> Search and retrieve trading card news articles from Beckett.com across non-sport and vintage card categories, including checklists and set information. Browse posts by category or look up specific articles to stay updated on the latest card market trends and releases.

**Category:** Sports | **Website:** [beckett.com/](https://beckett.com/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/a8a7a2a8-3386-4e19-be30-d03816d1b597/beckett-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/a8a7a2a8-3386-4e19-be30-d03816d1b597/beckett-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/beckett/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents
