What users say about Trove
Average 4.7/5 across 1 source
Rating caution: 27 of the 50 most recent written App Store reviews were 1-star, well below the 4.7 average.
The 4.7 App Store average doesn't match the written reviews: of the 50 most recent, 27 were 1-star. Low-star reviews have risen each month since May 2026. They focus on pull value, withdrawals not received or blocked, SSN requests at cash-out or shipping, and unanswered support. Positive reviews mention fun Pack Battles and easy PSA Vault transfers. Trove has no Trustpilot profile.

Our take on Trove
Overview
Trove launched in 2026 with PSA-graded sports, Pokémon and One Piece cards held in the PSA Vault. Its buyback is unusual: 100% of fair market value if you decide within two minutes, 90% for the next 24 hours, then 80% after that. Each pack shows value-band odds. On the $25 Football Starter pack, the midpoints of its published bands work out to roughly $23 of average value, about 93% (our estimate, not a Trove figure).
Trove advertises “provably fair” services but publishes no algorithm to check, so the claim earns only partial credit. Recent App Store reviews increasingly report withdrawal problems.
How we scored it
- Fairness 3.0: provably fair claimed but undocumented (1), value-band odds (1.5), stability default (0.5).
- Payouts 3.3: “instant” claimed, but repeated reports of blocked withdrawals and a multi-step shipping process.
- Value 8.0: 90% buyback within 24 hours (100% within 2 minutes), declining to 80%.
- Experience 5.0: web and iOS only, no Android app; written reviews far below the star average; no responsible-play tools found.
- Support 3.5: recurring reports of unanswered support.
