Can you check your CS2 Trust Factor?

Can you check your Trust Factor in CS2?

No. Valve's support page says: "Currently there is no way to check your Trust Factor." Valve also does not publish the full list of factors, because the list changes and it does not want players optimising for it.

What Valve does say is that Trust Factor is based on your past experience in Counter-Strike 2 and on Steam, and that a linked phone number for Prime and your CS2 rank are among the factors.

What do Trust Factor checker sites show?

Sites that show a Trust Factor score from 0 to 100 compute their own number from public data such as account age, hours, and bans. Each site weighs these differently, so the same account gets different scores on different sites. None of them can see the value Valve uses.

Never sign in to a site to "check" or "boost" Trust Factor. Nothing on a website can change it, and a fake Steam login page is a common way accounts get stolen.

The only real signal: the party warning

Before a Competitive match, Prime players are warned if someone in their lobby has a lower Trust Factor. Valve lists two messages: the experience "may be slightly impacted" or "will be significantly affected" because that player's Trust Factor is lower.

In a party, matchmaking uses the lowest Trust Factor of anyone in it, so one low-trust friend lowers the whole party's match quality.

How to improve your Trust Factor

1. Link a phone number to your Steam account for Prime. Valve recommends this directly.
2. Keep playing CS2 and other Steam games normally. Valve says the more you play, the more information the system has.
3. Play fair and avoid griefing. Valve says the only way to improve Trust Factor is to be a positive member of the CS2 and Steam community.
4. If your matches seem consistently poor, Valve asks you to email CSGOTeamFeedback at valvesoftware.com with the subject "Trust Factor Feedback" and your Steam ID.

How to check the public history behind an account

1. Copy the Steam profile link or Steam64 ID of the account.
2. Paste it into the search box above.
3. Read account age, Steam level, games owned, hours, bans, and Premier rating on one page.
4. Remember that a new or private account is not automatically low-trust: Valve says players with a positive Steam history will likely start CS2 with a high Trust Factor.

Where this data comes from

Account age, Steam level, name, and profile visibility come from Valve's official Steam Web API and the public Steam Community profile. AIMTRACER caches them for up to 10 minutes, and the Steam level for up to an hour.

CS2 hours come from the Steam Web API's owned games list. Steam only returns it when the player's game details are public, so a private library shows as unavailable rather than zero. It is cached for up to 15 minutes.

VAC, game, and trade ban state comes from the Steam Web API's player bans endpoint, the same record behind the red ban notice on Steam profiles. Steam reports it even when the rest of the profile is private, and it is fetched fresh on each lookup.

Leetify ratings, the Premier rating, and recent matches come from Leetify's public profile API and only appear when the player's Leetify profile is public. AIMTRACER shows Leetify's numbers as reported and does not calculate its own ratings. They are cached for about 2 minutes.

Every lookup reads these sources live and keeps the answer only in a short cache. When a source is private or does not answer, the page says so instead of guessing, and no stat is presented as proof of cheating.
