With physical Steam gift cards being phased out of shops, PaysafeCard has become the go-to way to add funds to your Steam Wallet without a card or bank account. In supported countries, you pay on Steam directly with a prepaid PaysafeCard code — no credit card, no bank details, just a 16-digit PIN. This guide explains how it works, why gamers choose it, and which option to pick.
Can you use PaysafeCard on Steam?
Yes, but in supported countries. Steam accepts PaysafeCard as a payment method in a range of markets, though not everywhere, so it is worth checking that your region is covered before you buy. Where it is supported, you simply choose PaysafeCard at the Steam checkout and enter your code.
To make this even easier, the PaysafeCard Players Pass is a co-branded prepaid voucher built for exactly this purpose: topping up your Steam Wallet, and paying at many other PaysafeCard partners too. It behaves like regular PaysafeCard credit, so everything in this guide applies to it.
And of course, you can also buy your Steam gift card online in your favorite shop. If a physical card is what you prefer, then you can opt for PaysafeCard.
It is sold per region, so choose the one that matches your account and currency:
United Kingdom: buy PaysafeCard
Australia: buy PaysafeCard
United Kingdom: buy Steam gift card
Australia: buy Steam gift card
Why gamers choose PaysafeCard
People reach for PaysafeCard to top up Steam for a few specific reasons:
No credit card or bank account needed: you pay with prepaid, cash-like credit — practical for anyone who prefers not to use, or does not have, a bank card.
More privacy: you don't share financial details with Steam or the shop; the payment only needs your code.
Built-in budget control: the voucher holds a fixed value, so you can only spend what you loaded — easy to cap your spending during a sale.
Useful beyond Steam: PaysafeCard credit works on Steam and at many other gaming and entertainment partners, so leftover balance is never stranded.
That last point is worth exploring — see where you can pay online with PaysafeCard.
Which PaysafeCard should you choose?
There are two practical choices to make: the amount, and whether you need a PaysafeCard account.
Pick the right value
Choose based on what you plan to spend: a smaller value for a single game or quick top-up, a larger one for a sale budget. Any credit you don't use stays available for next time, so you don't have to spend it all at once.
Match your region and currency
The country where you buy the voucher must match the region of your PaysafeCard account, and the currency should line up with your Steam account. Buy in the wrong region or currency and the code may not work, so check before you pay.
When you need a myPaysafe account
For smaller amounts you can pay with just the code. For larger amounts, or to combine codes and track your balance, PaysafeCard may ask you to create a free myPaysafe account and verify your identity. The exact thresholds depend on your region and change over time, so check the current limits rather than relying on a number quoted elsewhere.

How to redeem PaysafeCard on Steam
Redeeming is straightforward wherever Steam supports PaysafeCard:
Head to the Steam payment page, or add a game to your cart and go to checkout.
Choose PaysafeCard as your payment method.
Enter your 16-digit PIN and confirm.
Any remaining credit stays on your code or account for next time.

A quick word on fees, safety and validity
Prepaid PaysafeCard credit itself does not expire, but service and inactivity fees can apply if a balance sits unused for a long time; registering your code to a PaysafeCard account is the usual way to manage that. Because the exact figures and rules vary by region and can change, always check PaysafeCard's official fees and limits page for your country. We recommend reading our guide on Paysafecard fee's and limits.
On security, PaysafeCard's prepaid, bank-detail-free model is a big part of why it is a safer choice than a physical card — the full picture is in our guide on is PaysafeCard safe.
Note: Only ever enter your 16-digit PIN at the official Steam checkout or a site you trust, and never share it with anyone who contacts you unexpectedly — a PaysafeCard PIN is as good as cash, and a shared PIN is a spent PIN.
