Active Interest Media, which in 2019 purchased the bulk of Krause Publications (including Numismatic News and other periodicals but not the printed Standard Catalogs) has teamed up with NGC and PMG to make pricing data available online.

Numismatic Guaranty Corporation® (NGC®) and Paper Money Guaranty® (PMG®) have entered into a license agreement with Active Interest Media. The Standard Catalog of World Coins and the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money license will support the popular NGC World Coin Price Guide and PMG World Paper Money Price Guide .
Active Interest Media is one of the world's leading enthusiast media companies, with a presence in 85 countries. They provide millions of readers, fans and attendees with consumer and trade events, websites and magazines, as well as films and TV shows.
The World Price Guides were created with and independently compiled by Active Interest Media's NumisMaster, an online pricing and information catalog offered by Active Interest Media. The guides are the most comprehensive online valuation guides available and are free to NGC, PMG and NumisMaster members.
The World Price Guides have long been useful resources for collectors and dealers to assess coin and paper money fair market values. This helps consumers avoid overpaying, underselling or underinsuring their collectibles.
"We are thrilled to work more closely with Active Interest Media to better serve the collectibles community," said Steven R. Eichenbaum, CEO of NGC, NCS, and PMG. "Our price guides provide essential information for collectors and dealers as the industry becomes even more oriented toward online transactions."

Penguin Random House acquired the printed book titles, but nothing has been heard from them about new editions of the Standard Catalog series. The only releases since the sale were of editions already in the publication pipeline.
