Steam gift cards have always been a dicey proposition depending on where you lived in the world but now Valve’s popular online store has made it easier. It’s launched digital gift cards, thus letting you send cards to friends to presumably buy games with.

The digital gift cards are available in five varieties – $5, $5, $10, $25, $50 and $100. You won’t be able to find the gift card options by typing in the search bar though so head here to this page to find them. Digital gift cards can only be sent on Steam to those whom you’re friends with. You also can’t send more than one and Steam Wallet funds can’t be used to buy them.

The timing of the digital gift cards is pretty good with the Steam Halloween Sale rumoured to go live tonight and the Steam Black Friday Sale and Steam Holiday Sale to follow in the coming months. If ever there was a time to splurge on gift cards, it would be now.

It may have been a while since the last Steam Sale but never fear – Valve is readying some pre-Holiday cheer, if some leaked dates are to be believed. The leaks first emerged via Reddit and Eurogamer later confirmed the dates independently.

You can look forward to the Steam Halloween Sale starting on October 26th and ending on November 1st. The Steam Black Friday Sale aka the Fall Sale will begin on November 22nd and ends on November 28th. Finally, the Steam Winter Sale will begin on December 24th and end on January 4th 2018.

Remember to take these as rumours since Valve hasn’t actually confirmed the same. Then again, the Steam Sale dates are usually leaked, year in and year out, and we never really know about them until they’re live. As it stands, the dates line up with previous years’ dates so these aren’t exactly unexpected.

Keep those wishlists and wallets handy, especially given all the other top-notch releases like Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus, Assassin’s Creed Origins and Super Mario Odyssey that will be releasing in the coming week.
