How to change Steam region to Turkey or any other region?
A lot of people think the process of region changing is difficult, but in reality it isn't. All you need to have is a credit card that has been issued in the country you wish to change your steam region, and VPN from that country.
What are benefits of region change?
The main advantage we care about are much lower game prices! For example in Turkey as a result of mega inflation games costs 100x less than in other countries. For example, Phasmophobia in US region costs $13.99, but in Turkey less than 1.23$ or MX Bikes costs 34.99$, and 3$ in Turkish region.
Can I change my region with VPN?
Most articles on the internet will tell you" yes you can", but the truth is you won't be able to buy ANY GAMES, even with gift cards! The option to pay with gift cards will only be possible after making first transaction with a credit card from a particular country. With VPN you will change your region temporarily and after switch it off, the region will be back to normal. That's why you need a credit card to change your region permanently.
Will Revolut, Wise or other multi-currency virtual credit cards providers work?
Unfortunately, they won't. Revolut, Wise or other similar services offer multi-currency credit cards which work only if you physically go to a specific country, e.g. for shopping in the mall. Steam does not check whether the card supports a given currency (TL or ARS), but checks the origin of the card, in which country from which bank it was issued!
Every credit, prepaid or debit card in the world has unique 6 digit code called "BIN" which informs where the card was made. For Revolut disposable cards is "535456". After checking it on bincodes.com, we can see that those cards are created in Ukraine so it is not suitable for changing the steam region to turkey.
So where should I buy a card then?
If you are planning changing your steam region to Turkey, you can buy from us. Our Turkish prepaid credit cards cost 7.99$, it's a fair price compared to how much you can save on games. Every card we sell is 100% fresh and unused, they were tested by us and hundreds of our customers.

What VPN should I use?
Choosing a good VPN is crucial because some VPN providers have servers that are blacklisted. Steam can detect it and your card will be declined during purchase. Here is the list of good VPNs and blacklisted ones:
Good VPNs: Ivacy, Pure VPN, Windscriber
Blacklisted: NordVPN (DO NOT USE)
How would I buy games after the region change?
After changing the region, steam blocks your previous payment methods, and you can only buy games with steam gift cards. Any other payment method than gift cards will revert your steam region!
