Everything you need to know to organize and participate in tournaments on GetPaird.io.
Platform Overview
GetPaird.io is a tournament management platform for trading card games. It covers the full life of an event: player registration and payment, decklists, round generation and pairings, result reporting, live standings, brackets, side events, and an on-site shop.
Players follow their tournament in real time from any phone or computer — pairings, timer, standings, and results update live, with no app to install.
GetPaird.io supports three main tournament modes:
- Constructed — Standard 1-vs-1 matches where players bring their own decks.
- Booster Draft — Players draft cards from booster packs to build decks, then play matches within or across pods.
- Multiplayer — 3 to 5 players per table (pod), commonly used for games like Commander (Magic: The Gathering).
