Top 4 Most Trustworthy CS2 Skin Trading Sites, Ranked

Ever since CS2 received its first tradeable skins, the craze about collecting, trading, buying, and selling them has not calmed down. And with Counter-Strike 2, where skins will be even prettier in the Source 2 engine compared to the CS:GO era, the craze will surely be re-ignited.

Most Trustworthy CS2 Skin Trading Websites

If you want to trade skins, you can, of course, go to the official Steam Community Market and purchase them from there legitimately. You can also sell your own skins on that same market. However, those funds will end up on your Steam Wallet, and there’s no possibility of cashing out. Due to this, many CS2 Skin Trading sites have sprouted over the past few years. These are the most trustworthy ones:

• Tradeit.GG (4.9 at TrustPilot, 13609 reviews)
• CS.Money (4.9 at TrustPilot, 3975 reviews)
• BitSkins (4.8 at TrustPilot, 1434 reviews)
• Skins Monkey (4.7 at TrustPilot, 611 reviews)

How to Know if a CS2 Skin Trading Site is Secure or Not – Best Security Practices

• Check the Steam EULA before buying or selling CS2 skins for real money. As far as we know, that type of transaction is not permitted by Steam or Valve. Even though few people get banned from trading or from Steam altogether, you must be aware of that being a possibility.
• Check the reputation of every site you stumble upon. Look for sites that have a good reputation within the CS2 community. You can do this by checking online reviews, whether it’s a YouTube channel, website, forum, or social media group or page.
• Check the security protocol of the website you are visiting. Make sure the site uses secure protocols, such as HTTPS.
• Verify the ownership of the website by checking WHOIS. A legitimate and trustworthy website will have transparent and accurate ownership information.
• Check their customer support quality. Look for CS2 Skin Trading websites that have responsive customer support channels, such as email, chat, or phone support. Trustpilot may give hints, but take it with a grain of salt. I have seen warnings from Trustpilot for some sites that may have inflated ratings because the site has been caught sending emails encouraging users to leave a five-star review.
• Use certified and trusted payment platforms, such as PayPal, which has its own support. You should be able to get your money back from PayPal in case there’s an issue. On the other hand, be careful when dealing with crypto because once it’s sent out, it’s gone.
• Ultimately, it’s up to you to do your due diligence and research before using any third-party CS2 skin trading site. Be careful when accepting trades because we’ve heard of situations where thieves try to emulate the name of the trading bot and send a trade offer that is the same as the one you want to do with a legitimate trade bot (also known as API hack).
