   you need to have 7 or more completed giveaways on steamgifts (You gave away 7 or more gifts of reduced or full value)

Gifter membership

1. Gifters create giveaways for group members.

2. Gifters can only enter 'open to gifters' giveaways and only IF they have a +7 gift difference in group. screenshot check yours here No description => not open to gifters!

3. Be at least level 3 on steamgifts

4. Have at least a give/sent ratio of 1:1 in numbers ignoring "no value games sent
   4.1 If you have many recent giveaways of asset flip or similar games that are overpriced and just not yet set to zero value, you will probably be denied from being a gifter. If your only giveaways for UL7 are "overpriced trash" every couple of months, please change the quality of your giveaways or leave the group. Updated rule Jan 2024.

5. Make at least one GA per week in case your in-group gift difference is under +7 until you reach that mark
   5.1 Create at least one group (exclusive or share) group giveaway every 6 months. If you create a lot of giveaways in general, but only exactly one UL7 giveaway each 6 months, please post a link in the giveaway thread on Steam, easier to find your last giveaway.

6. Must keep an in-group VALUE difference bigger than 0

7. Mention you want to be a gifter when you post below.

8. After you are in the group, check the threads & announcements (even the old ones) on Steam.

Group giveaway guide - when you create a giveaway and someone wins DON'T deliver gift until:

1. Check your winner has 7 or less wins on their profile.
   (unless it was open to gifters / multi group giveaway and the winner was from another group/whitelist)
2. Check your winner is still a group member by visiting their STEAM profile. Like this
   If you request a new winner, because the winner is no longer in the group, ask for a screenshot first, so you have proof when he/she left the group.
3. Make sure your winner has the gifts activated in their account.

When its time for you to leave the group:

1. Leave all ongoing group giveaways you're a part of.
2. Sync your steamgifts profile.

• Can I enter to win a gift for my friend / family / brother / cousin / dog / pet gerbil?
  Gifts have to be activated in your account. This is a steamgifts rule.
  If your friends want to join, have them apply here.

• You don't have to enter all group giveaways - Remember you only have up to 8 gifts so choose wisely!
  Its actually much preferred if you only enter giveaways for games you actually want.

• Can non gifters create giveaways for the group?
  Regular members can also create group giveaways for each other. Actually this is encouraged.

• Can I join the group as both gifter as normal member?
  You can join the group as both, or become a gifter once you have won the gift quota.

• I have more than 8 wins but not all wins are from the group, do I still have to leave?
  Yes, the win count refers to your steamgifts account, it is not group specific.

• I have to leave the group but still have ongoing group giveaways I am part of, can I still win those?
  No, if you have to leave please exit all ongoing group giveaways you are a part of.
  We get very angry when we have to perform dozens of re-rolls on people that left / were kicked from group days ago and still "win" group giveaways.

• I am a gifter but have less than 8 wins on steamgifts, can I enter group giveaways for normal members?
  yes, once you reach 8 or more wins you become a full 'gifter'. Until then you can enter all 'normal' group giveaways.

• For gifters: Only enter group GAs, if the GA is "open to gifters" and your gift difference is >= +7. Please refrain from using UL7 GAs to store points.
