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
Back the permanent no-ads pledge. Glimmer includes access to the private supporter Discord, a Glimmer role, and a permanent entry in the Hall of Foil. The Hall shows the live total supporter count across every tier.
0 Forge Master builds/month
Sheen
$5/moSilver
Everything in Glimmer, plus a silver supporter tag, silver deck border and silver avatar ring across your account and deck surfaces. Sheen also unlocks the Komorebi border and overlay, price tracking for up to 200 exact printings with history and custom alerts, and 3 Forge Master builds each month. Alerts always arrive in-app, with optional Discord delivery. Your future Foil membership is included while you pledge.
3 Forge Master builds/month
Etched
$10/moGold
Everything in Sheen, plus a gold supporter tag, animated gold deck border and avatar ring, and a gold-striation deck overlay. Etched also unlocks the Seigaiha Tide and Gloomspire border and overlay choices, plus 6 Forge Master builds each month. Motion follows your reduced-motion preference and can also be held still from Account settings.
6 Forge Master builds/month
Galaxy
$25/moGalaxy
Everything in Etched, plus the Galaxy supporter tag, animated deep-space deck border and avatar ring, a Galaxy starfield overlay, and the Galaxy treatment on your permanent Hall of Foil entry. Galaxy also adds Consecrated Ground, Cinderforge, Empyrean, and Witchfire border and overlay choices, plus 15 Forge Master builds each month. The future-features channel and supporter votes also begin here.
15 Forge Master builds/month
Serialized
$50/moSerial
Everything in Galaxy, plus one of 500 numbered identities. Claim an available number from Account settings; it remains yours while your membership is active and is held exclusively for you for 90 days after a lapse before returning to the pool. Your Serialized identity appears across your account and decks through the Mana Foil spectrum treatment, #NNN/500 seat plaque, two-color signature hue, ring choice, premium overlays, and optional foil sheen. Includes 30 Forge Master builds each month and permanent Founding Patron recognition in the Hall of Foil. The monthly gift Foil membership begins after Foil launches.
30 Forge Master builds/month
A normal 100-card deck uses one Forge Master build. Larger Rulebreaker decks can use more than one from the monthly allowance.
See how the Forge Master worksMana Foil's core deck-building experience stays free: card search and current prices, decks, collection, scanner, the free Deck Forge, playtesting, import, export, and sharing. Supporters receive cosmetics, community access, and optional new services with ongoing operating costs, including price tracking and Forge Master. Nothing that already shipped free will ever move behind a paywall, and supporters never receive early product access.
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
Every tier earns a permanent Hall of Foil entry recognizing the support you gave, and the Hall shows the live total supporter count across all tiers. Serialized adds permanent Founding Patron recognition to that Hall entry. Membership benefits — including account cosmetics and a Serialized numbered identity — follow their own active-membership policies and are not made permanent by the Hall listing.
