[h3]- About Steam Gift Cards[/h3]
Steam Gift Cards are in the currency of the country of purchase.
The Eternal Return team is located in South Korea, so Gift Cards sent to our event winners will be based on Korean Won (KRW).
The amount you will receive is converted by Steam to your currency according to the current conversion rate from KRW. This is out of our hands and is Steam policy.
For example, if sent a KRW 10,000 Steam Gift Card, you will receive approximately $8.50 USD.

[Note] Steam provides Gift Cards in KRW as follows:
  • KRW 5,000
  • KRW 10,000
  • KRW 25,000
  • KRW 50,000
  • KRW 100,000
