Using the wallet

To use this feature, you may be required to update the system software.


Use the wallet to purchase products that are for sale in (PlayStation®Store). One wallet is created for each PlayStation®Network master account. You must add funds to the wallet before making purchases.

Adding funds

You can add funds to the wallet using options such as a credit card, PlayStation®Network Card or Edy*. Funding methods, currency and limits to wallet funding level vary depending on the country or region of residence. For details, contact the technical support line for your region.

Edy is only available in Japan.

Hints

  • Subscriptions are services that can be used for a predetermined period such as 30 or 60 days. When the subscription expires, an extension for another subscription period is automatically purchased.
  • Either the insufficient amount for the subscription service or the minimum charge amount for the wallet, whichever is greater, will be added to the account.

Wallet usage by sub account holders

A sub account holder cannot create a wallet but can use the wallet for the associated master account to pay for products and services. A master account holder can set monthly spending limits for associated sub accounts. To set the spending limits, select (Sub Account Management) under (PlayStation®Network) > (Account Management).
