Terms of Use

Effective date: 17 September 2026

Please read these Terms of Use carefully before accessing or using SkinsTradeHub. By creating an account, browsing the platform, or completing any transaction, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety.

1. About SkinsTradeHub

SkinsTradeHub (https://skinstradehub.com) is a peer-to-peer digital marketplace where users can buy, sell, and trade virtual in-game items for Counter-Strike 2 (CS2), Rust, and Dota 2. The platform connects individual sellers with prospective buyers and provides the infrastructure necessary to facilitate secure item exchanges through the Steam trading system.

SkinsTradeHub is owned and operated by NUVETA VECTOR LTD, a company incorporated in England and Wales under registration number 17092820, with its registered office at International House, 50 Essex Street, London, England, WC2R 3JF.

SkinsTradeHub operates independently and holds no affiliation, partnership, or endorsement relationship with Valve Corporation, Steam, or any game developer or publisher. All game titles, character names, item descriptions, and associated imagery referenced on the platform remain the intellectual property of their respective owners. Virtual items traded on SkinsTradeHub exist within and are governed by the Steam ecosystem and Valve’s own subscriber agreements.

These Terms of Use, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, constitute a legally binding agreement between you (the “User”) and NUVETA VECTOR LTD (referred to as “SkinsTradeHub,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). If you do not accept any part of these Terms, you must discontinue use of the platform immediately.

2. Eligibility & Registration

Access to SkinsTradeHub is restricted to individuals who meet the following criteria:

• Age requirement: You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher. By registering, you confirm that you meet this threshold.
• Steam account: A valid, active Steam account in good standing is mandatory. Accounts that are trade-banned, community-banned, or otherwise restricted by Valve cannot be used on SkinsTradeHub.
• Legal capacity: You must have the legal authority to enter into binding contracts under the laws applicable to you. If you are acting on behalf of a legal entity, you represent that you have proper authorisation to bind that entity to these Terms.
• Jurisdictional compliance: You are responsible for confirming that your use of SkinsTradeHub does not violate any law, regulation, or restriction applicable in your country or region of residence.

Registration is handled through Steam OpenID authentication. When you sign up, SkinsTradeHub retrieves basic profile data from your Steam account to create your user profile. You agree to keep all profile information current and accurate. Each individual may maintain only one SkinsTradeHub account. Operating multiple accounts is grounds for immediate suspension.

3. Account Obligations

Once your account is created, you assume full responsibility for its security and for every action taken through it. This obligation applies regardless of whether the activity was performed by you directly or by a third party who gained access to your credentials.

Security requirements:

• Enable and maintain Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator on your linked Steam account. Trades cannot be processed securely without Steam Guard active for at least 15 days.
• Keep a valid and up-to-date Steam Trade URL configured in your SkinsTradeHub account settings at all times. An invalid or expired Trade URL will prevent item delivery.
• Do not share your login credentials, API keys, session tokens, or Trade URL with any third party.
• Use strong, unique passwords for all associated accounts, including your Steam account and email address linked to SkinsTradeHub.

Notification duty: If you suspect any unauthorised access, security breach, or suspicious activity involving your SkinsTradeHub account, you must notify us without delay at info@skinstradehub.com. We will take reasonable steps to secure your account upon receiving such notice, but we cannot accept liability for losses that occur before notification.

Account integrity: You agree not to transfer, sell, or lease your SkinsTradeHub account to another individual. Any attempt to do so will result in permanent termination of the account.

4. Marketplace Transactions

SkinsTradeHub serves as a neutral intermediary that connects buyers and sellers. We are not a party to any transaction between users. Our role is limited to providing the technical infrastructure, escrow functionality, and communication channels necessary for trades to occur.

Purchasing items:

1. Browse the marketplace and add desired items to your cart.
2. Proceed to checkout and complete payment using your platform balance or a supported payment method.
3. Once payment is confirmed, SkinsTradeHub’s automated system initiates a Steam trade offer to deliver the purchased item to your Steam inventory.
4. You must accept the incoming trade offer within the designated time window. Failure to accept may result in cancellation of the order.

