Anyone else struggling with gifting games to friends in other regions?

Anyone else struggling with gifting games to friends in other regions?

I’m from Ukraine, and I wanted to gift a game to my friend in Europe. Because of regional pricing the game costs more for him, so I decided to send him a Steam gift card for exactly the price of the game.

But Steam only lets you choose from 4 preset amounts. And those amounts are in UAH (Ukrainian hryvnia). To send him ~60€ I would have to send the biggest possible gift card four times. Super annoying.

So I made a small Chrome extension. It simply adds a custom amount field on the Steam Wallet top-up and gift card page. Now you can enter any sum you want.

It’s been working great for me so far. No more sending multiple gift cards or guessing amounts.

If you have the same problem with regional gifting or top-ups - feel free to check it out:

Just sharing because it solved a real headache for me.
