Collect and swap with Aurora Cards

Find the cards you need

Choose a collection in Cards. Search card names, token IDs or traits, then use All, Owned, Missing or Duplicates. Open a card to see its artwork, traits, available supply information and your quantity. More cards load as you scroll.

Distinct card types measure collecting progress; extra copies do not increase it. Progress describes the currently loaded view. Incomplete discovery, stale balances and unavailable information are labelled rather than guessed.

Offer and accept a swap

1. 1

   List an owned card

   When swap setup is ready, choose Available for swap and set the copies you are willing to exchange. Your cards stay in your wallet.

2. 2

   Review an offer

   Another holder chooses one card type from the same collection and blockchain, with a separate quantity. The offering wallet signs those exact terms. Each holder approves the swap contract separately.

3. 3

   Accept in your wallet

   The named accepting collector reviews the cards, quantities, current platform fee and creator royalty. Both card transfers and payments complete together, or they all revert. A failed blockchain transaction can still cost gas.

Continue an unfinished action

Use Continue a wallet action to check a saved transaction after returning to Cards. If the wallet result is uncertain, copy the transaction hash from wallet activity instead of sending the action again. Draft offers can be reviewed and signed later.

Cancelling a signed offer needs a wallet transaction. Rejecting an offer stops new quotes, but an already issued quote can remain usable until its short expiry. Changed balances, approvals or collection policies may invalidate an offer.

Bring your collection

Collectibles contracts automatically appear in Aurora Cards and their card layout stays enabled. Premium members, Aurora admins and registered Creators can optionally enable Collectible cards for an Editions collection, or choose Bring your collection for an external ERC-1155 address. The connected wallet must still be the collection’s verified owner or contract administrator; owning a card or having Aurora admin access does not let someone claim another person’s collection.

Your existing NFT contract, token IDs, balances and collection link stay intact. Browsing can open while swap setup is pending. The creator configures the flat royalty and confirms any supported transfer-policy setup. Some collections need several wallet confirmations or a separately reviewed integration.

Choose View setup steps to see what is missing and who can complete it. The collection owner or administrator sets the royalty, the collection or list owner grants transfer permission, and Aurora enrolls the collection. Only then does Approve my cards for swaps become available. A fee waiver does not finish setup.

Disabling swaps on chain invalidates earlier offers permanently. Collectibles contracts keep their card presentation when swaps are disabled. For other collections, turning off the card presentation requires that disable first; removing a button alone does not revoke signed offers.

Deploy and activate swap contracts

Administrators open Admin → Cards → Swap contracts, select a network and administrator, then review deployment in their wallet. Aurora checks the confirmed contract and saves its address automatically. An unfinished deployment can be resumed or checked using its transaction hash.

Activation is separate from deployment. Replacing a contract pauses new swap quotes for at least 15 minutes so old quotes can expire; return to finish activation at the displayed time. Collection owners then configure their USD royalty and transfer permission, Aurora enrolls each collection, and collectors approve the new operator. Existing cards and swap history are preserved.
