Gifting Steam DCS modules internationally


Beirut

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm having trouble figuring this one out: can I buy a Steam DCS module from my Canadian Steam account and send it to someone for their European Steam account?

 

Thank you for any help.

Some of the planes, but all of the maps!

I believe it is no longer allowed. There were many people buying games and modules on Steam Argentina and sending them to multiple accounts. I believe Steam blocked it. To be sure you have to look at Steam's policies.

I looked and it mentioned restrictions but I didn't see it spelled out clearly. That's kind of a bummer, I wanted to send something off.

People were acting in bad faith and that's why Steam blocked it. Even changing account to buy in another country was restricted. An example. If you change the account to Argentina. You will need to have a means of payment issued in Argentina to be able to approve the purchase.

Ech! 🤨

 

Now I have to go back on my offer to gift a module. That's kind of embarrassing. 

 

But thanks for the clarification.

The FAQ says gift restrictions are on the product page.
