market not working after 30 days wallet buyed

[Seraphine]

can someone explain me or give me an idea of why is this happeing? , i have my steam guard and all the things i need to use it and i just keep getting this message that market is unavaliable :( eeeelp plz

Adding a wallet card would make an account unlimited. You'd need to have a purchase between 30 days and 1 year old to remove the Market restriction the last time I remember.

In short: Buy something from the Steam Store (any price), wait 30 days.

i did i even have 5 $ founds , but still cant use market after the 30 days

[gwait]

Not really sure how that is relevant.

[Seraphine]

so ure saying i need to buy something for steam store , when they exactly say that you just need to buy a product like the giftcard i used?

[gwait]

They didn't say that (only for limited accounts). Limited account and Market restriction you are getting are two different things.

And yes, you have to buy something from the Steam Store and then wait 30 days to use the Market.

They exactly say that Steam Wallet Cards / Code redemptions are not purchases.

Please note, Wallet code redemption does not grant access to the Community Market.

Purchasing funds counts only if it's done here: https://store.steampowered.com/steamaccount/addfunds/

THEREFORE, what gwait says is correct.

my account isn't unlimited , im just talking about market .

Yes, Wallet code redemption unlimits you.

Market wants a purchase. A gift card redemption isn't a purchase.

Since your account is unlimited, its value doesn't matter.

The only thing that matters is that you have a purchase, and that it's older than 30 days; less than 365 days old.

If you acquire its trading cards and sell them on the Steam Community Market in 30 days once you've got access, you should make up for most of its cost, if you want.
