How can I safely buy games on PlayStation 5?

You can buy games for PS5, among others, from online retailers (e.g., Amazon, PlayStation Store, Steam), in-store (e.g., Media Markt, Media Expert) or on platforms with used products (e.g., WymieńGry.pl).

When making a purchase, check whether the game is compatible with your console and whether it is available in your region. Check out several suppliers to get the best price.

The easiest option is to visit the PlayStation Store, because you will buy the game directly from the console manufacturer and will be able to download it immediately. Additionally, when purchasing from PlayStation Store, you can pay both with a payment card or an alternative payment method such as PaysafeCard.

 

Why is it worth using PaysafeCard when buying games for PlayStation 5?

PaysafeCard is a very popular and simple online payment method. All you need to do is buy a PaysafeCard voucher in a stationary store or online, and then enter the 16-digit PIN code printed on the receipt to finalise the payment for your purchase. PaysafeCard offers the following benefits:

 

1. Privacy protection: PaysafeCard allows you to make purchases without sharing your personal data, credit card or bank account details.

2. Budgeting: with PaysafeCard, you can only spend the amount available on your prepaid voucher, thus avoiding an overdraft on your other payment card.

3. Gift idea: PaysafeCard is a great way to give a gift to a loved one who can choose a PS5 game themselves, and you don’t have to worry about transferring money or choosing a wrong present.

4. Convenience: PaysafeCard is a widely available payment option, wherever you’re gaming. You can buy it from within your PaysafeCard account or at locations, such as local stores or gas stations.
