❓ Do you offer keys for platforms other than Steam?
Our main focus is Steam, but we occasionally feature keys for Epic Games, Origin, GOG, Uplay, and other PC platforms. These keys will be clearly labeled based on the platform they activate on.

❓ Do you auto-generate keys?
No. We do not auto-generate CD keys, and we do not support key cracking or illegal distribution. All Steam keys are stored in encrypted sponsor databases and are distributed automatically to users after they complete a valid offer or task. This ensures fairness, legality, and a clean platform experience.
❓ I completed a task but didn’t receive my Steam key immediately. Why?
If your Steam key isn’t delivered instantly, it may be due to our bot-prevention system. In such cases, you’ll see a message like:
“Awaiting task/offer completion.”
Don’t worry—your request is queued and will be manually reviewed by a team member. You should receive your key within 1 to 5 minutes after completion.
❓ What is a CD Key, and why is it important?
A CD Key (also known as a product key or license code) is a 15-character alphanumeric code used to activate digital games. Once entered into a game platform like Steam, it permanently unlocks the full version of the game in your library—no need for a disc or retail packaging. It’s a modern, eco-friendly way to own games.
❓ Is ValidCDKeys safe from scams and malware?
Yes. Our entire website is SSL-secured, and we do not host or distribute any executable files. All you receive is a text-based game key. We never ask for personal payment information or install software on your device.
❓ How do I activate a CD Key on Steam?
Here’s how to redeem your Steam key in a few quick steps:
-
Open your Steam desktop app.
-
Click on the “Games” tab in the top menu.
-
Select “Activate a Product on Steam…”

Follow the instructions and enter your CD key.

If valid, you’ll see a confirmation that your game has been added to your library.
