The Steam Trading API offers a robust solution for facilitating game item trading without the need for a traditional Steam Trading Bot. This API empowers the development of platforms resembling Skinport, Skinbaron, or other marketplaces, as well as services for instant skin buy/sell transactions.
You won’t require a node trade bot — our Tradeoffer API supports your marketplace, trading sites, or any other innovative concept you have in mind.
You can use our API to create various services, including:
In a B2C model, your bot directly interacts with customers — similar to operations on Skinport, Skinbaron, Dmarket, and other major platforms.
You’ll own an account where items are sent or received instantly without delay.
Challenges in B2C:
In a P2P model, customers send items directly to the buyer.
Platforms like Whitemarket, Waxpeer, or Buff use this approach, where items reach the owner directly and are released by the seller after a delay.
Low Challenges in P2P:
We’ve built an extension that allows you to do all of this seamlessly.
Your customers only need to install the extension — you can then retrieve status, inventory, or trades without any further programming.
You no longer need the steamloginsecure cookie.
High Challenges in P2P:
Alternatively, you can build your own extension or solution and use our API endpoints with a steamloginsecure cookie.
Retrieve the steamloginsecure cookie from steamcommunity.com.
While our API can perform various trade actions, you’ll still need to confirm them on your mobile device due to Steam’s restrictions.
We’re actively exploring solutions for mobile device confirmation and plan to provide an open-source solution in the future.

All trade endpoints require a JSON payload.
