Seems like it became notorious for used keys in 2021, have they improved since?
How can it have 20 million active users if they are all scams?

What is state of G2A in 2023?
That's a lot of russians. From my experience cdkeys is better and they don't use keys f bought from stolen credit cards.
Why do I care if the key was bought with stolen credit cards?
if the rightful owner gets a refund you lose that game you morono
You don't if you're a sociopath.
When the owner reverts the charge you lose your account.
>they don't use keys f bought from stolen credit cards
if you truly believe that keys resellers do not obtain them through illegal methods i have bad news for you anon
I've used this site extensively in the past and i think i only had a 6 bucks CD key being reverted on me once.
6 out of what? 10? 100?
More than 50 at least
1 game that costs 6 dollarinos not 6 games
G2A will charge you a fee for having an account on their website. israelite shit. Eneba and CDkeys are the only ones I'll use now.
I've never had any problem with Kinguin. They gave me an already used key once and within 20 minutes I had my cash back. If game dev Black folk don't want their keys to end up stolen, then don't sell them, I want steam achievements and cheap games.
Is it safe to use credit card or do you have to use paypall? Do they steal your credit card?
You would be able to immediately reverse it if they used your credit card, not to mention you would know immediately.
how do you even get scammed using this site
I've never had a game removed after buying here since 2014
You buy from the cheapest seller with 10% user approval rating
Apropos of this, what are your guys’ cutoff rating for a seller? My friends told me to never go below 95% and I have stuck to that and gotten maybe a little over a dozen games without issue from G2A
people are too use to the guardrail experience of places like steam, xbox, and playstation. so when given a bit of agency its very easy for these cattle to fall victim to a scam. hopefully those that do fail can learn from their mistakes or better yet stay in there walled gardens least they hurt themselves
well the percent satisfaction rating is roughly your percent chance of getting scammed I guess so ya 95 is probably a good rule
so, you buy from Kinguin at 90% there is a 10% chance that the account you have +1000€ worth games gets deleted?
If you ever got one revoked, they just take the one game away and not the whole account, jackass
Only Valve knows what the cut-off is, but they won't delete your account for a first time offence. I buy a bunch of legit CD keys from Humble Bundle and Fanatical, plus occasionally buy games directly through Steam so I don't think they care unless it keeps happening on your account within a set time-frame.
Because you are buying from sellers who sell their shit on all those sites(cdkeys,eneba,kinguin,g2a) so they are trusted sellers. Only way you can get scammed on those sites is buying from some random ass homosexual seller with 10 sold keys or with shit user reviews/approvals.
Never had a problem with it, but ever you're trying to buy a game key make sure its a key and not a steam account.
you'll get your games, but it fricks over the devs. so just do it to AAA publishers.
how does people buying a game 'frick over the devs'
because when the people whose credit cards were stolen issue a chargeback, the devs have to pay the money back plus some stupid tax.
what if the keys were legitimate
alot of sites work by buying cheapo bulk physical batches from weird euro countries and reselling
thats a weak argument you have there bud, everywhere cc are accepted you risk chargeback.
>weak argument
it's been documented to put small indie studios under
g2a is great. I've been using it for as long as i can remember. ofcourse there will be risk involved with third party sellers. thats why you go with the highest rated reseller and if you really want buy the added insurance.
Last game i bought was wh40k gladius with all its dlc. ended up paying like $40 less than what steam was asking at the price. was it easier? no, steam has the better buying experience along with the ability to refund. that being said I had no intention of returning and didn't want to drop $100 for a game+dlc.
ive never had a game key get revoked once in almost 10 years of using this site, its just journo israelite fear mongering to get you to pay full price
Pirate everything
Use keysites for multiplayer games
Don't care about devs getting fricked over
I've bought a dozen keys over the years between g2a/g2play/kinguin and never had any issues.
Sold unwanted bundle keys there for a total of ~200€.
I believe during that time I got bundle games for free just from selling those unwanted keys.
Then there was some rule change that complicated selling keys and I stopped visiting the site alltogether.
Just pirate, you're not even supporting the devs
i've never had an issue with g2a or any other key reseller site outside of prices being moronic sometimes
I use both g2a and cdkeys and never have a problem with either
G2A's customer service is a bunch of fricker. They wanted me to file a police report for a 5 dollar game key.
kek they were just blowing smoke so that they can say they out the nonlegit sellers. they know no one will ever bother
I don't really trust G2A because the customer support sucks, but there are a lot of similar sites that I do use and honestly I've never had a key get revoked. Think I've bought like... 100+ games from CD Key resellers and the ONLY time I had an issue was when some homosexual mis-sold one of the EU3 sprite packs as Sid Meier's Alpha Centurai: Beyond Earth. I did eventually get my $2 back and got to keep the sprite pack though so not a big issue
Are you guys moronic or something? I thought it was common knowlege that the anti-g2a shit was coming from israelites in the AAA industry. I personally have bought over 30 keys from them and not one has been revoked from me.
Do you have an account?
homie you dont need to get their gay g2a premium account. All signing up for that does is get you a "cheaper" (not that much) price. You can just buy standard codes from them with a prepaid visa card/credit and its still cheaper than steam.
I just bought Nick All star brawl from them a couple days ago for like 3 dollars. Its good.
They advertise amazing savings but when you add the game to your cart and try to checkout suddenly its either like $2 less or even more expensive than just buying it off a legit site. And they have the gall to sneak in some insurance charge as well? Why even bother.
There's definitely certain games where you don't save anything at all, but then there's others where you can easily shave 10 dollars or more off the Steam price. American Truck Sim is a decent example: the game's 20 bucks on Steam, 3 on a key website, and the DLC is generally 5-10 bucks cheaper, which really adds up considering how much there is.
I just use gg.deals and use the cheapest site. I dont have any loyalty for any key sites.
its fine i use cdkeys more especially on woke indies games
