What Valve won't notice is all the topics here. They don't come to this forum.
I know people who have got into trouble because they couldn't pay back the interest on Credit Cards, the compulsion to spend was too great.
As I understand it, Steam allows you to have ONE card on your account, so what this is basically doing is saying, "If you want full access to the site, get in the credit trap.", that's NO different to some of the more dodgy online pron sites of the 90's to be honest...
Credit card companies were already using their influence to try and manipulate what you buy in the first place before this kicked in too.
Credit Cards are just a better dressed loan shark, still scummy at the core.
People that are DISABLED can't work and they rely off benefits but they're allowed to treat themselves to games
Percent people with credit cards by country, around the world | TheGlobalEconomy.com https://share.google/iSDTE1i86kyprJ06Z
Actually, the percentage is definitely higher now. Those World Bank stats were from four years ago.
Maybe this is Valve's compromise to Visa and Mastercard - we'll bait people into getting credit cards if you get off our backs with adult content pressure. The whole situation stinks.
It's all a load of rubbish and regardless, Valve should not be using this as a mechanism for verification especially without other options on the table.
65% of UK adults (35.3 million) owned a credit card in 2024, more than 3 times as many as had an overdraft (21%).

one of the easiest ways to build good credit is to pay with credit then at the end/start of the month clear it with your debit card.
Try not to use Google AI for all your research next time because that also isn't accurate
You know what's actually wholly inaccurate? Your 'trust me bro' assertion. Keep feeding your false narrative though, lol.
I could probably amass 25 by the end of play today and not use one.
