Steam is one of the most popular digital platforms for purchasing games for many gamers, and for good reason. With its many social features and the sheer number of games available for purchase, it’s easy to see why Steam has so many users.
If you’ve spent enough time on Steam, you might wonder how much money you’ve spent on all of these games over the years. Luckily, Valve makes it easy for Steam users to access this amount via the browser and desktop apps.
How do I find out how much money I’ve spent on Steam?
To check how much money you’ve spent on Steam, all you need to do is access a number of support options via the Steam website or the official Steam app. You can start the process without logging in, but you must be logged in.
Here are step-by-step instructions on how to check how much money you’ve spent on Steam:
Click “Help,” then click “Steam Support” if you’re in the Steam app, or “Support” if you’re on the website.
Click on “My Account”.
Click on “Steam account details”.
Scroll down a bit and click on “External funds used”.
Check the “TotalSpend” amount.
Understanding the Borrowed Funds Used table in Steam
You’ll notice several different lines of text, each with its own time, amount, and currency. Here you can find the explanations for each type of external capital:
- TotalSpend indicates how much you’ve spent purchasing games or adding funds to your Steam Wallet, but you’ll notice that there are also three other types of funds: OldSpend, PWSpend, and ChinaSpend.
- OldSpend shows how much you spent on Steam before April 17, 2015. That was the date Steam introduced “Restricted User Account,” which limits access to community and social features to those who haven’t spent at least $5.
- PWSpend lists funds spent through Perfect World if you linked your CS:GO/CS2 or Dota 2 account. “PW” here stands for Perfect World.
- ChinaSpend Finally, everything you spend on Steam China takes into account what is measured in the Chinese currency RMB.
The data is not always up to date; but you at least get a reasonably good overview of how much you’ve spent over the years buying games and add-ons via Steam.
If the value you see does not match your purchase history, then the values are not currently stored in Valve’s database, but you can always find a full list of your purchases on Steam.
