This ensures safe, direct, and instant delivery to your Steam account.

You can always track trade status under the Orders menu.

How skins are delivered on Gameskinhub

Gameskinhub delivers skins via an official Steam trade offer sent to you by our automated trading bot. Nothing is downloaded to your PC, and you do not receive a “code” — the items arrive directly in your Steam inventory after you accept the trade.

1) Before you buy (required)

  1. Log in to Steam in your browser (recommended) so the process is faster.
  2. Add your Steam Trade URL to your Gameskinhub profile (this is required so our bot can send you a trade offer).
    • In Steam: Inventory → Trade Offers → Who can send me Trade Offers?
    • Copy your Trade URL and paste it into your Gameskinhub account settings.

Important
  • Your Steam inventory must be public (or at least visible for trading).
  • If your Steam account has a trade ban / trade lock / new account restrictions, delivery may not be possible until the restriction ends.

2) What happens after you pay

Once you complete the purchase on Gameskinhub:
  • Your order is created instantly.
  • Our system assigns your order to the correct Gameskinhub trading bot.
  • The bot prepares the exact skins you purchased for delivery.
  • The bot sends you a Steam trade offer to the Steam account you used to sign in.

    • 3) Where you receive the skins (Steam)

      You receive the delivery only inside Steam, as a trade offer.
      To find it:
      • Steam (web or app) → Inventory → Trade Offers → Incoming Offers
      You may also see a Steam notification for a new trade offer.

      4) How to verify the trade offer is correct (very important)

      Before accepting any trade:
      1. Open the incoming trade offer.
      2. Check that:
        • The items shown match what you purchased (name, wear/quality, quantity).
        • You are not giving any items in return (your side should be empty).
          • Confirm the sender is a Gameskinhub bot (the trade offer will come from our official bot account used for deliveries).
      If anything looks wrong — do not accept. Contact support and include your order ID.

      5) How you accept and confirm the trade

      1. Click Accept Trade Offer.
      2. Steam may require a confirmation in Steam Guard / Steam Mobile Authenticator.
        • Open the Steam mobile app → Confirmations → confirm the trade.
      After confirmation, the skins will appear in your Steam inventory.

      6) Delivery times

      In most cases delivery is fast (usually minutes). Delays can happen due to:
      • Steam trading/market outages or high load
      • Your account requiring Steam Guard confirmation
      • Missing/incorrect Trade URL
      • Inventory privacy settings
      • Trade holds/locks on your Steam account

      7) Most common delivery problems (and fixes)

      Problem: I don’t see a trade offer
      • Make sure you pasted the correct Trade URL in your profile.
      • Check Steam: Trade Offers → Incoming.
      • Check inventory privacy settings (set inventory to public).
      • Verify your Steam account is not trade restricted.
        • Problem: Trade offer shows a hold / delayed trade
          • This usually means Steam Guard / account security settings are causing a hold.
          • Enable Steam Guard and use the Steam Mobile Authenticator.
          Problem: I accepted, but items don’t appear
          • Refresh Steam inventory and restart Steam.
          • Check if the trade is still “pending” in Trade Offers history.

          8) Security reminders (protect your skins)

          • Gameskinhub delivery trades never ask for your password.
          • We will never ask you to send items to receive your purchase.
          • Always verify the trade details before confirming in Steam Guard.
