SkinCashier vs Skinswap

Skinswap buys items itself, runs a trade bot and lists other sellers' items on its market. SkinCashier only buys, for all four Steam games.

Why sellers look for a Skinswap alternative

Skinswap has many payout options. The limits are in the games it buys and in the payouts themselves.

  • CS2 and Rust only

    Skinswap doesn't buy Dota 2 or TF2 items, and CS2 and Rust balances are kept apart.

  • Payouts that can fail

    Its help centre says a payout can fail when Skinswap's own wallets lack funds, or because of PayPal limits or a provider decline.

  • Refunds to site balance

    Its help centre says refunds for reversed trades go to your Skinswap balance. To get that money out, you have to ask support for a withdrawal.

How fast you get paid

  1. Sign in with Steam

    Through Steam's own login page. Add your trade URL once and you're set.

  2. See your price

    Every item gets an offer straight away. No listing, no waiting for a buyer.

  3. Accept the trade

    Our bot sends the trade offer. You confirm it in the Steam app.

  4. Withdraw

    Pick PayPal or crypto. Payouts are sent automatically, not from a manual queue.

CS2 items: Steam lets the sender reverse a CS2 trade for 7 days (trade protection), on every site. We release the money as soon as that period ends. Rust, Dota 2 and TF2 items are paid right after the trade.

Is Skinswap legit?

Yes. Skinswap is a brand of DES Labs, LLC in the USA and has a 4.3 TrustScore from 2,370 reviews.

Its negative reviews are mostly about failed or cancelled trades, prices that changed during a deposit or trade, and slow support and ID checks. Skinwallet, which no longer operates, now sends its users to Skinswap.
