# Packflip Points

Packflip Points are platform credits earned by selling cards back to Packflip through the **Buyback** feature. They can be used directly toward pack purchases on the platform.

{% hint style="info" %}
The buyback rate varies by card and is determined at the time of the transaction.

<summary>How to use Points</summary>

Points can be used at checkout to pay for any pack purchase. **1 Point = $0.01**, so 500 Points covers a $5 pack in full.

Apply your Points at the Order Summary step before confirming your purchase.
