Short answer: no. Buying a gift card here does not require an identity document, a selfie, or a proof of address.
Longer answer, and the part most pages in this niche skip: that is not the same thing as anonymous, and anyone telling you otherwise is either confused or selling you something. This page is what we actually ask for, why, and where the limits are.
What KYC means
KYC — Know Your Customer — is the identity verification that regulated financial businesses are required to perform. Exchanges do it because they convert between crypto and government money. Banks do it. Payment processors do it.
It usually means a government ID, a photo of your face, and sometimes a utility bill.
What we ask for
An email address and a password. That is the account.
We do not ask for an ID document, a selfie, a phone number, a date of birth or an address to buy a gift card.
The reason is structural rather than generous: we sell digital goods and take crypto for them. We are not converting your crypto into cash, not holding a balance for you, and not moving money on your behalf — the activities that pull a business into identity-verification obligations. A shop that sells you a Steam code is closer to a shop than to a bank.
Why there is an account at all
Because your codes have to live somewhere.
A gift-card code is not like a physical parcel. If the email fails, or you close the tab before it arrives, or you mistype your own address, the code still exists and you still paid for it. The account is where you get it back — My orders holds every code you have bought.
It also means we can tell you apart from someone claiming to be you when a code goes wrong.
The honest part: this is not anonymity
Three things are true at once, and shops in this niche tend to mention only the first:
- We do not check who you are. True.
- You have an account with your email on it. Also true. If you are thinking about privacy, that is the fact that matters, and it does not go away because nobody asked for a passport.
- The payment is on a public blockchain. Every transaction you send is permanently visible to anyone who looks, linked to the wallet it came from. If that wallet is one you funded from an exchange that did KYC you, the chain of records exists whether or not we hold any part of it.
So the accurate description is no identity verification, not anonymous. If genuine privacy is what you are after, the questions worth asking are about which wallet you pay from and which email you sign up with — not about whether the shop asked for your ID.
We would rather tell you that than let you assume something that is not true.
When more might be needed
Rarely, and not as a routine step. Payment providers and card suppliers impose their own fraud rules, and an order can be held for review when its pattern looks like the fraud those rules exist to catch — unusual volume, repeated failed attempts, or a supplier flagging a specific transaction.
If that ever happens on your order, we say so and we tell you what would resolve it. We do not silently hold funds. And it is the exception, not the process.
What we do with what we hold
The account holds your email, your order history and the codes you bought. That is it.
We do not need your name, and so we do not ask for it. Less data on file is less to lose — which is not a hypothetical concern in this industry, where the largest player in the category disclosed a breach exposing customer emails, wallet addresses and IP addresses in March 2026. The safest record is the one that was never collected.
The specifics of what is stored and for how long are in the privacy policy.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account to browse?
No. Browsing and prices are open. Signing in is only needed to place an order, because that is where the codes are delivered.
Can I buy without giving any email at all?
No. There would be nowhere to send the code and no way to recover it if delivery failed. Every shop that delivers a code delivers it somewhere.
Do you sell my email to anyone?
No. See the privacy policy.
Is buying gift cards with crypto legal?
Buying digital goods with crypto is ordinary commerce in most places, but crypto rules differ sharply by country and a few prohibit crypto payments outright. That is your local question, not ours to answer for you — check what applies where you live.
Will you ever ask for my ID?
Not for a normal purchase. If a supplier or payment provider flags a specific order for review, we will tell you directly rather than leaving it silent. It is an exception, not a step in the flow.
Why do some sites advertise "100% anonymous"?
Because it converts. It is also not true of any shop that emails you a code, including this one. The email alone makes it not anonymous, and the blockchain records the payment regardless.
