Medal x Green Man Gaming: Clips and Discounts Unite

Two Halves of the Player Journey…

Medal is a platform where 16M gamers come to clip, watch, view, and share the games they love. They aren’t content creators trying to make a career from covering campaigns, simply regular fans capturing their player memories, copying links, cataloging their gaming life, and sharing. A player sees a clip, sends it to a friend, and a purchase ‘contemplation’ starts forming long before anyone actually gets to a storefront or a checkout page. 

But discovery is only part of the journey; somewhere between the clip and the friends, a player has to decide it’s worth the money. And that’s the gap Medal and Green Man Gaming are closing together. 

Green Man Gaming: The Digital Key OG

The 1st party consoles just *officially* rescinded retail, but the reality is that it’s been happening for a long time. Green Man Gaming is an official retailer, meaning the publishers and developers of each game sale get their fair share. They were founded in 2009 around the belief that PC games were about to go fully digital and that players would follow price and choice. It’s obvious now, but it was a bit ahead of its time in the 2000s. 

Decades later, Green Man Gaming carries roughly 10,000 games from 1,250+ publishers and studios and serves millions of customers across the US, Canada, Europe, South Korea, Latam, and more. They offer some of the best discounts in the world, and if there's one thing gamers love – it’s discounts. 

Medal and The Clips

Games deserve a better shopping experience. Guarantee that 9 times out of ten, the first thing a gamer does when they hit your Steam Page is go to YouTube, TikTok, or IG to see what the game actually looks like. No gimmicks, no trailer, no out-of-engine cutscenes. On Medal, we have millions of clips taken by real gamers already documenting that experience, and it’s a natural entry point to purchase consideration. 

Why Together: 

And that’s why we partnered up with Green Man Gaming. Medal has spent years being the place where gamers share their clips and determine what they play next, and Green Man Gaming has spent two decades earning trust on price, catalog breadth, and global payment coverage. Put a discounted price next to an authentic clip, and we *hope* we just shortened the distance to that player owning it.
