What is PirateSwap?
PirateSwap is a skin trading website allowing you to trade CS2 skins. Our website makes trading easy, letting you swap the skins you don’t want for your dream loadout.
What’s required to trade on PirateSwap?
To trade skins on PirateSwap you need to be logged in, confirm your email, and give us your Trade URL and have an active Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator.
How to Trade?
It’s really simple. Go to the Trade screen, pick the items you want to get rid of on the left, and the items you want in exchange on the right. Once you start finalizing the trade, you'll receive a trade offer for the item(s) you're selling. The first offer you’ll be receiving won’t give you any skins back. Don’t worry, this is normal, as we need to receive your skin in order to complete the trading process.
When accepted, you’ll receive one or more trade offers from our bots with the items you bought. Remember to make sure that the bots you’re trading with have the same account information as the trading screen.

The Steam Trade Lock is a security feature Steam uses to prevent scammers from stealing your items. After trading or buying any item, you have to wait 8 days to trade again.
Where can I check an Item’s status?
Hover over any item and click the arrows to Expand Details. Once you do that, you’ll see the item’s float, wear-level, rarity and trade status.
Tradeable items can be withdrawn immediately.
Untradeable items will have to wait until their trade lock expires.
Can I sell Trade Locked items on PirateSwap?
Since our bot has to make a trade to credit your account, if you want to sell a Trade Locked item you will have to wait for it to expire.
