Steam wallet replenishment for users in Russia has become more complicated. It is now impossible to pay with Russian cards directly to buy games in Steam, so you have to use third-party services. Often they require actions in several stages, at each of which you have to pay a commission.
Steam payment methods in Russia
For example, for a long time gamers have been topping up Steam wallets with Qiwi. I had to transfer money to a wallet in this service, convert it to tenge, and then send it to my account. After the closure of Qiwi in Russia, this method also stopped working.
There remains such an option as replenishment with the help of third-party services. Their main disadvantage – high commission, which can exceed 10%. In addition, there is a conversion when depositing and the rate may not be favorable either. Such services do not always work automatically, and as a result, waiting for a transfer may take several hours. Choosing how to replenish your Steam wallet, you have to carefully study the reviews, so as not to lose your money.
How to replenish your wallet with skins?
If you have items in your inventory, such as skins for CS2, you can use an alternative solution – to sell them on an internal marketplace and use the proceeds to buy games. Funds from such transactions come to the wallet immediately.
Often replenishing the wallet with skins for CS2 is more profitable than using third-party services. For example, you can buy USP-S Purple DDPAT as «A little worn» for 1,242 rubles. On the official trading platform Steam, the sale of a similar skin starts from 1705 rubles and higher. Even if you take into account the commission that Steam takes from each sale (it is 15%), you will get about 1490 rubles. In practice, you may need to put the price a little lower to sell the skin faster, but you'll stay in the win-win either way. The only disadvantage of this method – is the additional time required. You have to wait until the skin will be removed from the restriction on the trade, and then sell it.
To get the maximum benefit from reselling skins and replenish your Steam wallet without delays, choose those items in the catalog, on which there is no hold, so that they immediately get into your inventory. Pay attention to the mark that indicates how much the price in our catalog is lower than the price on Steam. In some copies the difference reaches 30%.
Thus, having bought a skin on Lis-Skins.ru and sold it on the trading platform, you can get funds on Steam-wallet. These can then be used to purchase games. Use our service to replenish your wallet reliably and without unnecessary commissions.
