About

What SteamGate is and how it works.

What is SteamGate?

A subscription to a catalog of Steam games: thousands of titles without buying each one. Access to a game opens on its page.

How is this different from buying a game on Steam?

A purchased game is yours forever, with achievements and online play. The subscription opens the whole catalog while it's active and is meant for single-player. In return, for the price of one AAA game you get access to hundreds.

Which platforms does it work on?

Compatibility depends on the game, its system requirements and launch method. Check the game page before paying. Having Steam on macOS, Linux or Steam Deck does not by itself confirm that a particular game will work on that device.

How many games are in the library?

Several thousand titles: AAA hits from Rockstar, Ubisoft, EA, Bethesda, Square Enix, indie favorites, and classics. Full list lives in the website Catalog. The library is updated regularly.

Subscription & payment

Pricing, terms, payment methods, refunds, promo codes.

How much does the subscription cost?

Current prices and the final amount for your payment method are shown on the Subscription page.

Which subscription terms are available?

Current subscription terms are listed on the Subscription page.

Can I extend an existing subscription?

Yes. If your subscription is still active, a new payment stacks on top of the remaining time. Buy whenever it's convenient — no day is lost.

What happens after my subscription ends?

Game access closes; your dashboard and history are kept. Buy a new subscription whenever you're ready.

Which payment methods are supported?

Available methods depend on your region. Checkout shows the supported payment methods, any applicable fee and the final amount before payment.

Do you accept cryptocurrency?

Checkout supports TON and USDT on the TRON network (TRC20). After selecting a plan, the site shows the network, address, exact amount and payment expiry. Use the specified network and payment details. The subscription activates after the transfer is confirmed.

Can I get a refund?

Yes — before you first open access to a game, in full minus actual processing fees. Once you've opened access to a game at least once, the service is considered rendered and refunds are no longer available. See § 8 of the public offer for details.

How do I use a promo code?

Codes for subscription days or requests go into the code activation block in your dashboard on the website — enter the code from a campaign or from our manager and the subscription extends automatically. A discount promo code is entered at checkout under 'Have a promo code?'.

Game access

Opening games, limits, publisher launchers.

Can I play online or with friends?

No. The subscription is meant for single-player: online modes, online co-op and PvP are not available. If you want to play online with friends, buy that game for yourself.

How do I get access to a game?

Subscribe, pick a game and press 'Get access' on its page — then follow the instructions.

How often can I open games?

Once every 30 minutes: after you open a game, you can open the next one in half an hour. Try sooner and you'll see a limit message.

Game won't launch?

Repeat the steps from the instructions on the game's page or contact support.

Do I need a publisher launcher (Rockstar, Ubisoft, EA)?

Some games run through the publisher's launcher — this is stated on the game's page.

Where do I check subscription status?

In your dashboard on the website, in the Subscription section.

Can I change a game's language?

Yes — same as in regular Steam: right-click the game → Properties → Language.

Rules

Terms of use.

Are there rules of use?

Yes, they're set out in the public offer. Breaking them ends your access with no refund.

Saves & progress

Saves and achievements.

Are my saves preserved?

Yes — saves are stored on your computer. How to keep your progress safe is explained in the instructions on the game's page.

Are achievements preserved?

They don't show up in your Steam profile. If 'forever' achievements matter, buy the game personally.

Tech & support

Glitches, languages, contact.

The site doesn't respond / access opens slowly

Check: 1) your internet; 2) subscription is active; 3) you haven't hit the request limit. Opening access sometimes takes 10–20 seconds — that's normal. If nothing helps, contact support.

How do I change the UI language?

Use the language switcher in the site header (RU / EN / KR). Russian, English, Korean supported.

Which games have I opened?

In your dashboard on the website, in the history section — all opened games with dates.

How do I contact support?

The fastest way is the site chat or our Telegram manager (t.me/Steam_GateBot): quick answers and general advice, especially from 10:00 to 22:00 MSK. Refunds, technical issues and suggestions go through a support request in your dashboard on the website — we usually reply within 5 to 48 hours. Email: support@steamgate.online.

Where should I write about a serious issue?

The site chat and our Telegram manager (t.me/Steam_GateBot) are for quick answers and general advice. For serious issues — refunds, technical problems, suggestions — create a support request in your dashboard on the website: it won't get lost, the whole conversation is kept in one place, and you'll get a notification when support replies. A reply takes 5 to 48 hours on average, depending on how busy our team is, but we always try to answer as soon as we can.
