Question 1

Are CS:GO trading bot sites still safe in 2026?

Accepted Answer

Security varies dramatically. Trusted bot sites with long operating histories remain functional, but the model itself carries inherent risk: you deposit items into third-party inventories. CSBoard eliminates this risk for peer-to-peer trades by executing all transactions through Steam's native trade system — the platform never holds your skins. You retain posession until the moment a buyer's offer is confirmed.

Question 2

What payout methods do CS:GO trading bot sites offer compared to CSBoard?

Accepted Answer

Most CS:GO trading bot sites convert your skins into site balance first, then offer withdrawals via bank transfer or PayPal — a process that can take 3-7 business days and often triggers KYC verification. CSBoard uses instant USDT payouts on four networks: TRC20, BEP20, Solana, and TON. The crypto arrives in your wallet seconds after the buyer confirms receipt.

Question 3

How does 0% trading fee on CSBoard actually work?

Accepted Answer

On CSBoard's P2P marketplace, the buyer and seller set their own price and trade directly through Steam. No commission is deducted from the trade value. The platform generates revenue from optional boosted listings and premium features, not from a take rate on your items. Compare that to the 5-12% spread baked into every swap on traditional CS:GO trading bot sites.

Question 4

Where can I find Tier 2 blue gem knives without using a bot site?

Accepted Answer

CSBoard lets you append a tier filter to any item URL. For example, /en/items/karambit-case-hardened-field-tested?tier=Tier-2 shows only Tier-2 Karambit Case Hardened patterns currently listed for P2P trade. You can do the same for M9 Bayonets, Butterfly Knives, and AK-47s.

Question 5

Why do CS:GO trading bot sites still exist if P2P is better?

Accepted Answer

Bot sites offer one-click swaps that require zero negotiation — you see a price, you click, the trade completes. For small, low-value skins under $10, that convenience still has appeal. For items above $50, the commission savings on a zero-fee P2P marketplace like CSBoard quickly outweigh the extra 30 seconds it takes to browse active P2P listings.

Question 6

Do I need a trade link to sell skins on CSBoard?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you need a public Steam trade URL, just like you would on any CS:GO trading bot site. The difference is that on CSBoard, the trade executes directly between your Steam account and the buyer's account. No bot inventories are involved.
