Abaut us

Arkezon was born from a shared passion — a passion for collecting, and above all, for the Trading Card Game world.
The two founders, long-time friends and collectors, decided to turn that passion into something greater: a company that would merge art and grading into one vision.

It all began in 2018, when one of the founders, almost as a joke, applied for a grader position at one of the largest grading companies in the world, based in the United States.
By chance — or perhaps destiny — he was called for an interview, hired, and relocated overseas.
He spent the following year working as a professional grader, gaining hands-on experience in the heart of the global grading industry.
When the pandemic struck, he continued his work remotely, further perfecting his technical skills and understanding of the grading process.

In 2023, after returning to the United Kingdom, he decided to start his own grading company together with his best friend.
That’s how Arkezon was born.

The Meaning Behind the Name

The name Arkezon combines two ideas:
“Arke”, from ancient Greek (ἀρχή), meaning the one who will conquer "the world",
and “Zon”, a small tribute to Amazon — a company that started in a small office and grew to be recognized worldwide.

This vision is also represented in the Arkezon logo, which features a globe inside: symbolizing ambition, growth, and a global perspective.

Our Philosophy

Arkezon was founded with a simple yet powerful mission: to unite art and collecting.
We believe every card tells its own story and deserves to be celebrated with a design that enhances its uniqueness.
For this reason, every Arkezon label is fully custom and free of charge — because collecting isn’t only about value, it’s about passion.
You don’t need a high-value card to have something worth treasuring.

A Journey of Growth

The first years were not easy.
The UK market hosts around 12–18 different grading companies, making visibility and trust a true challenge.
Arkezon fought to stand out by focusing on aesthetics, quality, and innovation.

Today, Arkezon is recognized as the only grading company in the world to introduce a curved-edge slab: the Arkezon Edge Pro.
A groundbreaking design with premium materials and a crystal-clear finish that you can both see and feel.
A slab created not just to protect your card — but to elevate it.

Free Tools for Collectors

Arkezon is more than a grading company — it’s an ecosystem built for collectors.
We offer free tools to make the grading process more transparent and interactive, including:

• The Centering Tool, which helps measure a card’s centering with precision.

• The Virtual Grading Tool, which lets users simulate the grading process directly online.

Unlike many competitors, Arkezon never charges extra based on the value of a card.
Every collector deserves the same level of care, passion, and respect — regardless of price.

Innovation in Every Detail: The Arkezon Cleaning Spray

From our dedication to innovation came the Arkezon Cleaning Spray — a unique product designed specifically for safe card cleaning and preparation before grading.
Its anti-static, alcohol-free formula gently removes dust and micro-particles without affecting the surface or color of the card.
The result is a clean, smooth finish that enhances clarity and presentation.
It’s a small touch that makes a big difference.

Conclusion

Arkezon is more than just a grading company — it’s a vision.
Born from passion, friendship, and experience, Arkezon aims to redefine how collectors experience and value their cards.
With innovation, precision, and artistic vision at its core, the company continues to grow day by day — with one clear goal:
to celebrate the art of collecting and make it accessible to everyone.
