How To Add A Payment Method To Steam

Do you want to buy games on Steam directly with money from your bank cards? Or do you want to pay for subscriptions on the app easily? Either way, you can connect a payment method to your Steam account. Follow our guide, and we’ll teach you how to do it.

In Steam, you can add funds manually to add credits to your wallet. You can use these funds to purchase games and other items on your account.

However, adding funds repeatedly can take time, especially if you need to confirm every purchase. Thankfully, you can connect a payment method to your Steam account to pay for purchases directly from your cards.

You can also use the payment method to cover monthly or yearly subscriptions you have on Steam.

Here’s our guide about adding a payment method to your Steam account.
