    You give them a cut of the turnover on their site(steam). Important distinction. A developer can generate steam keys for free and sell them elswhere, as long as the price is the same as on steam.

      Wait really? Are they just ok with losing the cut from sales?

        Yes although they are being sued by developers for not being allowed to sell the keys at a lower price.

          As I understand it the issue is actually that people weren’t allowed to sell their game for less on other platforms, but they weren’t necessarily trying to sell Steam keys.