Selling items:

1. List eligible items from your Steam inventory on the SkinsTradeHub marketplace by setting your desired asking price.
2. When a buyer purchases your listing, you will receive a Steam trade offer requesting the sold item.
3. Accept the trade offer promptly to complete the transaction. The sale proceeds, minus any applicable commission, will be credited to your SkinsTradeHub balance.
4. If you fail to accept the trade offer within the required timeframe, the sale may be cancelled and repeated failures may result in account restrictions.

Finality of trades: Once a Steam trade offer associated with a SkinsTradeHub transaction has been accepted by both parties, the transaction is considered final and irreversible. Neither SkinsTradeHub nor the parties involved can reverse a completed Steam trade. You are encouraged to verify all item details, including name, condition, and any special attributes, before confirming any trade offer.

5. Deposits & Platform Balance

SkinsTradeHub allows users to deposit funds into their platform balance for the purpose of purchasing virtual items. Deposits may be made using the payment methods available at the time of the transaction, which may include credit and debit cards, bank transfers, cryptocurrency, and other electronic payment solutions.

The following deposit limits apply:

Type	Minimum	Maximum
Deposit	€5	€3,000 per transaction

SkinsTradeHub reserves the right to modify these limits or restrict specific payment methods at any time, with or without prior notice, in order to comply with regulatory obligations or combat fraud.

Important clarifications regarding your balance:

• Your SkinsTradeHub balance is not a bank account, deposit account, or electronic money instrument. It represents a pre-paid credit that may only be used within the SkinsTradeHub platform.
• Balances are non-transferable between user accounts. You may not gift, assign, or otherwise move your balance to another SkinsTradeHub user.
• No interest or returns of any kind accrue on funds held in your platform balance.
• SkinsTradeHub may delay or decline deposits that trigger fraud detection systems or that appear to violate applicable anti-money laundering regulations.

6. Payouts

Users who have accumulated funds in their SkinsTradeHub balance through sales or other eligible activity may request a withdrawal (payout) subject to the conditions outlined below.

Prerequisites for withdrawal:

• Successful completion of our Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification process (see Section 9).
• A verified payout method linked to your account.
• No outstanding disputes, investigations, or account restrictions.

The following withdrawal limits apply:

Type	Minimum	Maximum
Withdrawal	€10	€9,000 per transaction

Processing times for payouts depend on the chosen withdrawal method and may range from a few hours to several business days. SkinsTradeHub does not impose its own fees on withdrawal transactions; however, third-party payment providers, banks, or intermediary services may apply their own charges, currency conversion costs, or processing fees over which SkinsTradeHub has no control.

We reserve the right to delay or withhold payouts where there are reasonable grounds to suspect fraudulent activity, where additional identity checks are required, or where mandated by law enforcement or regulatory authorities.

7. Fees & Pricing

All prices displayed on SkinsTradeHub are denominated in Euros (EUR). Sellers determine the listing price for their items at their own discretion. SkinsTradeHub does not set, recommend, or endorse any particular pricing.

Marketplace commission: SkinsTradeHub charges a commission on completed sales. The applicable commission rate is disclosed to sellers at the point of listing and is deducted automatically from the sale proceeds before crediting the seller’s balance. The commission rate may vary based on item type, value, promotional periods, or seller tier, and SkinsTradeHub reserves the right to adjust commission rates with reasonable notice.

Service fees: Certain transactions may be subject to additional service fees, which will always be clearly displayed to you before you confirm the transaction at checkout. No hidden charges will be applied after the fact.

Currency and price accuracy: While SkinsTradeHub endeavours to display accurate, up-to-date prices, we do not guarantee that all pricing information is free from error at all times. In the event of a manifest pricing error, we reserve the right to cancel affected transactions and restore balances to their pre-transaction state.

8. Refunds & Disputes

Due to the nature of digital goods and the irreversibility of Steam trades, the following refund principles apply:

• Completed purchases: Once a Steam trade offer has been accepted and the virtual item has been delivered to your inventory, the transaction is final. No refund will be issued for successfully delivered items.
• Failed deliveries: If a purchased item cannot be delivered due to a system error, seller non-fulfilment, or trade offer expiration, the purchase amount will be returned to your SkinsTradeHub balance.
• Unused deposit funds: Deposits that have not been used in any transaction may be eligible for a refund to the original payment method, subject to review and applicable processing fees. Eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis.
• Promotional credits and bonuses: Any bonus funds, promotional credits, or referral rewards are non-refundable under all circumstances.

