WeCards glossary: the words collectors use
Collectors use a lot of short words when they trade WeWard cards. Here is what each one means.
- WeCard
- A digital trading card in the WeWard app. Some people call them WeWard cards or WeWards cards.
- Chapter
- A set of 9 cards with one theme, usually a place or an event. Finishing all 9 completes the chapter.
- Common
- Cards #1 to #3 of a chapter. The easiest to find.
- Rare
- Cards #4 to #6. About half as likely as a common.
- Super rare
- Cards #7 and #8. Much harder to find than commons and rares.
- Legendary
- Card #9, the holo card. The rarest card of every chapter.
- Holo
- The shiny card in the bottom right of a chapter, always the #9.
- Pack
- A set of cards you open in WeWard. Higher packs give a better chance of super rares and legendaries.
- Duplicate or spare
- An extra copy of a card you already have. Spares are what you trade and gift.
- Missing card
- A card you don't have yet in a chapter you are collecting.
- Extra copy
- A card you already have but want another of, for example to trade it again later.
- Wishlist
- The list of cards you want. In WeWard you heart cards; on SwapTrek it is your missing list.
- Vintage chapter
- A chapter that can no longer be earned by walking or in packs. Trading is the only way to finish it.
- Ephemeral chapter
- A limited-time chapter tied to an event or a season, like Halloween or Christmas.
- New chapter
- A chapter WeWard just released. Demand is high for the first weeks.
- Trade
- A swap of cards between two collectors, done in the WeWard exchange screen. WeWard allows 3 a day.
- Bundle
- Several cards in one trade. It uses only one of your daily trades.
- Gift
- A card you give for free. On SwapTrek, confirmed gifts count on the Top gifters board.
- Trade points
- SwapTrek's simple guide to value: common 1, rare 2, super rare 4, legendary 10, with extra for vintage and new chapters.
- Last card
- The card that finishes someone's chapter. Collectors often give a little extra for it.
