No trading for 7 days?

[Zeeshan]

i am a new csgo player and i want to buy a csgo skin.
i recently bought 20$ and want to use the market but i cant. this is what it says..


The Market is unavailable for the following reason(s):
You must have a valid Steam purchase that is between 30 days and a year old with no recent chargebacks or payment disputes. To remove this restriction...
You are logging into The Market from a device that has not been protected by Steam Guard for 7 days. More info...

No, you seem to be talking about having a limited account, and the amount is $5 USD....not euros.

That is normal. Make a purchase, and wait 30 days. This is different than the issue of having a limited account, which you seem to have met the restriction for at this time, according to what you posted above.

Simply adding the funds is not enough. You have to "make a purchase" with some or all of them.

Purchase Limitations

Your account must have a successful purchase older than 30 days, but not older than a year in order to access the Community Market. The purchase of wallet funds, games, DLCs and software meet this requirement. Retail CD key activations and gift purchases do not satisfy this requirement.

Where did you buy that wallet card ?

If you did not make a purchase on Steam, then that is why it is not "off". Make a purchase. An in-game item or game on Steam counts as a purchase.

After that, wait 30 days, as said. You can see your purchase history here below....

in game item such a csgo skin will that count?

You can't use the market transaction with a limited account so that's irrelevant, focus on getting your account unlimited, follow The Giving One's instructions.

Adding money into your account balance by paying directly to Steam will count enough, but you'll have to wait 30 days for it to confirm.

I bought a prepaid

That's such a dumb rule why

[Carolynne]

Because prepaid cards can be gifted or stolen or such. They're not as easy to confirm the legitimacy as paying directly to Steam.
