What is Sony Playstation?

PlayStation is one of the most renowned and recognisable gaming brands in the world. Sony’s first console, the original PlayStation, took the gaming world by storm when it was released back in 1995. Since then a few console generations have passed, with the PlayStation 5 currently dominating the console market. While the biggest games are still available on disc, too, nowadays all games are easily purchased and downloaded from the online PlayStation store. In order to do that, players need to add a payment method to their profile. Or add some credit with a PSN card, which is simpler and safer.

What can I do with a PlayStation Network Card?

PlayStation Network Cards offer so many possibilities for PlayStation owners. You can use a PSN Card to purchase various content in the PlayStation Store both online and on your PS4 or PS5 console. Think of games (of course), DLCs, expansions, a season pass and more. Just think of the many exclusive games you can only play on a PS5, like for example Final Fantasy 7 remake, Marvel’s Spiderman, Ratchet & Clank or the Uncharted saga. A PSN card will let you experience all of that and more. If you buy a PSN Card from Gamecardsdirect, adding credit to your PlayStation account is easy, fast and secure.

Why is it a good idea to use a PSN Card?

PlayStation Network cards make for a great present to anyone who owns a PlayStation console. Instead of giving a game disc that they may possibly not like, or even already have in their library, if you give a PSN card the recipient can use it on whatever they want. It’s a present with guaranteed satisfaction! Another good reason to use a PSN card yourself is safety. If you have a direct payment method in your profile, there is a small chance you may incur unplanned payments. If you forget to disable a subscription, for instance. But if you add credit to your account using a PSN Gift Card, the only money available will only be whatever amount you haven’t used immediately. No extra payments, no frauds, no surprises! This way you do not have to link your bank account information, and you will never face unexpected fees!

How can I use PlayStation Network Cards for PlayStation Plus?

If you own a PlayStation console, you are probably familiar with PS Plus, the subscription service with which you get access to the online network of Sony PlayStation and many other benefits. You can choose to become a member for 1, 3 or 12 months with a PSN Plus card in our webshop. There are 3 tiers to PlayStation Plus: Essential, Extra and Premium. All information about the various PS Plus tiers can be found on our PS Plus page. As soon as you become a subscriber to any of them you get to enjoy 3 free games each month, early access to demos and betas, discounts in the PlayStation Store and, of course, the ability to play online multiplayer games with friends. Additionally, if you choose to subscribe to the Extra or Premium tiers, you will have access to a Catalogue with hundreds of games that you can play anytime (as long as they are not removed from the Catalogue). Also, you can always check the latest news for the monthly games and catalogue additions on our PlayStation Plus games blog page. Please note that the PS+ codes you buy here at Gamecardsdirect do not provide a subscription directly. What they do is add the necessary funds to your account for the selected subscription. Once you have entered the code and received the funds, you will need to go to PS Store and manually purchase the subscription you want using the funds you have received from our code.
