Trading card refers to a small card made up of paper board and thick paper containing the picture of a particular location, person, item, or statistics. The subject of non-sports trading cards can particularly be anything other than sports-themed illustration. It can include pictures of celebrities, comic characters, famous places, and animals, just to name a few. This massive growth is primarily driven by technological advancements in the field of trading cards, rapid urbanization, and the emergence of new markets in developing economies. Alongside, growing interest of the mid-aged population towards the nostalgic game of trading card collection is positively swaying the industry dynamics. Moreover, escalating demand for vintage cards along with surging number of events promising large prize pools are creating lucrative opportunities for the market to prosper. However, fluctuating prices of trading cards and lack of awareness about their availability are impeding the progression of this industry sphere.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak shifted the preference of the masses towards online or virtual trading game cards. The pandemic-induced protocols restricted the unnecessary movements of people, thereby reducing the demand and sales of physical cards. But due to the high internet penetration across the region, online trading game cards gained massive traction.
With technological advancements on its peak, there has been a rise in internet penetration and the adoption of smart devices. This has paved a way for non-sports trading card dealers to build their customer base online. Moreover, the increasing inclination of young adults towards social media platforms is another factor that is creating awareness regarding the availability of trading cards. There has been a massive increase in the purchasing power of the masses across North America owing to prompt economic growth and urbanization. This in turn has boosted the sales of non-sports trading cards across nations including Canada and U.S.
