Free Steam card: €20 of Steam Wallet credit without paying

What can you buy with a Steam card?

A Steam code tops up your Steam Wallet. That balance pays for PC games, downloadable content (DLC), software and items sold on Steam, including during seasonal sales when €20 of credit can cover several games.

How many Ops for the Steam €20 card?

In the shop, the Steam €20 card is listed at 2,720 Ops. Ops are worth more in the shop than when withdrawn (reference rates: €0.0082 per Ops in the shop, €0.0042 when withdrawn; each card's price may differ slightly from the reference rate). Withdrawing those 2,720 Ops as cash would give you about €11.42, while the card gives you €20.00 of purchases.

Official procedure and terms: Steam support on wallet codes.

Which countries does the card work in?

The code is issued in euros. Steam says funds are converted into your wallet currency when redeemed, but regional restrictions may apply. If your Steam Wallet uses a currency other than the euro, check compatibility before ordering.

Validity, limits and pitfalls

• Validity : any expiry date appears on the code you receive; redeem it as soon as it arrives to avoid any risk.
• Wallet code ≠ gifted game: the card adds balance; it does not send a specific game to a friend.
• Wallet currency: a euro code may be refused on some wallets in another currency.
• Never use a “code generator”: sites promising free Steam codes steal accounts.
• Delay: allow up to 2 weeks between ordering and receiving the code. Order early if the card is a gift.
