Deck of Cards — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is Deck of Cards free to use?

Deck of Cards is listed in our free catalogue and required no credential when we called it. It needs no authentication at all, so you can send a request without signing up. Free tiers can still carry rate limits or non-commercial terms, so check the provider's own terms before shipping.

Does Deck of Cards need an API key?

No. We called Deck of Cards on 2026-09-18 with no key, no token and no Authorization header, and it responded. That is what puts it in our no-key collection.

Can I call Deck of Cards from browser JavaScript?

Yes. Deck of Cards returned CORS headers when we checked it, so a browser will let your page read the response. You can fetch it directly from client-side JavaScript with no proxy and no backend.

Is Deck of Cards still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached Deck of Cards and recorded a 33% reliability score with a median response time of 1767 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is Deck of Cards available over HTTPS?

Yes. Deck of Cards serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
