- Instant cashout for Rust skins
Tradeit lets you sell Rust skins instantly instead of waiting for a buyer to accept your offer. Select the items you want to sell, choose the instant sell option, confirm the trade in Steam, and your payout is processed as soon as the trade is completed.
If you prefer to spend your earnings on new cosmetics instead of withdrawing cash, you can use your balance in our Rust store to pick new Rust skins.
- Secure transactions
All trades run through our bots and the official Steam API, with automatic checks plus manual reviews on suspicious activity. This reduces the risk of scams, chargebacks, or fake buyers, so you can focus on selling your Rust skins safely.
If you run into account or payment issues on the Steam side, you can follow our step-by-step guide on how to contact Steam Support to get help from Valve.
- Recommended prices
Pricing your Rust skins by hand can be time-consuming. Tradeit suggests a price for every item based on current market data, so you can quickly see a fair value for each skin.
You can accept the suggested price or set your own amount. If you want to cash out faster, you can also choose to sell Rust skins for a specific percentage below the recommended price to make your offer more competitive.
- Low fees
Fees on Tradeit are transparent and usually range from 0% to 30% of the item's sale value, depending on the skin and current promotions. There are no hidden fees, so you always see what you will receive before you confirm the sale.
You can also add "tradeit.gg" to your Steam profile name to get a 3% discount on the fee we charge when you sell Rust skins.
- Multiple cash-out options
When your Rust skins are sold, you can cash out using several payout methods, such as crypto, bank transfer, debit card, or Trade balance. Choose what fits you best and withdraw your money when you are ready.
If you keep your balance in Tradeit, you can later use it to buy more items, upgrade your loadout, or wait for better deals.
- Top rated on Trustpilot
When you sell Rust skins for real money, you need a site you can trust. Tradeit has thousands of user reviews and a high rating on Trustpilot, which shows that real players have successfully sold and cashed out their skins with us.
If you would rather swap items instead of cashing out, you can also trade Rust skins with other players through our trading page.
