Best sites to sell CS2 skins for real money

Where's the best place to sell CS2 skins? It depends on what you want: the highest price, a sale right now, or money in PayPal, crypto or your bank. We compared 12 sites, ours included, on fees, payouts and when the money is yours.

We're SkinCashier, one of the sites on this list. How we compared

How we compared

We're SkinCashier, one of the sites on this list, so we're not neutral. That's why we used the same checks for every site, put ourselves only in the picks where the facts fit, and point out where other sites do better.

Every fact comes from the sites' own fee pages, help centers and terms, and from Steam's help pages. We checked them on 20 October 2026 and check them again every quarter. We don't compare item prices: they change all the time, and a site that buys your skins, ours included, pays less than a buyer on a marketplace would.

  • Who buys your skins

    Another user on a marketplace, the site itself, or a trade bot.

  • What it costs

    The fee on the sale and the fee to withdraw.

  • How you cash out

    PayPal, crypto, a bank transfer, or not at all.

  • When the money is yours

    Including Steam's 7-day trade protection on CS2 items.

  • ID checks

    What a site asks for before you can withdraw.

  • Games

    CS2 only, or Rust, Dota 2 and TF2 too.

The best place to sell CS2 skins, by what you need

There's no single best site for everyone. The best way to sell CS2 skins depends on what you want: the highest price, a sale right now, or a certain payout method.

  • Best for the highest price, if you can wait

    On a marketplace you set the price and another user pays it, so you can get close to the market price. CSFloat charges a 2% sale fee and takes CS2 items only. Skinport charges 8% and takes all four games.

    You wait for a buyer, and neither pays out to PayPal.

  • Best for selling right away, without listing

    Both buy your items themselves, so there's no listing and no waiting for a buyer, and both take CS2, Rust, Dota 2 and TF2 items. CS.Deals pays to a bank or crypto with a 0% Instant Sell fee. SkinCashier pays to PayPal or crypto.

    The trade-off is the price. A site that buys your skins pays less than a marketplace buyer.

  • Best for PayPal payouts

    SkinCashier pays to PayPal for items from all four games and shows the fee before you confirm. DMarket offers PayPal, depending on your country, if you'd rather list at your own price and wait.

    CS.Money, Skinflow and Skinswap pay to PayPal too, with the limits listed in their sections.

  • Best for crypto payouts, stablecoins included

    Skinflow pays in BTC, ETH, LTC, SOL, USDC or USDT and lists its fees, such as $0.25 for ETH and $0.10 for LTC. CS.Deals pays in BTC, ETH, LTC, SOL or USDC, minus the network fee.

    SkinCashier pays in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin, but not in stablecoins.

  • Best for a bank transfer

    Skinport pays only by bank transfer (SEPA, ACH and similar), with no payout fee. SkinBaron's SEPA withdrawals are free too, and you can withdraw the day after the sale.

    Both are marketplaces, so you wait for a buyer first.

  • Best for very expensive items

    SkinBaron's fee drops to 2% on CS2 items worth €999 or more. CSFloat charges 2% on every sale and suits CS2 items where float and pattern matter.

    The Steam Market can't take them. One listing can't go above about $1,800.

  • Best for staying inside Steam

    If you'll spend the money on Steam games and items anyway, the Steam Market is fine. Valve runs it and Market sales are final, but you get Wallet funds that can't be withdrawn.

  • Best for trading skins for skins

    Both run trade bots, so you can swap your skins for other skins. CS.Money takes CS2 items only. Tradeit.gg takes CS2, Rust and TF2.

    Loot.Farm is a trade bot too, but its balance can't be withdrawn as money.

  • Best for sellers in mainland China

    BUFF163's fees are low: 1.5% to sell and 1% to withdraw. But payouts go only to Alipay or a bank card in your verified real name.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers based on the sites' own pages and terms, checked on 20 October 2026.

Fees and rules change. If something here is out of date, write to [email protected].

It depends on what matters more to you. For the highest price, list your skins on a marketplace such as CSFloat or Skinport and wait for a buyer. To sell right away, use a site that buys skins itself, such as SkinCashier or CS.Deals, and accept a lower price. The Steam Market pays only in Steam Wallet funds, which can't be withdrawn.

Of the sites in this list, SkinCashier, DMarket, CS.Money, Skinflow and Skinswap pay to PayPal. DMarket and CS.Money offer it depending on your country, and CS.Money asks for an ID and a face video first. Skinflow charges $3.75 + 2% from $20, Skinswap about $0.25. Skinport, CSFloat, SkinBaron, CS.Deals, Tradeit.gg and BUFF163 don't pay to PayPal.

Yes. SkinCashier pays in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. CS.Deals, Skinflow, Tradeit.gg and Skinswap pay in crypto too, and all four also offer a stablecoin such as USDT or USDC. CSFloat pays in USDC on Polygon in some regions.

Of the marketplaces in this list, BUFF163 has the lowest standard sale fee, 1.5% plus 1% to withdraw, but it pays only to Alipay or a bank card in your verified real name. CSFloat and the CS.Deals marketplace charge 2%, and DMarket 2% on CS2 items, up to 10% on cheap or slow-selling ones. CSFloat adds a withdrawal fee of 0.5 to 2.5%. Instant-sell sites, SkinCashier included, often charge no selling commission, but their margin is in the offer, so compare what you'd actually receive.

It can be, if you check a few things first. Every active site in this list names the company behind it, so look it up. Make sure the payout method works in your country and that the balance can be withdrawn at all: Loot.Farm's can't. Sign in only through Steam's own login page and never share your Steam API key. And don't leave a big balance on any site: when BitSkins shut down in 2026, leftover balances had to be recovered manually through its support.

Because the Steam Market pays in Steam Wallet funds. Valve says Wallet funds can't be withdrawn or transferred to a bank or a third-party account, and its subscriber agreement says they have no cash value. To get real money, sell on a site that pays out.

Because of Steam's trade protection. For 7 days after a CS2 trade, the person who sent the items can reverse it and get them back, so most sites in this list release the money for CS2 items only after those 7 days. Steam says CS2 is the only game with trade protection for now, and that CS2 items aren't subject to trade holds. On SkinCashier, Rust, Dota 2 and TF2 items are paid right after the trade.
