GamersGate
Introduction
GamersGate is a digital store for PC games, selling official keys for Steam, the EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Epic Games and Rockstar, along with some DRM-free downloads. It works directly with publishers, from indie to AAA, rather than hosting third-party sellers. It is operated by Gamersgate AB in Stockholm, Sweden.
GamersGate started in April 2006 as Paradox on Demand, a download store run by the game publisher Paradox Interactive, and took the GamersGate name later that year. It is no longer run by Paradox.

- Official keys from publishers

Buying on GamersGate
You need a GamersGate account to buy, and you can pay by card or PayPal. Some orders go through a manual review first. Once paid, the key or download appears in your account.
Sales are final. Buyers in the EU can cancel within 14 days, but only if the key or download has not been delivered yet.
