The Trust Factor parameter in CS:GO can be increased in many ways. Starting with the fact that, according to the game developers, the only right way to improve the Trust Factor in CS:GO is to be a good, positive member of the CS:GO and Steam community.

In addition, it is recommended to have as many games in CS:GO and other games on Steam as possible, thanks to which the system can extract the most information about our account from us, which in turn will help in better matching of players.

According to unofficial sources, we learn that the growth of Trust Factor in CS:GO is also influenced by:

Buying games on Steam/assigning games to your account
This option allows the system to assess whether we are good players. The more games we own and the more games we play without boosters, the better Trust Factor we can get.

Taking part in events on Steam
The next step to increasing the Trust Factor. Participation in all events organized by Steam / Valve allows you to increase the level of trust in our account.

Pimp my profile, i.e. customization of the Steam profile
Here, it is not certain whether this affects the Trust Factor in any way, but if we have unnecessary funds in the Steam wallet, we can play with pimping our profile through various backgrounds, badges, Steam profile level, etc.

Positive Comments +Rep
This point relates to the aforementioned thread about being a good member of the Steam community. The more positive comments, the better Trust Factor in CS:GO we can get.

Don't cheat
Not much needs to be mentioned here. We want to have a high retention rate - we don't use any hacks or cheats.

Don't be toxic people
We have to behave properly, decently. Do not call players names, do not insult anyone, do not swear, do not behave in a toxic way.

Speak politely
We use parliamentary language in all comments, messages, emails to Valve, Steam Support, etc. We do not challenge, we do not offend. We try to present the situation in a matter-of-fact way.


How to check Trust Factor in CS:GO?

There is currently no way to check your Trust Factor in CS:GO. According to the game's developers, Trust Factor is designed to match similar players to ourselves in terms of this parameter. However, they remind you that the selection of a group of players with similar skills depends on the time of day or region in which we are currently looking for a game.


Do new players have a low Trust Factor in CS:GO?

According to information on the official Steam website, Trust Factor is based not only on CS:GO itself. If we were good Steam users in the past, played other games without cheating, received positive comments (+rep) then entering CS:GO our trust factor will be high.


Will Prime Status increase my Trust Factor in CS:GO?

Well, yes. All users who have Prime Status enabled and their account linked to a phone number automatically receive a significantly higher Trust Factor than those who play without Prime Status and have not linked their phone number to their Steam account.
