On-chain receipts, creator-driven discovery, and platform-native key activation — a transactional layer that augments rather than replaces your existing storefronts.
Reach buyers and creators outside your storefront, with publisher-set pricing you control.
On-chain receipts, creator giveaways, and streamer integrations expand the surface area for player discovery.
Activation hands off to your existing redeem page on Steam, Epic, or your own portal — we never touch keys.
Every purchase is auditable and traceable, giving you and the buyer a clean record independent of any single platform.
You list a game license drop with your normal pricing, key inventory, and supported platforms (Steam, Epic, PSN — Xbox and Nintendo coming). Buyers purchase through FlipKey.gg and receive a verifiable on-chain receipt. When they're ready to play, they're handed off to your existing redemption flow — they confirm their Steam (or Epic) account via OpenID, then return to your redeem page for the actual key activation. We never touch your keys.
One setup step: redemption happens on your redeem page, so you (or your engineer) run a small redemption endpoint that hands out your keys — we ship a drop-in starter kit + SDK for it. A listing goes live once that endpoint passes a quick link test, so plan for a short integration before your first sale.
Optional layers on top: creator-attribution for streamers and Discord giveaways, and webhook delivery for purchase events into your existing CRM.
Stolen-card keys get laundered through grey-market resellers — publishers eat the chargebacks and see none of the money. FlipKey.gg gives you that resale reach without the laundering: every license is use-bound (it can't be resold or flipped), and every sale is a direct, identity-attached transaction you can trace back to the exact buyer and payment. G2A's reach, without G2A's chargeback problem.
No monthly fees. No setup fees. No listing fees. FlipKey.gg gets paid only when you sell.
Per sale: FlipKey.gg's 6% platform fee — and just 3% on items $5 and under — plus standard payment processing. On a typical game that's around 10% all-in, a fraction of the 30% the big platforms take. Crypto checkout is cheaper still: about 7.5% all-in on a $60 game, and only 4.5% on a $1 item — micro-content pricing no major storefront can touch.
You'll need a key station. FlipKey.gg never holds your keys. They live in a key station: a small service that hands one key to one verified buyer at redemption. Every listing needs one, and there are three ways to run it:
Our partner GameLicense.org runs it for you at yourstudio.gamelicense.org. No server, set up in about a minute. Founding price, paid upfront and billed by GameLicense, not FlipKey.gg. Key redemptions only. Export your keys and move to your own station any time.
The full starter kit on a server you own, paid to DigitalOcean. One command, about 10 minutes, no Linux experience needed. No key cap. Key Station Plus is available, custom work required: your game backend has to grant the items.
Already have a backend? Run the Publisher Starter anywhere, or add the Redeem SDK to what you have. You only pay your own hosting.
Key Station Plus is for studios whose game backend can put an item straight into a player's account, no key involved. It unlocks freebies on license sales, items you sell, creator giveaways and watch-drops. No extra charge. Plain license sales and beta passes don't need it.
Turning on Plus: set a webhook URL in your dashboard, and have your backend handle the signed item-grant event and acknowledge it (the Watch-Drop SDK does both in a few lines). Then run the Plus test from the Key Station page: we send a test grant, your server acks it, and Plus turns on. It needs your own install; hosted stations handle key redemptions only.
Tell us about your studio. We'll set up your publisher account and issue your API credentials, and our starter kit + SDK get your redemption integration live. You'll sign in to your dashboard with a wallet — if you don't have one, Waypoint creates one in seconds, no crypto experience needed.
