In stock first, then what you'd pay with any fee the shop's feed gives, then price. Commission never changes the order.
Key shops
Key shops sell keys bought from other markets or from other sellers, so check the region and the shop's refund terms.

I found no region rule for keys on EA app's help pages, so go by the region the shop gives.
From EA app's help pages, read 23 October 2026:
Regions, in the shops' words
- Europe, EU, EU & UK, EMEA
- Sold for Europe, and the shops' pages I checked say these activate on UK accounts. The platforms don't name the UK: Nintendo UK says to use a code meant for Europe, and PlayStation's terms ask for one from your account's country.
- Region not stated
- The listing names no region. At ShopTo, CJS CD Keys and Kinguin, the shop's own terms or every page I checked say these work on UK accounts; at Keycense they vary, so theirs never set a price here.
No platform defines these words: each is the shop's, so check the region on its page before you buy.

Questions
How much is The Sims 3?
On EA app, from £1.55 with the £0.56 fee its feed gives at Kinguin (key, plus fees at checkout); on Steam, from £17.77 at CJS CD Keys (key, no checkout fees). Prices checked 23 October 2026.
Can I buy The Sims 3 from an official store?
Not now at the official stores I check: only key shops have it in stock, and each row says which region its key is for.
Will a The Sims 3 key work on a UK account?
The prices I lead with are only from offers their shop says work on a UK account. Steam leaves region limits to each game's publisher. If a key won't activate, the shop you bought it from handles it: Steam doesn't refund keys bought elsewhere. One listing names no region at a shop whose listings like that vary, so check the region on its page.
How do I redeem The Sims 3?
EA app keys are redeemed in the EA app or at ea.com/redeem, and the game stays on your EA account. A Steam key goes into the Steam app (Games, then Activate a Product on Steam) or Steam's website, and the game stays in your library.
