PSN card or PlayStation Network Card was mainly created to meet specific needs of the players. However, today it is providing many more benefits for the users. It was originally conceived as a simple way for adding funds online from PlayStation Store without even using your credit card. This was very convenient for the teens who do not have their own credit cards or whose parents are reluctant to provide their information online.
The idea became very popular that now you can get the PlayStation network cards in a wide variety of outlets and stores that sell games as well as systems. You also have an option to purchase it through online the retailers. However, you may need a credit card or Paypal account to do so. They are also sold by big game stores, box stores, pharmacy chains, gas stations, convenience stores as well as by the largest supermarket chains. PlayStation Network cards are easy to redeem, too. Of course, you must join the PlayStation Network and unlike Xbox Live, registration process is quick and easy. Once you are connected, all you have to do is click "Redeem" button for entering your twelve-digit code on the card. This will make the funds transfer immediately to your online wallet. Even though the card will expire twelve months after the purchase, you will be able to keep the funds in your portfolio for as long as you want without risking your cash. However, before you buy a PSN card, it is very important to make sure that the card is provided by a genuine dealer.
