STEAM GAME SELLER - How to cashout outside USA?
Hi,

I´m starting to develope games with Unreal Engine 4 (Epic), I live outside USA and Unreal requires me to pay certain percentage of my sales in Steam, in other sites like youtube you can cashout directly to bank acount, so before starting my game crusade i would like to know after becoming a seller in Steam and pay steam´s fee for selling each game and after people star buying my games:

A) How do i receive or handle this money inside Steam?

B) How can i cashout outside USA? Fees? Wire transfer?

I already heard about some people cashing out through Paypal, but since i do not live in USA, cashing out by paypal it´s impossible, i already tried for other things, i can only cash out by wire transfer to bank account and maybe throught credit cards.

Is there an specific seller forum?

Thanks for all support and comments, since i´m a begginer on seling games.

Well i have never contacted steam either, never had a complain, so how please?

partner.steamgames.com/ publisher is not required in partner requirements of steam.

Once you agree to publish a game on steam they'll ask you for a bank account to forward the funds to,

Awesome, thanks dude

And where you see your money info, like, there has to be a seller admin or number of games sold and funds to select an amount to cashout, in youtube you have to select an amount to cashout.

All countries and all banks in the world apply or is there a list of pre-aproved ones?

I believe there is a minimum funds before they will send it to you, and they send the money at the end of the month.

Most banks would probably work just fine as long as they have a SWIFT code Steam should have no trouble sending you money.
