Format

Same shape as the Pokémon API: card_info, images, tcgplayer.prices and cardmarket.prices as arrays, pagination, errors as { "error", "message" }. Differences:

Field	Magic: The Gathering
Game fields in `card_info`	Instead of Pokémon's `hp`, `stage`, `attacks`…, the game's own fields in snake_case (present when the card has them): `sub_type`, `flavor_text`, `p`, `t`, `upc`
`card_type`, `card_text`	Filled from the game's card type and rules text. `card_text` may contain HTML (`<strong>`, `<em>`…) as provided by TCGPlayer.
`card_info.variants`, `card_info.set_id`	Always present, on every endpoint
`product_type`	`"card"`, `"sealed"` or `null` when unknown — see Data Notes
`release_date`	ISO format, e.g. `"2025-03-07T00:00:00"` (Pokémon uses `"16th June, 2023"`)
`images.languages`	`["en"]`, or `[]` when there is no image

Magic: The Gathering Endpoints

GET/mtg/sets

All Magic: The Gathering sets.

Response Fields:

Field	Type	Description
`name`	string	Set name
`set_code`	string \| null	Short code. Not unique: several sets can share it.
`set_id`	string	Unique set identifier. Negative for sets that exist only on CardMarket.
`card_count`	integer	Cards in the set (sealed products excluded). Omitted, not 0, if temporarily unavailable.
`sealed_count`	integer	Sealed products in the set (booster boxes, displays, decks). Omitted, not 0, if temporarily unavailable.
`language`	string \| null	Set language
`release_date`	string \| null	ISO date

Example Request:

cURL

curl -H "X-API-Key: pk_live_your_key_here" \
     "https://api.pokewallet.io/mtg/sets"

      "sealed_count": 0,
      "language": "eng",
      "release_date": null
    }
  ],
  "total": 514
}

GET/mtg/sets/:set

Cards of one set, paginated. Prices are empty in set listings, as on the Pokémon API: use /mtg/cards/:id for prices.

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`set`	string	Required	`set_id` (recommended, always unique) or `set_code` (exact match, case-insensitive)
`page`	number	Optional	Page number (default: 1)
`limit`	number	Optional	Results per page (default: 50, max: 200)

Disambiguation Response:

When a set_code is shared by several sets, the API returns the candidates instead of a set (status 200, as on the Pokémon API). Call again with the set_id you need.

metadata.truncated: true means more cards match than the search returns: add words to narrow it down. Words match anywhere in the name; a query shorter than 3 characters matches names and card numbers that start with it (27 finds 27, 027/264, 0027). Quotes are ignored; *, % and _ are plain text, not wildcards.

GET/mtg/images/:id

The card image, one resolution (X-Image-Size: unsized): the size parameter of the Pokémon image endpoint does not apply. Cached for 24 hours.

Example Request:

cURL

curl -H "X-API-Key: pk_live_your_key_here" \
     "https://api.pokewallet.io/mtg/images/mtg_2c2bae815d1b5d8235423b0c89f43f5383afbff3adbe2b6a895216ea36ddb4f83d2fec580f087b6707d9" \

Ultra endpoints

Available on Ultra and Business plans, or during the 7-day trial. The Pro plan covers Pokémon and One Piece only: with Pro these endpoints answer 403 with an upgrade_url. Ultra includes everything in Pro. Same parameters and response format as the Pokémon endpoints of the same name.

Endpoint	What it returns
`GET /mtg/prices/:set`	TCGPlayer and CardMarket prices for every card of a set, one row per finish. `?source=tcg\|cm`
`GET /mtg/sets/:set/statistics`	Price statistics and rarity breakdown. Sealed products excluded. `?variant=normal\|foil`
`GET /mtg/sets/:set/completion-value`	Cost of one copy of every card in the set. Sealed products excluded.
`GET /mtg/sets/trending`	Sets whose CardMarket prices moved most: 7-day average against 30-day average, cards from 1 € up. `?period=7d` `?limit=`
`GET /mtg/analytics/top-cards`	Most expensive cards, or fastest-growing on CardMarket (7-day average against 30-day average, cards from 1 € up; `current_price` is the 7-day average). `?metric=price\|growth` `?source=tcg\|cm` `?limit=`

Price history is a Pokémon feature: for this game there is no /cards/:id/price-history. Current prices are in the card detail and in /mtg/prices/:set; metric=growth works with source=cm only, and trending supports period=7d only.

