Live standings you can open up to see exactly why a player ranks where they do.

Store leagues

Turn weekly events into season-long store leagues with their own standings.

TopCut leagues, leaderboards and rankings are independent community standings — separate from any official ranking or championship-point system.

Awards & progression

Badges, honours, XP and a trophy cabinet make every event part of a player's story.

Badges, honours and awards are TopCut community recognition, not official Pokémon achievements or championship points.

A public career page that follows each player between stores.

Staff & trust

Staff roles and a clean record.

Add organisers and judges with scoped access and a full audit trail.

Add organisers and judges to your store with role-based access.

Role-based access

Players, organisers, judges and admins each see what's scoped to them.

Audit log

A timestamped, attributable record of the changes that matter.

Penalty tracking

Record penalties from caution to DQ with reason codes — standings react immediately.

TopCut records calls, penalties and repairs for your event. It is not official rulings software — official rules, rulings and tournament policy remain with event staff and the rights-holder.

Common questions

Questions players ask first.

Independent platform

TopCut is an independent community platform. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by The Pokémon Company International or Nintendo. TopCut is not a source of official rulings, policy or card legality — for sanctioned events, follow the official rules and tools where they're required.
