What is a PlayStation Plus Code?

A PlayStation Plus code is a 12-digit code you can enter into your account to get access to PlayStation Plus for a limited time, anywhere between a month to one-year. There are other codes for the PlayStation Store that offer credits (funds), discounts, and more, which all can be redeemed through the same way.

You can get these codes either online or through gift cards purchased physically from retail stores. These days you’d be hard-pressed to find or even look for a gift card in person, so it’s good that Sony makes it easy to buy one line, either through them or a third-party vendor.

Be warned though as not every website is authentic and may try to scam you if you are not careful!