For full details on our refund procedures and eligibility criteria, please consult our dedicated Refund Policy available on the platform.

Dispute resolution: If you believe a transaction was processed incorrectly, that an item was misrepresented, or that you have been the victim of fraud on the platform, you may open a dispute by contacting our support team at info@skinstradehub.com. Please include your username, the transaction ID, and a detailed description of the issue. We will investigate all disputes in good faith and aim to reach a resolution within a reasonable timeframe. Decisions made by SkinsTradeHub following a dispute investigation are final and binding.

9. Identity Verification (KYC)

SkinsTradeHub is committed to preventing fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. To that end, we implement Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures in compliance with applicable regulations.

When verification is required:

• Before processing your first withdrawal request.
• Before activating selling privileges on the marketplace.
• When your account activity triggers our automated risk thresholds.
• At any time, at SkinsTradeHub’s sole discretion, as part of ongoing due diligence.

Documents and information you may be asked to provide:

• A government-issued photographic identification document (passport, national ID card, or driving licence).
• Verification of your email address.
• Proof of address (utility bill, bank statement, or official correspondence dated within the last three months).
• A selfie or live photograph for facial comparison against your submitted ID.
• Source of funds documentation where transaction volumes or patterns warrant additional scrutiny.

Consequences of non-compliance: If you refuse to provide requested verification documents, provide falsified or altered documents, or fail to complete the verification process within the given timeframe, SkinsTradeHub may restrict your account functionality, withhold pending payouts, or permanently close your account. Funds remaining in a closed account due to KYC failure will be handled in accordance with applicable law.

10. Acceptable Use

You agree to use SkinsTradeHub solely for its intended purpose: the lawful buying, selling, and trading of virtual in-game items. The following conduct is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms:

• Fraud and deception: Engaging in any form of fraudulent activity, including but not limited to chargebacks, payment fraud, listing counterfeit or non-existent items, or manipulating transaction records.
• Money laundering: Using the platform to launder proceeds of crime, structure transactions to avoid reporting thresholds, or facilitate any form of illicit financial activity.
• Exploitation of vulnerabilities: Deliberately exploiting bugs, glitches, errors, or security vulnerabilities in the platform, whether for personal gain or otherwise. You must report any discovered vulnerabilities to us promptly.
• Data harvesting and scraping: Using automated scripts, crawlers, bots, or any other means to extract, scrape, copy, or index data from SkinsTradeHub without our express written permission.
• Impersonation: Misrepresenting your identity, posing as another user, a SkinsTradeHub employee, or any other individual or entity.
• Harassment and abuse: Threatening, harassing, bullying, or intimidating other users through any communication channel associated with the platform.
• Circumventing restrictions: Attempting to bypass account suspensions, trade restrictions, geographic blocks, rate limits, or any other safeguard implemented by SkinsTradeHub.
• Automation and bots: Deploying bots, macros, or any automated tools to interact with the platform, place orders, snipe listings, or perform any action that a human user would normally carry out manually, unless explicitly authorised by SkinsTradeHub in writing.
• Market manipulation: Coordinating with other users or using multiple accounts to artificially inflate or deflate item prices, create false demand, or engage in wash trading.
• Illegal activity: Using SkinsTradeHub for any purpose that violates applicable local, national, or international law.

SkinsTradeHub reserves the right to investigate suspected violations and to take any action it deems appropriate, including account suspension, balance forfeiture, and referral to law enforcement authorities.

No right, title, or interest in any part of the platform is transferred to you by virtue of these Terms or your use of the service.

User-generated content: By submitting, posting, or displaying any content on SkinsTradeHub (including but not limited to profile information, item descriptions, and communications), you grant NUVETA VECTOR LTD a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, and display such content for the purpose of operating and promoting the platform.

Third-party intellectual property: Game titles, item names, character designs, artwork, and all related assets for Counter-Strike 2, Rust, Dota 2, and other Valve titles are the intellectual property of Valve Corporation and/or their respective creators. SkinsTradeHub’s use of these names and images is for descriptive and referential purposes only.

