CSFloat

Float-aware marketplace plus a public inspect API.

Skinport

EU-based marketplace with a clean public API.

VS

Both are top-tier CS2 marketplaces, but they answer different questions. CSFloat optimises for float-conscious P2P trades at the lowest published seller fee in the market. Skinport optimises for EU sellers who want clean SEPA cash-out at scale. The right pick is mostly about where you live and what you're selling.

Buff163

Largest CS2 marketplace by volume — Chinese, but trade-friendly.

VS

Buff163 is the global volume leader for CS2 — its prices set the floor most third-party tools reference. CSFloat is the largest English-speaking P2P marketplace with the lowest published seller fee. The choice depends on whether you can stomach Buff's region and UI friction for the access to volume.

DMarket

Marketplace with public read API and HMAC-authed write API.

VS

CSFloat is the largest float-conscious P2P CS2 marketplace; DMarket is a smaller marketplace with the most complete public API in the space. The real question isn't which is better — it's whether you're a trader who wants to sell skins, or a builder who wants to read and write listings programmatically.

CS.Money

Skin-for-skin swap marketplace — upgrade or downgrade without leaving Steam.

VS

CSFloat is a P2P marketplace — you list, a buyer takes, you get paid in cash. CS.Money is a swap-style trader — you give them skins, they give you skins (or balance). Both end with you in a different position than you started, but the path and the outputs are very different.

Skinport

EU-based marketplace with a clean public API.

VS

These are the three CS2 marketplaces most serious traders end up using together. CSFloat for English-speaking float-conscious P2P trades, Skinport for clean EU cash-out, Buff163 for the deepest global liquidity. Picking one means picking your trade-off — most people end up rotating between two of the three depending on what they're selling.

CS.Money

Skin-for-skin swap marketplace — upgrade or downgrade without leaving Steam.

VS

Three very different paths to "I don't want this skin anymore". CSFloat is a P2P marketplace — list, wait, get cash. CS.Money swaps skin-for-skin instantly from their inventory. SkinSwap gives you site balance instantly that you withdraw to crypto or fiat. Different workflows, different take-home rates, different speeds.

SkinSwap

Instant-trade marketplace — sell skins for site balance, cash, or crypto.

VS

Three completely different routes to 'I want out of this skin'. CSFloat is the lowest-fee P2P marketplace — you wait for a buyer, you get cash. SkinSwap quotes an instant sell price upfront and pays site balance. CS.Money swaps your skin for another from their inventory, no waiting. Each trades off speed, take-home rate, and what you receive at the end.
