FAQ
What are the requirements for making a GSLT?
Valve has some guidelines on what accounts are able to create a Game Server Login Token:
- Your Steam account must not be currently community banned or locked.
- Your Steam account must not be limited.
- Your Steam account must have a qualifying registered phone.
- Your Steam account must own the game for which you are creating a game server account.
- Your Steam account may create 1000 game server accounts.
Can I get a GSLT Ban?
In the past, Valve has token banned server owners that have used plugins that grant users special weapon skins, knives, or ranks. If Valve token bans you, this means you can no longer host servers from your account, and you will be temporarily banned from Competitive mode. We strongly suggest you view Valve's Terms of Service to see what is and isn't allowed.
If your GSLT is banned, then you will need to use another Steam account to generate tokens in the future.
