Trade safety

How we protect you

Escrow: the seller is never paid before the item reaches the buyer.
Automatic refunds if the seller doesn't send the item within 12 hours.
Trade-reversal protection: Steam lets senders undo a trade for 7 days. Seller funds are held 8 days and we re-check the buyer's inventory before releasing them.
Every listing is verified against the seller's live Steam inventory, again when you buy, and refunded at once if it was sold elsewhere.
Trade URLs are checked to belong to the account that saved them.
Steam trade bans, account age and suspicious activity are checked continuously.
Card payments use 3-D Secure; withdrawals go only to identity-verified Stripe accounts.

Only sign in through steamcommunity.com. Check the address bar.
Never share your Steam API key, Steam Guard codes or password with anyone — we will never ask.
Before accepting a trade, check the other person's Steam name and SteamID match the order page.
Never accept an offer that asks you to give items as a buyer.
Ignore anyone contacting you about an order on Discord or Steam chat. All communication happens on the order page.
If you see a Steam API key you didn't create at steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey, revoke it immediately.
