Which has the better buyback?

PackDraw wins on buyback: 90% cash vs 100% in crypto.

Courtyard: A stated 90% buyback is paid to a balance you can withdraw. Shown per product page. Courtyard's own promotions say 90% of fair market value; third parties report 90% for cards and 95% for watches. Paid as withdrawable USDC, with 7 days to accept. Note: as of 2026-10-04 the App Store and Google Play listings advertise 'instant buyback' without stating a percentage. Worked example: $100 × 0.90 = $90 on a card valued at $100, paid to a balance you can withdraw.

PackDraw: Cash-out is in crypto, with a stated 100% buyback. Per third-party reviews, pulls sell back at 100% of listed value as crypto. We couldn't confirm this on-site because of the geo-block. Worked example: $100 × 1.00 = $100 on a card valued at $100, paid in crypto.

PackDraw pays out in crypto. See every site that takes or pays crypto on our crypto page.

Which do users rate higher?

Courtyard wins on user ratings: 4.2★ (12.7K ratings, 3 sources) vs 3.3★ (466 ratings, 1 source).

Courtyard: 4.2★ average across 3 review sources. The picture is split. App-store ratings are strong. Trustpilot is mixed (52% 5-star, 23% 1-star), and Courtyard actively invites reviews there; one mid-September page showed a same-day burst of short 5-star reviews. Low-star reviews cluster around pulls worth less than the pack price, disputed fair-market valuations, and ID checks at the first withdrawal. Courtyard has an F rating from the BBB, with 17 complaints closed over three years.

PackDraw: 3.3★ average across 1 review source. Reviews are polarized: 61% 5-star and 31% 1-star. Many 5-star reviews name individual support agents and arrive in bursts, a pattern consistent with asking for reviews after support chats. Recent 1–2 star reviews mostly concern odds and house edge, with some withdrawal and ID-check complaints. The company replies to over half of negative reviews.
