What we're looking for
- Physical retail shops (not online-only).
- Shops where trading cards are a primary part of the business.
- Currently open and operating in the U.S.
What to send, and what happens next
Four fields make a suggestion usable: the shop's name, its street address, the city and the state. A phone number and a website are optional, but they make a suggestion much quicker to check, so include them if you have them. The specialty boxes decide which specialty pages the shop will be tagged on — tick only what you know the shop deals in, and if you are unsure, leave them blank and say so in the notes. The notes field is also the place for anything that helps us find the shop: a suite number, a cross street, a name it trades under.
A suggestion goes into a review queue. Nothing is published automatically: each one is checked against the criteria in the box above before it is added, and if something does not match we write to the email address you gave. Once a shop is added it gets its own listing page and appears on its city and state pages like every other shop. Where it sits in any ranked list depends only on its public Google rating and review count, never on who suggested it. Listing is free, there is no paid placement anywhere on the site, and owners are welcome to suggest their own shop.
This form is for shops that are missing. To correct a listing that is already here — a wrong address, changed hours, a new name or a shop that has closed — email admin@cardshophub.com with the link to the listing and what has changed, rather than submitting it again as a new shop.
