The best part of opening a trading-card pack is finding out what’s inside. OG.com is bringing that moment to your phone—and adding an immediate offer to buy the card you pull.

The company [launched OG.com Rips on October 29](https://og.com/company-news/ogcom-brings-the-thrill-of-live-pack-ripping-with-launch-of-ogcom-rips), letting users open digital packs containing physical cards across **NFL, NBA, MLB and Pokémon**. After the animated reveal, collectors can accept a cash buyback or have their card shipped to their door.

Available through [OG.com](https://og.com/rips) and its mobile app, the feature brings buying, revealing and selling into one place. For collectors, the appeal is straightforward: no separate marketplace listing or search for a buyer when they want to cash out.

## Digital Packs, Physical Cards

The opening happens on a screen, but the card behind it is physical.

Users choose from six tiers: **Rookie, Emerald, Ruby, Titan, Legend and OG Eternal**. According to OG.com, each tier shows the odds of pulling particular cards and the standout collectibles available in its pool. Examples include autographed football rookie cards, NBA Prizm cards and vintage first-edition Pokémon holographic cards.

Packs can be purchased using Apple Pay, Google Pay or a credit or debit card, without first loading money into an account. The reveal animation is designed for recording and sharing across X, Instagram and TikTok.

Once revealed, the card appears in the user’s in-app Vault, alongside rarity information, portfolio tracking and a buyback offer. OG.com says the physical card is held in a third-party custody network.

## Seven Days to Choose

The most important detail comes after the reveal: **collectors have seven days to decide what happens to their card.**

They can:

- **Accept the buyback:** The offered amount is credited immediately to their OG.com account balance, avoiding a separate sale and buyer negotiation.
- **Request delivery:** The physical card is shipped with tracking and insurance.

**If the user does nothing within seven days, the buyback offer is automatically accepted.** Anyone who wants the physical card needs to request delivery before that window closes.

That makes the Vault a place to review a pull and make a decision, rather than somewhere to leave the card indefinitely. The announcement does not disclose pack prices or explain how buyback offers are calculated.

## Another Reason for Sports Fans to Open the App

The launch follows [Crypto.com and OG.com’s introduction of U.S. crypto perpetuals](https://blockster.com/cryptocom-and-ogcom-bring-247-crypto-perpetuals-to-us-traders), which Blockster covered earlier this week. That rollout gave eligible traders access to contracts with up to 5× leverage. Rips adds a different activity: collecting physical cards through the same broader platform.

The two launches suggest a push to give users more reasons to return, whether they follow markets, sports or collectibles. Rips also builds sharing into the experience: a memorable pull can become a social post directly from the app.

For collectors, the practical change is the shorter path between discovering a card and deciding what to do with it. A buyback removes the work of finding a buyer, while delivery lets users bring the collectible into their own collection.

## A Separate Product From OG.com’s Regulated Markets

OG.com says Rips launched in the United States for users **18 and older**, subject to its terms and availability restrictions.

The company explicitly states that **OG.com Rips is not regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and does not offer CFTC-regulated products**. It is separate from the regulated exchange and clearinghouse services available through OG.com Markets.

NFL, NBA, MLB and Pokémon are third-party brands, and their owners are not parties to card sales through Rips.

The proposition is simple: open on your phone, see what you pulled, then choose cash or the card. The seven-day deadline makes that last step essential.
