[Groupees] New features: revealing products, trading products, and trading bundles
Hi everyone, cyanic here with an update on the latest new major features recently deployed to Groupees.
Revealing products
As a part of the updated trading system, products must be revealed before you can download or get the keys from them. To reveal a product, click on the product's "Reveal this product" button. Note that once revealed, the product cannot be gifted or traded. You can reveal all products of a bundle by clicking on the "Reveal all products" button in the header of an expanded bundle. Revealing any product will prevent its parent bundle from being tradeable or giftable. Note that in the near future, revealing a product will also reveal the keys it contains, so no extra keys of a game than paid for are going into the trading system. Existing keys will not be affected.
Trading products
You can now trade and gift entire products the same way you can gift a key. Trading a product will also trade out all of its keys and downloads. On the trades tab on your purchases page, there is a new filter option for products. Take a look and see how products appear. Important: do not list coin products (those that show up under your bundles tab rather than your coins tab) for trading, as those are placeholders and will not grant your trading partner a coin. They will disappear some time in the future. If you want to list a coin, please do it from your coins tab.
Trading bundles
You can now also trade entire bundles, and send them as gifts. There is no filter for bundles on the trades tab right now, but you can still use the search filter to find them. You can list a bundle for trading or gifting as long as you haven't set any of its components for trading or gifting.
Third party keys
With the update, things work slightly differently. Now when you list a key, it is the product that it belongs to that is being listed instead of the key itself, so the information from the "trading products" section applies. Also, with this update, third party keys can now be edited and deleted. Keys will be masked so you know which one you're dealing with.
