How Gamivo keys work

The "Check price on Gamivo" buttons on this site take you to Gamivo. Here's what you're buying and what to check first.

Gamivo is a marketplace

Gamivo doesn't sell games itself. Independent sellers list game keys there, and prices vary between sellers. Gamivo runs the payment and handles disputes between buyers and sellers.

What you get

For most listings you get a Steam key: a code you activate in Steam to add the game to your library. Some listings are Steam gifts instead, which arrive as a gift on your Steam account. Either way, the game then downloads and plays on your Steam Deck just like a game bought from Steam.

To activate a key, enter it at store.steampowered.com/account/registerkey from any browser while logged in to Steam, or use Games → Activate a Product on Steam in the Steam app on a PC or in Steam Deck's Desktop Mode. The game then appears in your library on the Deck.

Check before you buy

• Region. Many keys only work in certain regions, such as Europe or North America. Look for "Global" or your own region on the listing. A key for the wrong region may not activate on your account.
• Platform. Make sure the listing is for Steam, not another store such as Epic, GOG or Xbox. Our links filter Gamivo's search to Steam, but check the listing anyway.
• Edition. Standard, Deluxe and DLC are often listed separately. Make sure you're buying the base game if that's what you want.
• Seller rating. Each seller has a rating and number of sales. Higher is safer.
• Final price. Prices at checkout can include fees or optional extras. Check the total before you pay.

Steam Deck compatibility

A key gives you the same game as Steam does, so the Verified or Playable rating on each game page still applies.
