Not all games on Steam have trading cards: its up to the game's developers to decide if they want to participate or not. If a game does participate, it will have 5-15 cards in the set. These cards appear in 2 forms, standard and foil, of which the latter is rarer. When you collect all of the cards, you can craft them into a badge.

To acquire a card in the current state of the Beta, one simply has to own the game and run it. Running the game in title screen/main menu is enough for cards to drop, one doesn't need to play the game at all to get cards, you just have to have the game running on Steam.

To get cards in free to play games such as Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2, you have to have a "premium" account, and you must have gotten a premium account before the Steam Trading card beta.

==What is a premium account?==
 
 
[[Category:Content]]
 
 
If you have spent over 9€ before the Trading Card Beta in the Dota 2 store then you will have premium in Dota 2.
 
 
If you have spent over 2€ before the Trading Card Beta in the Mann. Co (Team Fortress 2) store then you will have premium in Team Fortress 2. This also applies for people who bought TF2 before it went free to play.
 
 
If you have premium before the beta, you can expand how many drops you get by purchasing another item in the in-game store for 9€, for every 9€ you spend you will get another card drop. If you did not get premium before the beta, you can however get cards drops by purchasing items in the in game store for 9€ per card. In other words you will get one card drop for every 9€ you spend in the in-game store, regardless of if you got premium before or after the beta started.
 
 
If you get premium after the beta started you will however not get the 4 card drops that users that had premium before the beta would have gotten.
 
 
The ''Upgrade to Premium Gift'' is still avaliable for any Free to Play Team Fortress 2 player that still wishes to buy it. [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Upgrade_to_Premium_Gift Link to Wiki]

Not all games on Steam have trading cards: its up to the game's developers to decide if they want to participate or not. If a game does participate, it will have 5-15 cards in the set.