Virtual item ownership: Trading virtual items on SkinsTradeHub does not confer intellectual property rights over those items. Virtual items remain subject to Valve’s Steam Subscriber Agreement and the terms of the applicable game. Your rights in virtual items are limited to the licence granted by Valve, and SkinsTradeHub makes no representations regarding the nature or extent of those rights.

12. Disclaimers & Liability

Service provided “as is”: SkinsTradeHub is made available on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. To the fullest extent permitted by law, NUVETA VECTOR LTD disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and accuracy of information.

No availability guarantee: We do not warrant that the platform will operate without interruption, error, or delay. SkinsTradeHub may experience downtime due to maintenance, upgrades, server failures, cyberattacks, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to minimise disruptions but accept no liability for losses arising from unavailability.

Third-party dependencies: SkinsTradeHub relies on external services, including Steam’s API, payment processors, and hosting providers. We are not responsible for the performance, availability, or actions of these third-party services. Changes to Steam’s trading system, API, or policies may affect SkinsTradeHub functionality, and we bear no responsibility for such changes.

Limitation of liability: To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, NUVETA VECTOR LTD, its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, loss of virtual items, loss of goodwill, or business interruption, arising from or related to your use of SkinsTradeHub, regardless of the legal theory and whether or not NUVETA VECTOR LTD has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising under or in connection with these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total fees paid by you to SkinsTradeHub in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred Euros (€100).

Force majeure: NUVETA VECTOR LTD shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, government actions, power failures, internet outages, cyberattacks, or disruptions to the Steam platform.

13. Account Suspension

SkinsTradeHub may, at its sole discretion, suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate your account under any of the following circumstances:

• Breach of any provision of these Terms of Use.
• Suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity.
• Failure to complete required identity verification within a reasonable period.
• Receipt of a valid request or order from a law enforcement or regulatory authority.
• Extended account inactivity exceeding twelve (12) consecutive months.
• Operation of multiple accounts by the same individual.
• Association of your Steam account with trade bans, VAC bans, or community bans that compromise the integrity of the marketplace.

Effect on your balance: Where an account is suspended for investigation, your balance will be frozen for the duration of the review. If the investigation concludes that no violation occurred, your balance and account access will be restored. In cases of confirmed violation, SkinsTradeHub reserves the right to forfeit part or all of the account balance as a measure against abuse, subject to applicable law. Where an account is terminated for reasons other than user misconduct, any remaining legitimate balance will be returned to the user via an appropriate method, minus any outstanding fees or obligations.

Right to appeal: If your account is suspended or terminated, you may submit a written appeal to info@skinstradehub.com within thirty (30) days of the action. Your appeal should include your username, a detailed explanation of the circumstances, and any supporting evidence. SkinsTradeHub will review all appeals in good faith and respond within a reasonable timeframe. The outcome of the appeal review is at the sole discretion of SkinsTradeHub and constitutes a final decision.

14. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter (including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms, subject to the following:

• If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you retain the benefit of any mandatory consumer protection provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence.
• Nothing in these Terms limits your right to bring proceedings before any competent court where mandatory applicable law requires it.

Alternative dispute resolution: Before initiating formal legal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us at info@skinstradehub.com to attempt to resolve the matter amicably. If we are unable to reach a satisfactory resolution, EU-resident consumers may submit complaints through the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

15. Amendments & Contact

Right to modify: NUVETA VECTOR LTD reserves the right to revise, update, or replace these Terms of Use at any time. Modifications become effective upon publication on the platform unless otherwise specified.

Notification of material changes: Where changes are substantive in nature — such as modifications to fees, liability provisions, dispute resolution mechanisms, or user rights — we will provide at least fourteen (14) days’ advance notice before the revised Terms take effect. Notice may be delivered via email to the address associated with your account, through an in-platform notification banner, or by prominent display on the SkinsTradeHub website. Your continued use of the platform after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you must stop using SkinsTradeHub and close your account.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, or if modification is not possible, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Entire agreement: These Terms of Use, together with the Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and any supplementary terms or policies published on the platform, constitute the entire agreement between you and NUVETA VECTOR LTD regarding your use of SkinsTradeHub, superseding all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.
