TF2 & Steam wallet

[ceoflorin]

Since I'm under 18, I can't get a credit card so I decided to go to a zebra pay/qiwi pay/ paypoint and buy a paysafe card or a steam wallet card and I kind of want to know if filling my wallet with 5€/5$ and buying an item in TF2 worth 5$ will unlock my tf2 p2p benefits and take off the limitation on the steam account or will I have to charge more than 5€ and buy a game + an item in tf2... Thanks 3:

You only have to charge 5 USD or your regional equivalent to unlimit your Steam account. How you do that doesn't really matter.
You can then spend the money any way you like.

Thanks, I wanted someone to clarify it because in the "How to remove the limited account" thread in steam rules/things it says that CD Keys/Gift Cards don't count.

Note:

CD Keys, retail purchases, and gifts do not remove limited user restrictions. See How do I gain access to these features? below for more information.

Steam Support cannot remove this limited user status from your account.

Nowhere does it mention PaySafe or Steam wallet cards.

I toook "Gifts" as "Gift cards"... Thanks for the clarification :)

The article meant Steam gift items aka games you can gift from your inventory.
