Our take
These two sites answer different needs. CS.MONEY started as a trade bot and now also runs a peer-to-peer Market. CSFloat is a peer-to-peer market only.
Selling for cash. The CS.MONEY Market charges sellers 5%, or 3% on items priced $1,000 and up, and charges no withdrawal fee. CSFloat charges sellers 2%, then a withdrawal fee from 2.5% that falls with sales volume. On a 100 dollar sale that is 95 kept on CS.MONEY against about 95.55 on CSFloat at the entry tier, and CSFloat's edge grows as your volume rises. Try your own prices in the fee calculator.
Trading and instant sell. CS.MONEY lets you swap skins with its bots or sell instantly. Trade mode costs a 7% selling commission, plus up to 13% on items that are still trade-locked. CSFloat has no bot trading, but offers auctions, offers and buy orders.
Payout limits. CS.MONEY pays Market earnings to Visa cards or PayPal, depending on your region, after KYC. Sale money is held for 7 days and withdrawals are capped at $1,000 per day. CSFloat pays through Stripe by bank transfer, debit card or USDC from $5. On both sites only sale earnings can be withdrawn, not deposits.
Deposits. CS.MONEY takes cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, crypto, BLIK and Pix. CSFloat takes cards, ACH, iDEAL and crypto.
Account safety. CSFloat has its own 2FA with recovery codes. Our CS.MONEY record shows no 2FA of its own, so your Steam Guard matters more there. See how to secure your Steam account.
Pick CSFloat to sell CS2 skins for the most cash. Pick CS.MONEY to swap skins quickly or pay with PayPal or local methods. Details are in the CS.MONEY review and CSFloat review.
