Steam is a popular platform that millions of people use every day. Many famous publishers strive to put their games here to attract more players.
But in order to purchase products, you must have the right amount on the balance sheet. And so inveterate gamers have one very important question.
How to put money on "Steam"?
The answer to it is more than simple. This platform offers several options to choose from:
- with a bank card;
- through an ATM;
- Webmoney;
- "Yandex money";
- in terminals;
- through a QIWI wallet;
- Paypal
These are the main ways to put money on Steam. Perhaps others will appear in the future, but so far these are enough in full.
What is Steam?
In "Steam", people purchase games, store them on their account, download to computers and run using a special program. There is a chat room for communication, various interest groups, achievements, and even a trading platform for players who want to sell any game items.
In general, this is a real social network of gamers, covering almost all countries of the world.
It must be remembered that Steam is just a mobile platform, which means you won’t be able to pay in cash for games.
We replenish the account with electronic money
The most popular option for putting money on Steam is electronic finance. To put money into your account via Webmoney or Yandex.Money, you first need to create a virtual wallet and replenish it.
If you don’t have it yet, then it’s better to immediately replenish the balance on Steam from a bank card or through a terminal.
However, if you have finances on electronic wallets, then this is a very convenient way to pay for your purchase.
So, we go into the program and select Webmoney or Yandex.Money as the payment method. We put a tick in the item "I agree to the processing of data" and click "Go to payment".
After that, the payment system will transfer you to the electronic money website, where it will be necessary to confirm the payment by entering the data and password. Then you can return to your Steam profile again and check the balance.
This is a very simple way, not taking much time.
How to put money on Steam through QIWI
This is also a fairly popular method of replenishing an account in Steam among players. Essentially the same online wallet, only with advanced functionality.
To transfer money to "Steam" from the QIWI wallet, you need to log into your wallet through the website or a special program. There you need to select "Steam" in the search for what you want to pay, and enter your login ID.
It must be remembered that simultaneous payment is possible only for an amount not exceeding 15,000 rubles, but not less than 1 ruble.
By the way, this way you can replenish absolutely any wallet, not necessarily your own. You can give someone a gift by transferring a certain amount of money for the game, indicating something in the comments.
Be sure to check the correctness of the entered data and the amount of payment. Click "Pay" and you can go shopping in "Steam"!
We replenish the account through an ATM
If you have a bank card, you know the answer to the question of how to deposit money to Steam through an ATM.
In all terminals and machines, an option has long appeared that allows you to transfer real money to virtual wallets and gaming platforms. And "Steam" was no exception.
Just insert your card into an ATM, dial a PIN code and in the “Other” field find “Pay with Steam.” If the terminal does not support payment for gaming platforms, you can first put money into one of the electronic wallets or QIWI, and then transfer to Steam.
And it’s better to immediately pay Steam with a credit card through the payment system of the program itself.The transfer is not much different from the one discussed above with Webmoney.
The only difference is that at 4221o in the field "Payment" you need to select "Bank card", and then enter your data: card number, code, name and surname. And then confirm the payment using SMS.
We put money through the payment terminal
Paying Steam in this way is not as convenient as electronic money. Yes, you can use cash, but the commission in different places is quite high, money can be credited to the account only three days later. Alas, it is. Instructions on how to deposit money to Steam through the terminal are not very different from the situation with an ATM. Only a card is not needed.
Steam is the most popular platform among its kind and is only gaining fame every year. So we considered options for how to put money on Steam. They all have their advantages, and you yourself can choose a method to your liking.
