CardMarket Pokemon Card API
Use market=EU when your workflow needs EUR pricing and CardMarket-specific source fields instead of US eBay or TCGPlayer data.
Endpoint
GET /cards?market=EU
curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
"https://api.poketrace.com/v1/cards?search=charizard&market=EU&limit=2"Returns EU cards with currency EUR, refs.cardmarketId, cardmarket AGGREGATED values, and cardmarket_unsold tiers by condition, grade, country, and language.
- EU/CardMarket data requires Pro or Scale.
- EU cards do not use US variant data in the same way as TCGPlayer-backed US cards.
- cardmarket_unsold values are asking prices from active listings, not completed-sale comps.
EU cards are separate records from US cards.
Price Trend and active listings are separate fields.
EU market access is gated on Pro and Scale.

}Two Sources, Different Meaning
Use cardmarket.AGGREGATED as the conservative baseline. Use cardmarket_unsold when you need current supply, country spread, language spread, or graded asking prices.
Country and Language
Country is based on seller origin. Language is nested under country when the listing has both dimensions; top-level language can appear in history rows that do not have seller country.
Do Not Mix Markets Blindly
US and EU cards are separate market records. Compare them only when your product explicitly explains currency, source, liquidity, and supply differences.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does PokeTrace expose CardMarket Pokemon prices?
Yes. Use market=EU on /cards or fetch an EU card by ID. Responses include cardmarket Price Trend values and cardmarket_unsold active listing summaries.
Can I filter CardMarket prices by country or language?
The endpoint does not take a country query filter, but EU response data can include country and nested language objects that your app can read directly.
