SUPPORT MANA FOIL
Keep the lights on. Keep the ads off.
Mana Foil is free, funded by the people who use it, and will never run ads.
The pledge
No ads. Ever.
Not "no ads for now." Not "no ads unless things get tight." Mana Foil will never run display ads, interstitials, or sponsored cards in your search results. It's written into our decision record as a permanent product promise, and every dollar pledged is the reason we can keep it.

The donor ladder
Five ways to keep Mana Foil independent
Every tier includes the perks before it.
Glimmer
$1/mo
your dollar backs the no-ads pledge, counted publicly; your handle on the Hall of Foil; supporter Discord.
Sheen
$5/moSilver
silver tag beside your handle + silver border on your deck boxes, site-wide; price tracking on your cards — alerts in the app, by Discord message, and by email when a price swings past your threshold (10% by default); the Foil membership free when it launches.
Etched
$10/moGold
animated gold tag, border, and foil ring on your avatar; higher limits on the Foil features that use real computing power.
Galaxy
$25/moGalaxy
the galaxy border and ring — the rarest look on the site, and the treatment your wall entry wears; the future-features channel; the votes on what we build next and how.
Serialized
$50/moSerial
five hundred numbered seats, pick yours for life; custom border color; a monthly gift Foil membership; the idea box for your feature ideas; quarterly roadmap call.
Patron perks are identity, cosmetics, and access — never card data, prices, rules, or tools. Nothing that shipped free ever moves behind a wall, and there are no early-access perks: features release to everyone at once.
The supporter ladder opens soon.
The honest part
How affiliate links work
Some of our buy links earn us a small commission when you order cards through them, at no extra cost to you. It's the only advertising-adjacent money we take, and we disclose it everywhere it applies.
The wall
The Hall of Foil
The Hall of Foil is the permanent wall of everyone who keeps this site running. Every tier belongs on it, from the first dollar up. The wall lives on a page of its own, showing the live supporter count and names across the wall.