GET /mtg/prices/:set (first rows)

Data Notes

Prices. TCGPlayer and CardMarket prices are refreshed daily. CardMarket has one entry per finish (normal, foil); a finish CardMarket does not price is left out, so cardmarket.prices can be empty. updated_at is when that price last changed, not when it was last checked: a stable price keeps an older date.

product_type. Cards and sealed products are told apart using TCGPlayer data, then CardTrader. Tokens, emblems and oversized cards count as "card". For the very few products whose type cannot be determined, product_type is null, not "card".

CardMarket-only sets. Sets with a negative set_id exist only on CardMarket: their cards have 64-character IDs and tcgplayer: null.

Missing links. cardmarket.product_url is absent for some cards; the card data is still valid. Sets with no cards are not listed: they appear as soon as cards are added.

Error Handling

The API uses standard HTTP status codes to indicate success or failure:

200

Request successful

400

Bad Request

Invalid parameters or malformed request

401

Unauthorized

Missing or invalid API key

403

Forbidden

Paid endpoint without the required plan or an active trial: Pro for Pokémon and One Piece, Ultra for the other games. The body includes redeem_url (trial not activated yet) or upgrade_url (trial expired).

404

Not Found

Card, set or image does not exist

405

Method Not Allowed

The API only accepts GET requests.

409

Conflict

/sets/:setCode/image: the set code matches several sets. Retry with ?language= or the numeric set_id.

429

Too Many Requests

Rate limit exceeded

500

Internal Server Error

Something went wrong on our side

502

Bad Gateway

An image could not be fetched from its source. Temporary: retry later.

Errors on game endpoints (`/mtg`, `/ygo`, …)

Status	`error`	When
400	`Invalid or corrupted card ID`	ID is neither `<game>_…` nor 64 hex, or belongs to another game
400	`Query parameter required`	`q` missing, shorter than 2 or longer than 100 characters
400	`Search query rejected`	`q` contains SQL-like text: rephrase it
400	`Invalid or corrupted card ID` + `did_you_mean`	The ID belongs to another game (e.g. a `lor_…` ID on `/mtg/cards`): `did_you_mean` has the right path
404	`Set not found` + `suggestions`	No set with that `set_id`/`set_code`. If you wrote the set name, `suggestions` lists the matching sets with their `set_id`
404	`Card not found`, `Image not found`	Card or image does not exist
502	`Image not available`	Image source temporarily unreachable
503	`Search temporarily unavailable`	The search took too long under load. Retry after the seconds in the `Retry-After` header, or use more specific words

Error Response Format

Every error has error (short, stable) and message (what to fix). When the API can tell what you meant, did_you_mean contains the corrected path:

// GET /magic/sets
  {
    "error": "Endpoint not found",
    "message": "Did you mean /mtg/sets?",
    "did_you_mean": "/mtg/sets",
    "docs": "https://pokewallet.io/api-docs"
  }

Authentication errors (401) also include an example request. A trailing slash is ignored: /sets/ and /sets are the same endpoint.

Best Practices

Use Environment Variables

Never hardcode API keys. Always use environment variables or secure secret management.

Handle Rate Limits Gracefully

Implement exponential backoff when you receive a 429 response. Check rate limit headers to avoid hitting limits.

Cache Results

Cache API responses when appropriate to reduce requests and improve performance.

Use Search Endpoint

Always use /search for the most complete and accurate data.

Monitor Your Usage

Check your dashboard regularly to track API usage and avoid unexpected rate limit hits.

Error Handling

Always implement proper error handling for network failures, rate limits, and invalid responses.

Security Reminder: Keep your API keys secure. If you suspect a key has been compromised, revoke it immediately from your dashboard and generate a new one.
