Payee IBAN and Bank SWIFT Code
I wanted to upload some skins to workshop and Steam started asking me about payment details.
I don't know where to find Payee IBAN and Bank SWIFT Code
I searched through all documents I have and haven't found anything

I'm stuck on this page http://prntscr.com/n9vn38

Do you have a bank account?

Have you googled?

if your bank has a website (which it should have), you can log in to it and find the needed details.
if that is not an option you can call into the bank and find out what your banks swift is and get then get iban.

the explaination is literally written on the screenshot you posted...
are you a native english speaker? because I think you misunderstand what payee means.

I contacted my bank and they told me that I need to open a foreign currency account. The account I have is an account with a Visa Electron internet payment card.

Why does Steam requires this?
I'm able to receive money from foreign countries via PayPal.

not sure why you wouldnt have normal credit card/debit card, how do you receive your payments from your work? how do you shop, just with cash? or youre perhaps underage?
either way youll need that info if you want to share things on workshop, as far as im informed.

I have two credit cards.
The one I got before I started working so I can purchase stuff online, and that's the card I'm trying to use here.
Second credit card is the card I got when I started working. That card is not from the same bank as the first one and I use that card to receive payments from work.

I planned to use the first one for online stuff and the second one only for receiving payments from work and never connect to online website.

I was able to receive payments from BitSkins and refunds from GearBest on the first credit card without needing IBAN or SWIFT code.

I sent email to my second bank and asked them for IBAN and SWIFT.
I'm currently waiting for their response.

An iban is for a bank account not a credit card and the swift code is the identifier for bank it’s part off. I don’t believe you can use a credit card for this matter.

Phone the bank where you have your main current account that you get paid into and ask them for the iban and swift code for that account.

bank account/credit card is tied with iban, my iban is written on my credit card itself. also have a debit card with iban written on it. how iban looks vary from bank to bank and from country to country.

Your debit card is tied to your bank account and will use the same Iban as that.

As for credit cards I haven’t had any myself that have an Iban but that could just be because of the types I have had.

If the OP’s bank has stated that they need to open up a bank account then I would say that’s because there card does not support it.

I contacted my second bank and they gave me IBAN and SWIFT code.

That credit card had part of IBAN on it. I just had to add BA39 before that.

I successfully filled all information and finally uploaded skins to the workshop.

Thank you all for help

And I'd be very happy if you could click that thumbs up button on this

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
