Steam XP Table: How Much XP Each Steam Level Takes

This Steam XP table shows the total XP, the XP per level and the card sets for Steam levels 1 to 6100: from level 0, level 10 takes 1,000 XP, level 50 takes 15,000 XP and level 100 takes 55,000 XP. Every card set crafted into a badge gives 100 XP, so sets = XP ÷ 100.

How Much XP You Need for Steam Level 10, 50 and 100

The short answer, counting from level 0: Steam level 10 takes 1,000 XP (10 card sets), level 50 takes 15,000 XP (150 sets) and level 100 takes 55,000 XP (550 sets). The table below adds bigger milestones up to level 1000.

All totals here start at level 0. Already have a level? Subtract its total from your target's: level 100 to 200 is 210,000 − 55,000 = 155,000 XP, or 1,550 sets. For any other pair of levels, use the Steam level calculator.

How Steam XP per Level Is Calculated

Steam raises the price of a level by 100 XP every 10 levels: the first ten levels are 100 XP each, levels 11–20 are 200 XP each, 21–30 are 300 XP each, and levels 91–100 are already 1,000 XP each. So every ten levels cost 1,000 XP (10 sets) more than the ten before.

Example, level 25: the first ten levels take 1,000 XP, the next ten take 2,000 XP, and five more levels at 300 XP add 1,500 XP. That's 4,500 XP in total, or 45 sets.

The general formula: total XP = 500 × t × (t + 1) + 100 × r × (t + 1), where t is the number of full tens in the level and r is the remainder. For level 100, t = 10 and r = 0: 500 × 10 × 11 = 55,000 XP.

Full Steam XP Table: Levels 1–200

Every Steam level from 1 to 200. "Total XP" and "Total sets" count from level 0 (one set = 100 XP); "XP to next level" is what one level up from that row costs, for example 200 XP at level 10 and 1,100 XP at level 100.

Steam XP Table: Levels 210–1000, Every 10 Levels

From level 210 to 1000 the table goes in steps of 10, with the same columns. Every level inside a ten costs the same, so a row's "XP to next level" holds until the next row, and levels in between are easy to work out: level 255 = 325,000 XP (level 250) + 5 × 2,600 = 338,000 XP.

Steam XP Table: Levels 1100–6100, Every 100 Levels

Above level 1000 the table goes in steps of 100, up to 6100. The price still rises by 100 XP every 10 levels: going from 1100 to 1101 costs 11,100 XP (111 sets), and from 6100 to 6101 it's 61,100 XP. For levels between rows, use the Steam level calculator; the newest level badge, a crown for 6100–6199, and the Steam level badge for every hundred levels are shown on a separate page.

How to Get Steam XP Fast: Craft Badges From Card Sets

Most Steam XP comes from game badges: each complete trading card set you craft adds one badge level and 100 XP right away. A regular game badge goes up to level 5 (500 XP per game), and the foil badge, crafted from a foil set, has 1 level (100 XP).

Steam sale and event badges, community badges and the Game Collector badge for your library size add XP too, but big levels mostly take card sets: 550 sets for level 100 from level 0, from at least 110 different games.

SteamEZHub bots sell complete card sets for leveling; see Steam Level Up for how it works. To count the sets from your current level to your target, use the Steam level calculator.

Common Mistakes When Counting Steam XP

Most wrong estimates come from one of these:

  • Counting every level as 100 XP. Only levels 1–10 cost that much: level 100 takes 55,000 XP, not 10,000.
  • Using your target's total when you already have a level. Every total here starts at level 0, so subtract your own: level 200 to 300 is 465,000 − 210,000 = 255,000 XP, not 465,000.
  • Reading "XP to next level" as a total. It's the cost of one level only: 1,100 XP in the level 100 row is the step to 101, not the way to 100.
  • Ignoring XP you already have. Your Badges page shows your XP toward the next level, so you may need a few sets fewer than the table says.
  • Planning more than 5 regular sets per game. A regular badge can be crafted only 5 times, so the 1,550 sets from level 100 to 200 need at least 310 different games.

FAQ

How much XP do you need for Steam level 10?

1,000 XP from level 0, or 10 card sets, since levels 1–10 cost 100 XP each. After that it gets pricier: level 20 already takes 3,000 XP.

How much XP is Steam level 50?

15,000 XP in total from level 0, or 150 card sets. Levels 41–50 cost 500 XP each, and levels 51–60 cost 600 XP each.

How much XP do you need for Steam level 100?

55,000 XP counting from level 0, or 550 card sets. The last ten levels, 91–100, take 10,000 XP (1,000 XP each), and level 101 already costs 1,100 XP.

How much XP for Steam level 200, 500 and 1000?

From level 0: 210,000 XP (2,100 sets) for level 200, 1,275,000 XP (12,750 sets) for level 500 and 5,050,000 XP (50,500 sets) for level 1000.

How much XP per level on Steam?

It depends on the ten the level is in: 100 XP (1 set) per level for 1–10, 200 XP (2 sets) for 11–20, and 100 XP more every 10 levels after that. Going from level 200 to 201 costs 2,100 XP, from 1000 to 1001 it's 10,100 XP.

How do I use the XP table to find how much XP I still need?

Subtract your level's total XP from your target's: level 100 to 150 is 120,000 − 55,000 = 65,000 XP, or 650 sets. The Steam level calculator does the same for any two levels.

What do you get for each new Steam level?

Each level adds 5 friend slots, from 250 up to the maximum of 2,000 at level 350. Every 10 levels also give one more profile showcase and +20% booster pack drop chance.

What is the highest level in the Steam XP table?

This table goes up to level 6100: 186,355,000 XP, or 1,863,550 card sets from level 0. That's where Steam's newest level badge, a crown, starts; no newer badge design exists yet on our Steam level badges page. For levels between the rows, use the Steam level calculator.
