Terms of Service

1. Accounts and wallets

You can sign in with an email and password or with a Solana wallet signature. You must be old enough to form a binding contract where you live, and at least 18 to open mystery packs.

Your wallet and its private keys are yours. Idolca never asks for your seed phrase, cannot reverse transactions you sign, and cannot recover a lost wallet. Email accounts can add and list cards without a wallet; paying, bidding and holding NFTs require a linked wallet.

2. Vault cards

A vault card is a physical photocard that Idolca has received, authenticated, photographed and stored. Each vault card has one Solana NFT in the Idolca Vault collection; whoever holds the NFT owns the physical card.

Idolca is responsible for vault cards while they are in our custody. If a vault card is lost or damaged before it ships to you, we compensate the holder at its fair market value.

3. Trading vault cards

Vault cards are listed and sold through Idolca's on-chain escrow program. The buyer's stablecoin payment and the NFT swap in a single transaction; a marketplace fee of 2.5% of the sale price goes to Idolca. Completed on-chain trades are final.

4. Redemption

Holders can redeem a vault card to have the physical card shipped. Redemption freezes the NFT and charges a shipping fee of 5 USD in the same transaction. When we ship, the NFT is burned and the card leaves the vault.

We ship by tracked international mail to the countries listed in the redemption form. If we cannot ship to the address you give, we cancel the redemption, unfreeze the NFT and refund the shipping fee. Risk passes to you when the carrier delivers the card.

5. Free listings and escrow

Free listings are cards that stay with the seller. Idolca does not inspect them; they are marked unverified, and the listing photos and description are the seller's responsibility.

Purchases of free listings go through Idolca escrow. The buyer's payment is held until the buyer confirms receipt. If the seller does not mark the order shipped within 7 days of payment, the order is refunded in full. If the buyer neither confirms nor reports a problem within 14 days of shipping, payment is released to the seller.

A buyer who reports a problem pauses the release; Idolca reviews the case and either refunds the buyer or releases payment to the seller. On release, the seller receives the price minus a 2.5% fee, and if the seller made the card an NFT, it moves to the buyer.

Idolca may mark a card as fake if it is reported or found to be counterfeit. A fake card is delisted, relabelled and frozen on-chain, and this cannot be undone.

6. Auctions

Sellers can sell a free listing or a vault card by auction instead of at a fixed price. The seller sets a starting bid of at least 10 USD, an optional reserve price that is not shown to bidders, and a duration of 1, 3, 5, 7 days. An auction can be cancelled only before the first bid.

Every bid is paid in full when it is placed and cannot be withdrawn. Bids on free listings are held by Idolca; bids on vault cards are locked in the on-chain escrow program. When you are outbid, or a bid arrives after the auction has ended, it is refunded in full to the wallet or address it was paid from. A bid placed in the last 5 minutes moves the end time to 5 minutes after that bid.

When the auction ends, the highest bid wins if it meets the reserve price. A won free-listing auction becomes an escrow purchase under the terms above. A won vault-card auction settles on-chain: the NFT moves to the winner and the seller receives the winning bid in the same transaction. Either way the seller pays a fee of 4% of the winning bid, and the winner pays only the bid. If no bid meets the reserve, the card stays with the seller and the highest bid is refunded.

7. Mystery packs

Every card in a pack's pool is a vault card owned by Idolca. Odds are the share of cards left in each tier and change as cards are pulled. Before a pack opens we publish a hash of a secret seed; each pull is derived from that seed and your payment signature, and we publish the seed when the pack ends or sells out so anyone can verify every pull.

Opened packs are non-refundable. If a pack runs out of cards after you pay, the packs we could not fill are refunded automatically.

Instant buyback pays 70% of the card's value shown in the pack. Packs are available only to users 18 and older and are not offered in some regions.

8. Prohibited conduct

Do not list counterfeit or stolen cards, misrepresent a card's condition, manipulate prices with your own accounts (including bidding on your own auctions), interfere with the service, or use Idolca to launder money or evade sanctions. We may suspend accounts that do.

9. Blockchain risks

Blockchain transactions are public and irreversible. Network congestion, wallet software and token contracts are outside Idolca's control. USDT, USDC and other stablecoins are issued by third parties, and their value is not guaranteed by Idolca.

10. Liability

Except for our custody obligation for vault cards, Idolca is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, Idolca is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the fees you paid us in the twelve months before it.

11. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes are announced on the site before they take effect. Shipping addresses are kept for 90 days after shipment, as described in the privacy policy.
