Title: Steamloader Test
Post by: williamj2543 on February 09, 2014, 04:40:43 PM
Hey,
I play a lot of video games mainly on steam and I was wondering if you could get games with Bitcoin. Turns out there is actually a service that gives you a steam gift card for bitcoins. I just send out my payments for a 10$ gift card, and it was 0.017 BTC, which is about a dollar over the actual cost of 10$, but they have to charge a fee somewhere. So I just send my payment of Bitcoin, and they sent an email saying they got it, and I should wait 10-15 minutes. WAIT I just got an email saying I got the code. I will redeem it in steam and see if it works.

I know http://www.steambits.com/ (http://www.steambits.com/) is pretty good. Haven't tried Steamloader before, but I guess I'll give it a shot. The fact that you can buy gift cards instead of individual games is a huge plus to me.

Steambits has a history of problems. Try buying zeevex cards through gyft, where there is no fee and you even get extra rewards for using bitcoins. No waiting on confirmations either.

I don't like steambits because they don't have all the games, and you dont get to take part in steams awesome sales. Gyft has no use to me because they just have random restaurant gift cards, no good ones like paypal, amazon, and steam

Buy zeevex (http://zeevex.com) cards on gyft, then guy steam cards on zeevex. Quicker and much cheaper than steamloader.

Yes i'm sure, you get your gyft card as soon as you send your coins, and you get insane rewards. (3-5%). It takes another 30 whole seconds to get the steam card from zeevex.

No, there aren't fees and there are 3-5% rewards. You can't have rewards if you have fees lol
