Welcome to the definitive **Steam Account Worth Calculator**. Determine the estimated monetary value of your entire Steam library and inventory based on purchase price and digital assets, not just market price.
Steam Account Worth Calculator
Please enter at least three valid, non-negative numbers for Games Owned, Average Price, and Inventory Value.
Calculation Steps
Steam Account Worth Calculator Formula
Worth = (Total Games Owned × Avg. Purchase Price) + Market Inventory Value
$$\text{Worth} = (\text{G} \times \text{A}) + \text{I}$$
Formula Sources: Steam Pricing, Steam Market Data
Variables Explained
- Total Games Owned (G): The total number of titles in your Steam library.
- Average Purchase Price Per Game (A): The estimated average price you paid per game. This accounts for sales and bundles (e.g., $15 instead of $60).
- Market Inventory Value (I): The total current market value of all tradable items (skins, cards, cases) in your Steam Inventory.
- Total Hours Played (H): An optional input used to assess your time investment, not monetary worth.

What is Steam Account Worth Calculator?
The Steam Account Worth Calculator is a utility designed to provide an objective estimate of the monetary value tied up in a user’s Steam library and associated digital inventory. Unlike simple automated tools that scrape current storefront prices (which often miss sales history and regional pricing), this calculator uses your estimated average purchase price to give a more realistic “replacement cost” valuation.
The calculated “worth” is typically defined as the sum of the estimated library purchase value and the liquid market value of all tradable items (such as CS:GO skins, Dota 2 items, or trading cards). This value is crucial for insurance purposes, personal financial tracking, or simply satisfying curiosity about the size of one’s digital collection.
How to Calculate Steam Account Worth (Example)
- Identify Total Games (G): Check your Steam library. Let’s assume you own 300 games.
- Estimate Average Price (A): Reflecting many sales purchases, you estimate your average spend per game is $10.00.
- Determine Inventory Value (I): Check the Steam Community Market to see the total value of your tradable inventory, which is $50.00.
- Calculate Library Value: Multiply G by A: $300 \times 10.00 = \$3,000.00$.
- Add Inventory Value: Add the library value and inventory value: $\$3,000.00 + \$50.00 = \$3,050.00$.
- Final Worth: The estimated Steam Account Worth is $3,050.00.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is this the same as the Steam “Price Checker” websites?
No. Standard price checkers often use the current *retail* price. This calculator uses your *estimated purchase price*, which is generally lower due to sales, providing a more accurate reflection of your actual investment.
Does the worth calculator account for my hours played?
Monetary worth is calculated independently of hours played (H). However, the calculator displays hours played to show the “Time Investment Value” – how much entertainment value (or cost per hour) you received from your investment.
Can I use this value to sell my account?
Selling Steam accounts is against the Steam Subscriber Agreement and is not recommended. This calculation is for personal estimation, insurance, or curiosity only.
What if I don’t know the exact average price per game?
Estimate conservatively. If you buy mostly bundles and major sales, use a lower average (e.g., $5-$10). If you buy most games at launch, use a higher average (e.g., $30-$40). The accuracy of the result depends heavily on the accuracy of your input A.
