Openbucks on Steam would be cool
Openbucks is a service for vendors enabling them to take certain gift cards as a valid form of payment.
https://www.openbucks.com/
League of Legends & Riot games is an example of a vendor who works with Openbucks.

Idk the details of the arrangement but it could be a good idea to at least look into it.
For example I have a useless subway gift card which I will never use even if im starving. I would LOVE to give this to steam, minus w.e fees entail, for literally anything else. I assume steam redeems them with Openbucks for real money, but again I don't know those details.

Anyone else feeling it? plz take my money Steam :) <3

Can you not just trade the cards for PayPal money then pay for games with PayPal?

Hm interesting, i'll look into it. I had no idea paypal did that. Thanks!
It could still be a good idea for steam either way.

The following cards are available by region, however, not all cards are available on all sites. Please check the merchant sites you are purchasing from for the list of gift cards available through Openbucks.

United States: SUBWAY, CVS/Pharmacy, Dollar General and oBucks
Canada: SUBWAY
Hong Kong: Pacific Coffee
Philippines: EPlus Online
so basicly you can buy your fideo gaimes with your lunch money and support of mafia and triades.

no thanks, i pass on that.

Can you explain that? Even a little bit? lol
Are you trying to say the mafia AND triad own Openbucks? because if so you should probably support that accusation with something instead of nothing.

Also where did you find that "quote"?

Also no one eats subway, that's liable to kill you. Gotta do something with this useless money.

"Partners with G2A" is all I need to say, no.

Interesting choice. Idk what that has to do with anything since it doesn't affect anything but it's a free internet, do what ya wan't.
Steam wouldn't be partnering with G2A
It seems like there are thousands of companies that use the service so I would be surprised if you liked all of them, but again that doesn't make much sense to hate everything remotely connected to it. Maybe i'm missing something tho.

Steam doesn't have any affiliation with G2A and since that company does, it says volumes about what wuddih stated.

G2A is a scammer and fraudster paradise. This makes it seem like OB doesn't care where the money comes from. They'll wash it all and make everyone feel better.

Well that is bad if it's true, but again hating everything remotely connected to it is abit drastic. Does that mean riot and every other business involved is also liable as far as your concerned?

Gift card trade in companies are all over run with people using stolen money to buy the cards and trading them in for other ones. And using proceeds from drug running and illegal gun sales to move money through the system. That is why the business model will always favor the criminal organizations.

I doubt Valve would want to go down with them.

How did you find all this out? Do you have anything to support that?
Common sense kinda leans towards no. The amount of cash your proposing would be extreme and this system just couldn't support something like that effectively. Can you even imagine how tidious that would be let alone all the red flags you would throw up. It's also risky.
idk maybe your right but it kinda sounds like bs to me.

Like why trade real money, even illegal money, for games. Then what? Sell those games legally? Where and more importantly to who. That would be alot of games m8.

That is not the point. The point is the cards are used to launder money through their system.
