Play any of the participating Steam Trading Cards games to get trading cards. Up to half of a card set is dropped through game play, while the other half must be obtained through trading or through the Steam Community Market. Once a user collects an entire set of cards, the cards may be crafted into a game badge. Badges are tied to user accounts and are shown on profile pages. Crafting game badges earns tradable items like emoticons, profile backgrounds, and coupons. A user can level up badges by collecting the set again and crafting it again.
