Introduction
Waxpeer is a peer-to-peer marketplace for CS2, Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2, operated by Peer Software Limited and registered in the Marshall Islands — the least conventional corporate jurisdiction of any marketplace in this comparison.
How the market works
Waxpeer describes itself as a worldwide marketplace built on a player-to-player system: items move directly from one Steam account to another rather than through platform-held inventory. A browser extension handles auto-accepting trades, which is what makes the model workable at volume.
Fees explained
Waxpeer charges a flat 6% seller fee — its own FAQ spells out the arithmetic directly: sell an item for $100 and $94 lands in your balance once delivery completes. Funding runs through credit card, PayPal, e-wallets or bank transfer, and payouts through a bank card or bank account, both listed in its terms. Waxpeer itself publishes no static rate for either — both are shown in-app only once you have picked a payment method — but third-party reporting puts deposits at roughly 1–2.8% and withdrawals at 1–2%, depending on the rail. No source reports a charge for buying itself, so that stands at 0%.
How to buy
Fund your balance by credit card, PayPal, e-wallet or bank transfer — the four deposit rails Waxpeer’s terms name — then buy directly from a listing. Delivery runs on the same player-to-player model as the rest of the site, so the item comes straight from the seller’s Steam account rather than a platform-held inventory.
How to sell
List an item and Waxpeer takes its flat 6% once the sale completes, the same $100-in, $94-out arithmetic its FAQ quotes. Because the marketplace is peer-to-peer, the skin transfers directly to the buyer’s Steam account, and the browser extension auto-accepts that trade so you are not left confirming it manually.
Cashing out
Waxpeer’s terms name bank card and bank account as the payout rails, and require identity verification before either is available. The terms commit only to processing times — within 24 hours on business days, up to three business days for some methods — and stop short of a published rate; third-party reporting puts the withdrawal cost at roughly 1–2%, varying by the rail you pick.
Reputation
Waxpeer is the reputational outlier here. It holds a 2.4 rating on Trustpilot — the only marketplace in this comparison in the "Poor" band — across a relatively small base of around 440 reviews. That is worth weighing against the convenience of its P2P model.
Who it's for
Suited to traders who specifically want direct peer-to-peer transfers across several Valve games and are comfortable checking the quoted commission each time.
