About Portal (POR)
Portal is a Magic: The Gathering starter/beginner set released on 1 May 1997 (30 years ago) with 244 cards in the set, using the set code POR. An entry-level release designed to teach the game with straightforward cards. On this page you can browse every Portal product we track - booster packs, booster boxes and preconstructed decks - and jump straight into the full Portal card list with daily updated prices.
Opening Portal boosters and booster boxes
A sealed Portal booster box is the cheapest way to open POR cards in bulk, while collector boosters concentrate the foil and extended-art treatments. Compare the sealed prices above before you buy: box prices move with the value of the set's rares, so a set with expensive mythics usually has expensive boxes too.
Portal card prices and how we track them
Every POR single on Magicmark.io carries a market price in EUR and USD, a price trend, and 1-day, 7-day and 30-day averages, rebuilt daily from Cardmarket "from" prices plus other marketplaces. That means the Portal price you see is what a near-mint copy actually sells for today, not the value it had at release in 1997. Foils, etched foils and special treatments are priced separately, so you never compare a non-foil POR rare to its foil version by accident.
Looking for a specific Portal printing? Use the Portal card database to filter POR singles by rarity, colour, mana value, foil treatment, language and price, browse Portal booster boxes and Portal boosters, compare it with the other Magic expansions, or scan a card with the MTG card scanner to identify the exact Portal printing you are holding and see what it is worth in 2026.
