Yesterday, we reported on the controversial sale of Humble Indie Bundle game keys on PC distribution sites owned by 7 Entertainment. In response to the situation, the company has issued a statement and updated its terms and conditions to prevent future sales of keys obtained through Humble Indie Bundle and similar charity sites.
A Message from 7 Entertainment
A representative from 7 Entertainment, Matt, reached out to us to address the issue and share their intentions to resolve it promptly. He wanted to clarify that 7 Entertainment, with platforms like Kinguin.com and Fast2Play, acts as a digital marketplace for vendors worldwide to sell their digital goods. They are not the owners of these products and liken themselves to an eBay for gamers.

Matt assured us that they have already contacted the vendors selling the questionable products to gather information about the origin of the keys. He emphasized that it is against their Terms of Service to sell games that are commonly offered for free or that are part of charity events.

7 Entertainment firmly believes that the products offered by their vendors benefit indie developers when they are originally purchased. However, they can only verify the validity of the keys and do not have knowledge of their source.
Matt wanted to make it clear that Kinguin Team fully supports Humble Bundle events and views them as an excellent way to raise money for noble causes while also supporting indie game developers.
Fast2play.com, another project by 7 Entertainment, is an English e-store with a wide selection of products. All the products on this platform come from official suppliers, and they are waiting for explanations from a specific supplier regarding the questionable products. Until the issue is resolved, those products have been removed from their site. It is worth noting that Humble Bundle no longer provides users with keys, but instead offers a link to activate the games directly on the STEAM platform. On Fast2play.com, customers cannot purchase accounts, digital currencies, or other digital goods that are not available through official channels.

To address the concerns raised by a user named Daniel Talarico, 7 Entertainment has added a new clause to their terms and conditions on Kinguin.com. The new addendum explicitly prohibits the sale of free keys or keys obtained through charity events.
Our Thoughts
Undoubtedly, the resale of PC games that were originally sold at a discounted price for charity is a highly questionable action that negatively impacts the creators. However, we are pleased to see 7 Entertainment taking steps to rectify the situation and prevent such incidents in the future.
