Buying trading cards: Money goes to the developer or Valve(Steam)?
When I buy trading cards I mostly do this to give some extra support to the developer for making a good game and also like an indicator on how much I like the game.

I've tried fiding the answer to the question above, but to no avail.

The majority of the money goes to seller. Both the dev and Valve gets a small cut of what you paid.

Thanks!
Do you happen to know the distribution of the pay between the developer and Steam?

If you buy a card for let's say 0.07€, seller gets 0.05€ and the remaining 0.02€ is split between the dev and Valve. That's all I know really.

OK, I hope the developer gets more than Valve does though.
Thanks for clearing this up(I did know the seller amount ^^).

The fees are 5% to Valve, 10% to the developer. Capped at a minimum, ie if you buy an item for 3 cents, the seller gets 1c, Valve gets 1c, the dev gets 1c.
