Create a game and sell it on Steam, now you can start creating stuff for the pointshop.
Here's how it works:
Make sure your game is eligible for community items, and set up your trading card items and badge. We have a handy release checklist built into this tool to help you with this step.

You should see a new 'Points Shop Exclusive Items' section show up in your App Admin page under 'Steam Community Items'.

No. That's not possible.

You have to sell a game on the platform to be able to add point shop items. Normal users cannot add stuff to it.

The only ones created by "normal" people are the ones Valve commissioned to make, like Waneella did for multiple items.
