Steam Retail Vouchers To Be A Thing - You Might Be Able To Buy Steam Vouchers At Retail Soon


A source within Gamestop US sent Kotaku an image purportedly of a Steam Voucher that will be on sale from May 15. Further evidence points t hat a recent Steam beta has added a redeem Steam Wallet Voucher option which should allow users to redeem the Steam Vouchers they bought at a store to their Steam Wallet. This is a major shift for online digital distribution as Steam will then have a huge advantage for those that do not have an online payment method. Not completely revolutionary over here in Asia as we've been having similar vouchers for Blizzard games and MMO's. While this news seems to point that at least North American retailers will be having such coupons, I would rule this out for our region. Maybe in the near future we might see Steam Retail Vouchers in our store shelves. What do you think? Would you purchase Steam Retail Vouchers? A pretty handy gift for a gamer don't you think?
