What is the STEAMPOWERED charge on my statement?

STEAMPOWERED is Steam (Valve). Steam game purchase, DLC, wallet funds, or in-game transaction charge. If you did not authorize it, start with Steam (Valve)’s own Steam (Valve) billing help before a bank dispute — the biller can show the exact purchase and refund faster than a chargeback resolves.

What to do next

  1. Check the charge in Steam (Valve)’s own records first: Steam (Valve) billing help. A shared household login is the most common answer.
  2. To stop future charges, use Manage or cancel Steam (Valve). Cancellation stops renewals; it rarely refunds past ones on its own.
  3. If nobody in your household recognizes it after checking the biller's own records, dispute the charge with your card issuer and ask the biller to close whatever account it is tied to.
