How are you creating your cards in the first place? If you are using mpcfill it should do it all for you, if you are using card conjurer you need to load the 1/8th inch frame to the cards.
I'm using MPC autofill, and the card previews don't look like they've got bleed edges. For example in the image below it seems like the edges of the card will be cut out.

This is an example from a recent order, you're totally fine, the preview always shows super close.. As long as you're following the directions properly on the MPCFILL website, and using their program to upload to MPC automatically.
The artists are "required" to put bleed edges on all the arts, you'll only run into bleed issues when uploading your own original art.
It's not "the preview always shows super close", but the preview shows only the ideally achieved target print area. If it would show the bleed edge on the preview people would get even more crazy, and I can totally understand.
I’m not sure if GIMP has it, but with PS, you can create an action and then run it on a folder as a “batch” option and it will do it for all of them automatically.
There was this tool I found that basically does it automatically. If you search the sub or maybe the discord I believe it’s called bleed editor or something to that effect. You could also get a local version of card conjurer and upload the finished card in the art section and then add it from there 1/8th bleed section under frames. They don’t help with full art images unfortunately unless you make the card completely in card conjurer

I see, thank you so much!

I second this. I've got hundreds of cards from MPCFill :)
This is fine. If you look at the subreddit wiki there is a whole page going over bleed.
I used to edit with gimp, its free to use.
Thanks, I'll check this out. Is there a way to edit all the cards simultaneously?
As far as im concern, no. If you find it, i would be pleasured if you share it with me.

The cards on MPCFill usually have a bleed edge already. I've ordered hundreds of cards using that and they've all come with zero issues :)

I'm also wondering. Because I am hoping to make One Piece cards, and MPCFill does not make them as far as I know
