TrustScore out of 5, as Trustpilot shows it on each company’s page. Trustpilot says some of these companies invite their own customers to review, which tends to bring in happy customers; the share of one-star reviews shows the other side. Scores change; we check them monthly.

  • * SkinsMonkey: Trustpilot hides its TrustScore: it says the rating is unavailable due to a breach of its guidelines. Trustpilot also says the company displayed Trustpilot content in a misleading way.

Regulators: the blocklists and decisions of Denmark, Poland, Norway, Czechia, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, the Netherlands and Türkiye, as listed on each site’s code page with the source. Other countries weren’t checked. Licence “active in the register” means we found it in the regulator’s own register.

What “legit” can mean for a trading site

A legit skin marketplace names the company behind it, shows its fees before you trade, and pays sellers the way it says it does. Sites differ a lot here: some pay out to a bank account, some only to crypto, and some give site balance that can’t be cashed out at all. Each marketplace’s code page lists its fees and how sellers get paid.

How to check a trading site yourself

  • Find the company. A legal notice with a registered company and its country is a good sign; a site with no owner named is not.
  • Check how sellers get paid. Bank, card, crypto or only site balance, and the minimum payout.
  • Read the one-star reviews. They show held payouts and ID checks. Trustpilot hides the score of companies that break its guidelines.
  • Expect a 7-day wait. Since July 2025, Steam’s trade protection lets a trade be reversed for 7 days, so many marketplaces hold the item or your money until it ends.
  • Start small. Sell one cheap skin first and see the money arrive.

Trade scams to avoid

  • A sign-in page that isn’t Steam’s own (steamcommunity.com), or anyone asking for your Steam password, your Steam Guard codes or your Steam Web API key.
  • A trade offer from someone pretending to be the site’s bot: check the offer in Steam itself before you accept.
  • Prices far above the market for your skins: usually a lure.

How each one pays sellers, side by side: where to sell CS2 skins for real money. All marketplaces with their fees: CS2 skin marketplaces.
