Option to add funds to steam wallet via app with itunes money

[mrfreaky123]

I think it would make it a lot easier if we could add funds to our steam wallet via the app using an itunes card.

100% agree.

Itunes wants their credit used on Steam as much as Steam wants their wallet to be used on Itunes...
You can buy Steam Wallet cards on many places or use paysafe cards to fill your wallet in many places.

They are somewhat competing platforms but the real contention lies in the profit division. Retaiers are charged a fee per a transaction plus a percent of the sale. If you use that card to purchase stuff on iTunes/Gplay Apple/Google get 30% of the money. Same thing happpens with Steam when it sells a game.

So someone would have to take a hit in revenue. If they can force you to keep your money in their own systems (as things work now) they make much more than a hypothetical multi-place usage.

So how would you divide the revenue? Right now it is Steam 30% (and they cover the CC fees let's say 5%) and the game maker gets 70%. So break up the sale into the following:

Game maker(dev/pub)-
Steam-
Apple/itunes-
Credit card/payment processor/store where bought-
