Frequently Asked Questions

General

XD.deals is a free price comparison website for video games. We aggregate prices from dozens of official stores and keyshops so you can always find the cheapest deal for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo games.

We automatically collect prices from official stores (Steam, Epic, PlayStation Store, etc.) and keyshops. When you search for a game, we show all available offers sorted by price so you can quickly find the best deal.

Yes, XD.deals is completely free. We earn a small commission through affiliate links when you purchase a game through one of our partner stores. This never affects the price you pay.

We compare prices for PC (Steam, Epic, GOG, Ubisoft, EA), PlayStation (PS4/PS5), Xbox (One/Series X|S), and Nintendo Switch games. Both digital and key-based offers are included.

Account

No, you can browse and compare prices without an account. However, creating a free account lets you set price alerts, build a wishlist, and sync your Steam library for personalized recommendations.

Go to your account settings and click "Connect Steam". You'll be redirected to Steam's official login page. Once connected, we'll import your library so you can easily track prices for games you don't own yet.

When viewing any game, click "Set Alert" and choose your target price. We'll send you an email notification as soon as the price drops to or below your target at any tracked store.

Game keys

Official stores (Steam, Epic, PlayStation Store) sell games directly from publishers with full platform support. Keyshops are third-party marketplaces where independent sellers offer game keys, often at lower prices but with slightly higher risk.

We only list keyshops with a proven track record of reliability. However, keyshop purchases carry slightly more risk than official stores. We recommend checking store ratings and reviews before buying.

Some game keys can only be activated in specific regions. We clearly mark region-locked offers on XD.deals. Always check the region restrictions before purchasing a key to make sure it works in your country.

Support

Since XD.deals is a price comparison site, all purchases are made directly with the store. If you have an issue, contact the store's support team directly. If the problem persists, let us know through our contact page.

If you notice a price that seems wrong or outdated, please report it through our contact page. We'll investigate and update it as soon as possible.

You can reach us through our contact page. We typically respond within 24-48 hours.
