Is allowed to create second Steam account on same E'mail adress?
Hi guys, as the title says i want to create second Steam Account. Reason is that i had enough luck and won an game on giveaway but i already have that game on this acc.

So here are my questions:
1) Is allowed to create new Account on same E-mail adress?

2) If i create new one on same adress will something happen to this (old) Acc?

3) Will i encounter any problems while logging in to that new account?

4) Will i be able to use same Steam Authenticator app with same phone number with same mobile device for new Account?

5) Will i be able to request Steam Support if i have two Account on one E-mail?

Well, those are all questions i have trouble with and i hope that someone will help me. If someone already did this please tell me does you had any problems or everything should be fine.

Thank in advance!!!

1. Yes, you can link as many Steam accounts to the same email as you want.
2. Nothing will happen, you can have as many accounts as you want.
3. Nope
4. Yes, that is possible
5. Yes, since your login details are different, the account who asked the question will get the answer.

1. Yes it is. I used to have my and my brother's account associated to the same email, no problem ever happened.

2. Nothing will happen to your old acc.

3. No, you will not, just use the correct username and password to log in any of your accounts.

4. Yes, you will. But keep in mind that the codes for the accounts will be different (you will need to switch between the accounts in the Steam Guard page on your cellphone)

5. Yes, you will.

Just keep in mind that your new account will be limited. Which means some resources will not be avaiable, unless you spend a minium of 5$ to unlock the account.

Thank you so much for answering on all of my questions guys!

But i have one more question. Not problem at all if u guys don't see this, u helped me a lot already!

1) What about Steam Account name. I know that i can's use same Account name, of course. But can i use same old Steam Account name with number 2 on end? Or that just doesn't make any sense and i should make completely new name? Sry for quite stupid questions but i when i make new Account i will use it for very long time, so i don't want to make any mistakes :D .

Thanks!

you can use whatever username you want, you are the only one that sees it anyway.
Many, many thanks. This really helped me. :steamhappy:

I just made a new steam account for my daughter, but on my email. But when I try to find my username from her account og vs non of the usernames shows, so we can`t add each other as friends. Any suggestions?

Copy down the profile URL and go there directly.

Just leave it dormant. That way if you change you mind an want to access it in the future you can. Nothing happens with the account if you stop using it.

At some point 5$ must be on your account, or spent in shop.

Any answers to this? I cannot access my 2nd account and would like to rid myself of it.

You will need to recover access to it and then follow the account deletion process within. Alternative you can attach it to an alternative email address however, either way you will need to be signed into it.
