For parents
Everything parents ask before their kids start swapping. Still wondering about something? Your kids can start their binder for free while you look around.
Yes. Kids only swap inside circles their parents approve, other kids only see a nickname, there is no chat, and every swap happens face to face at a public place the families pick together. By default a parent approves every trade and gift before any card moves.
Only families in their Pods: trusted circles you approve. Pod 1 is family and friends; Pod 2 is a team, school or league. There is no way to find or contact strangers.
A hockey nickname and the cards they could swap. Never a real name, school, address or contact details.
You choose. Approval is on by default, so trades and gifts wait for your OK before any card moves. You can turn it off to let your kids trade on their own inside their Pods, and you still see every swap.
In real life. The app finds the match, the families agree on a bright, busy public spot to meet, and the kids swap the cards there. Once both sides confirm, both binders update.
No. Kids sign in with a username and password. We never ask kids for an email, a last name or where they live.
No. There is no chat or direct messaging. Kids can share short one-way updates with their Pod, without links or contact details, and parents can remove any of them.
No, never. Cards are only swapped or given, and families never pay each other. BinderBench shows no card prices.
Young hockey card collectors. It is simple enough for a 7-year-old, and a parent runs the family account.
Yes. A team, school or league can be a Pod 2 circle, so kids see their matches ahead of time and parents see every swap and meetup. Then everyone brings their doubles on the day.
