How to Redeem PlayStation Gift Card

A PlayStation Gift Card is one of the easiest ways to add funds to your PSN wallet, buy new games, renew your PlayStation Plus subscription, or gift credit to a friend. Whether you’re using a PS5, PS4, or accessing the PlayStation Store via the web or mobile app, redeeming your code takes only a few minutes.

In this complete guide, you’ll learn every possible way to redeem your PlayStation gift card, understand region compatibility, and fix common issues — step by step.


What You Can Buy with a PlayStation Gift Card

PlayStation gift cards are digital codes that add credit to your PlayStation Network (PSN) wallet. Once redeemed, you can use your balance to:

  • Buy digital PS5 and PS4 games
  • Purchase DLCs and add-ons
  • Subscribe to PlayStation Plus or PlayStation Now
  • Rent or buy movies and shows
  • Purchase in-game currencies and microtransactions

Each card is region-specific, meaning a USA card won’t work on a UK account. Always make sure to buy a card that matches your account’s country — you can find all available PSN cards by region on AnyCards.


How to Redeem a PlayStation Gift Card on PS5

  1. Turn on your PS5 and sign in to your PlayStation Network account.
  2. Go to SettingsUsers and AccountsPayment and Subscriptions.
  3. Choose Redeem Codes.
  4. Enter your 12-digit code carefully and select Redeem.
  5. Your PSN wallet will instantly update with the balance.

💡 Tip: Double-check the region of your PSN account before redeeming. A US code, for example, only works on a US account.


How to Redeem on PS4

  1. On your PS4 home screen, open the PlayStation Store.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and select Redeem Codes.
  3. Carefully enter your 12-digit voucher code.
  4. Confirm the redemption — your credit will appear in your PSN wallet.

🎮 You can now use the balance to buy games, movies, and subscriptions right away.


How to Redeem via the PlayStation Store (Web Browser)

If you prefer using your PC or laptop:

  1. Visit store.playstation.com.
  2. Log in to your PlayStation Network account.
  3. Click your profile icon (top-right corner).
  4. Select Redeem Code from the dropdown menu.
  5. Enter your code and confirm.

This method is perfect when you buy a digital code from AnyCards, as you can copy and paste it directly without typing it manually.


How to Redeem a PlayStation Gift Card Using the PlayStation App

  1. Open the PlayStation App on your smartphone (available for iOS and Android).
  2. Log in to your account.
  3. Tap your profile iconRedeem Codes.
  4. You can either manually enter the code or scan it with your camera if the feature is available.
  5. Once redeemed, your new balance syncs instantly with your console and web account.

Troubleshooting: When Your PSN Code Doesn’t Work

If your PlayStation gift card isn’t redeeming, try these solutions:

  • Region mismatch: A US code won’t work on a UK or UAE account.
  • Already redeemed: Someone else might have used the code.
  • Typing errors: Double-check for similar characters (e.g., 0 vs O).
  • Server downtime: Wait a few minutes and try again.
  • Expired or damaged code: Contact PlayStation Support with proof of purchase.

👉 You can always recheck your code’s validity directly on the PlayStation Store or by contacting Sony Support.


Understanding PSN Region and Currency Compatibility

PlayStation gift cards are tied to specific countries and currencies. That means a PlayStation PSN USA Gift Card can only be redeemed on an American PSN account, while a PlayStation PSN UK Gift Card works exclusively on a British PSN account.

Here are direct links to region-specific cards on AnyCards so you can pick the right one:

If your country isn’t listed, check the Global Gift Card section on AnyCards — new regions are added frequently.
