Europe's leading card grading service with custom art labels
About ACE
ACE Grading is Europe's dominant trading card grading service, founded in 2020 in London. ACE has rapidly grown to become the go-to grading option for European collectors who previously had to ship cards across the Atlantic to PSA or BGS, incurring high shipping costs, customs fees, and lengthy delays.
ACE's most distinctive feature is their custom art labels. Beyond standard grade labels, ACE offers limited-edition artist-designed labels that turn graded cards into unique display pieces. These art labels have become collectible in their own right, driving demand and creating a secondary market for specific label designs.
ACE uses a 1-10 grading scale with sub-grades for centering, corners, edges, and surface. The company has built a strong reputation for consistent grading standards, fast turnaround (particularly for European submissions), and a collector-friendly approach. ACE has expanded beyond the UK with submission centers across Europe, making professional card grading accessible to the continent's growing collector base.
