How Major stickers work now: tokens, not capsules
Valve changed how Major items are sold at IEM Cologne 2026. If Singapore keeps the same system, this is how it works:
- No sticker capsules. Every team and autograph sticker is bought directly in the in-game Major Shop.
- Tokens. The shop uses its own currency. At Cologne the smallest bundle was 100 tokens for $0.99, topped up at checkout when your balance is too low.
- Dynamic prices. A sticker gets more expensive when many people buy it and cheaper when few do. Prices update in batches, with a warning before each update, and token prices are the same worldwide. If a sticker you bought drops by 25 tokens or more within 24 hours, you get the difference back in tokens a week later.
- Four qualities: Paper, Holo, Foil and Gold. Gold stickers are the ones the Souvenir-O-Matic applies.
- Souvenir-O-Matic. Turns a normal or Souvenir quality weapon you own into a Souvenir with the gold team, autograph and map stickers of a finished match and one player from it. Existing stickers are removed, the token price depends on the weapon's rarity and the demand for those stickers, and the change can't be undone.
- Pick'Em. With a Viewer Pass, Pick'Em predictions upgrade the Major coin from Bronze to Silver, Gold and Diamond, and each upgrade paid out 300 tokens at Cologne.
- Where the money goes. Half of the Major Shop and Viewer Pass revenue is shared between the tournament organizer, the teams and the players, and since Cologne the teams' share depends on where they finish.
