What is a Steam gift and how is it different from a key?

A gift is a present our bot sends straight to your Steam account via your profile link: no code to enter, the game appears in your library once you accept the gift. A key is an activation code you enter yourself in the Steam client. You choose the format on the purchase panel.

Which gift region should I choose?

The one your Steam account is registered in: Steam will not accept a gift from another region. The region is shown in your Steam account settings under "Store country". "CIS countries" means Belarus, Armenia, Georgia and other CIS countries.

How will I receive the gift?

After payment you enter a link to your Steam profile and the bot sends the gift straight to the account — you only need to accept it in Steam. It usually takes 2–5 minutes, around the clock.

What if the account already has this game?

Steam will not let you accept a gift of a game already in your library — check the library before buying. If it happens, write in the order chat: we will refund you.

Common questions

Does Civilization V Complete Edition have Russian language support?

Voice-over: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian. Interface and subtitles: Russian, English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Polish, Japanese, Korean, Китайский (трад.).

Which regions does the key activate in?

The key activates with no regional restrictions — in any country, on a Steam account from any region. Once activated, the game stays on your account for good.

How soon does the code arrive after payment?

Keys are issued automatically, around the clock: the code appears on the order page within 2–3 minutes.

What to do if the key does not activate?

First check your Steam account region: the key activates in the countries of its own region, and a mismatch is the most common reason activation fails. If the region is right, open “Orders” in the site header, pick the order and write in the chat — you can attach a screenshot of the error, and an operator replies.
