Ultra Pro Toploaders are some of the most readily available and budget-friendly card protection options for collectors. Featuring no frills, these basic cases are composed of clear PVC. Due to their hard plastic composition, toploaders are intended to be used with Ultra Pro Card Sleeves. While not recommended for long-term storage or display of high-value cards, toploaders are a great way to protect your low and mid-value cards.

Ultra Pro Toploaders have also emerged as the preferred method for card shipments with collectors and card companies alike. The only thing that is generally added is a single piece of tape at the opening of the toploader, to prevent the card from coming out of the case while in transit.

Because they do not feature any UV protection and also contain open tops, they work best when used to store cards in a darkened space, like a box or safe. They also a great short-term protection option for high-value cards. This way, your valuable cards are still subject to basic projection until you able to obtain a One-Touch case or other premium storage option.

It is very important to get the correct toploader to fit the card in question, as a case that is too tight can seriously damage a card. Also, a case that is too big will allow the card to shift and risk damage.

The majority of these cases are the standard 3"x 4", which fit all 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" cards. There are specialty cases available as well.

In response to feedback from card dealers and breakers, Ultra Pro also offers bulk orders for several of the most common toploader sizes. Available from Ultra Pro distributors, the following toploaders can be ordered in quantities ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 toploaders per case.
