Steam Actions

Every Steam action asks entrants to sign in through the Gleam.io Steam app first. They'll see this before they give access:

Steam Entry opens your competition to anyone with a Steam account. They sign in with Steam and get their entry.

Don't Allow Limited Accounts is on by default. It cuts spam by only letting in accounts that have spent at least $5 USD on Steam.

Check whether entrants have played your game on Steam. It's a great way to promote your game, and to give extra entries to people who've put the hours in.

Paste your Game URL from the Steam Store. Set Hours Played if you want entrants to have played for a while before they qualify.

Check whether entrants are members of your Steam Community group. Use it to grow your group, or to reward the members you already have.

Paste your Group URL and add a Group Name. Don't Allow Limited Accounts works the same as on Steam Entry.

Our Promote Steam Game template puts these actions to work.

If entrants see this error, they'll need a profile that isn't limited and looks like a real player's.

Steam limits what we can see on private and limited profiles. Entrants with one can't complete some actions, and they'll see:

Sorry, we cannot check private profiles
