Skin.Club
Skin.Club is a site where users pay to open cases of Counter-Strike skins. It is unlicensed gambling and popular with teenagers.
Unlicensed; reaches under-18s
This brand is not licensed in the markets we cover (or only in part of them), so it has no Wayfinder Score. If you play there, you do not get the protections a local licence brings: limits, self-exclusion and a regulator to complain to.

How it works
On Skin.Club you pay to open a virtual case and receive a random skin. It is usually worth less than the case cost and occasionally far more. There are also case battles, where the winner takes the other players' items. Skins can be sold for real money.
The site is promoted by YouTubers and streamers, often with codes for free cases.
Where it stands
Skin.Club holds no gambling licence in the markets we cover (US, UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Ontario) and does not check age with an identity document. Valve, which owns Steam, bans the use of accounts for gambling.
No regulator oversees the odds or the payouts.
Advice for parents
Look through the purchase history of your child's Steam account and switch on Family View. Explain that the wins shown in videos are often paid promotion.
