What is in-game currency called?

Do Steam cards expire?
The only possible legal exception is if you buy funds via gift card as gift cards legally have to be active for at least five years, so the company who sells them can have them expire after five years. That being said, Steam wouldn’t do that so no they don’t reset funds after a certain time.
