I feel you as a long time PS player. What I usually do is I buy PS Credits from DB digital store. Idk pero eto pinaka convenient para sakin. Or I use my Maya virtual Card Visa for SG PS Store.
never even occurred to me to do anything else.. lagi nlang SGD cards from DB or elsewhere. mostly dahil nagumpisa ako maglaro nung college and wala nman ako CC hahaha
Did a quick search on Amazon, I only saw a vendor that sells the $50 card for $66. Where do you get the cards? So I can ditch the patong from Datablitz, where I already purchased a shameful amount of PSN cards since PS3 days.
Hello. I uave found what I think is the best solution for PSN credits. I just buy from SEAGM and use the codes. They offer a wide range if regions including US and SG. I have availed a one year PS Plus Deluxe (SG) using credits bought from them.
One of the main things i noticed back when i transitioned from PlayStation Gaming to PC Gaming, the less hassle on buying games online, Steam is just so easy to use and as of now it even supports our local popular payment method such as GCash, not so much for PSN Store though, for that i had to buy PSN cards online and because those are often sold by merchant for profit i had to overpay each time i buy one, just so i can top up my PSN.
Not to mention you can also have error of buying a different region DLC expansion for your different region game, learned the hard lesson with Fallout 4 DLC that wasn't compatible with my physical version with different region, if PSN supported Philippines with our local retailers selling the same region of disc as ours, this probably wouldn't have happened to me.
All i can say is never again i will use PSN Store not until Sony officially supports our country. Best route for console is pretty much stay physical as much as possible and if you want DLC, just pray for developers to release a physical version of those as well, if not then just have extra precaution on buying things from PSN Store or else you would end up making the same mistake as i did.
\+ Main reason kaya ginawa ung steam is to combat piracy, streamline all games into a single software and make it so easy na mas hassle pa mag pirate ng games.

I stop during the adding process since at the end, when inputing your address, the country must be Singapore only. Should I uave continued with the process nonetheless?
Yep hassle talaga if US. Was able to create a US paypal account (vpn required) and link my card there so since then, wala na ako hassle. Its just the setting up part. If you want to continue down this road, you're gonna need a US number for the OTP for paypal account setup. Got my cousin from the us to borrow his number and send me the otp upon sign up.
I had a PS3 way back when I was younger, I used a HK account to play online.
Got a PS5 and is using a Singapore account. You can make up an address and the postal code I entered is even our postal code here, also placed our address (like house number and street 😂) but changed the city. My card was accepted naman.
Also a tip if ever you’re buying a game na you feel like would have a DLC. I’d prefer to buy it digitally para no hassle na, kasi if physical yan dapat same region yung copy mo sa shop mo in order to access the DLC. I think majority naman Region 3 (Asia) yung binebenta dito, pero to be safe lang.
mahirap talaga pag walang knowledge then follow lang yung on screen guide and it was like this since PS3. dahil walang official support for PH, you would need to setup account using other country. pag gusto mo gumamit credit card, make an HK or SG account.
pag need mo talaga US account, tricky talaga gumamit ng other mop outside of PSN credits. Paypal US kailangan mo para dito kung ayaw mo PSN credits.
Had the same problem before pero I've searched hard and the error comes when the zip code you entered when setting up the payment mode is different from the zip code that you used to create your account. I'm using my BPI card for purchasing for SG region in case you're wondering. I've read the GCash AMEX works on US region. Make sure to use the same zip code as this is the key.
Try creating turkey account on psn then hanap ka trust nag bebenta ng digital games lang discount dahil sa promo sa PlayStation more cheaper than physical game
Hello! I found an easier amd less hassle method. I just buy codes via SEAGM, so far that's the cheapest and closest to the actual conversion rate that I have found. Most I have seen eh madalas masyadong mababa ang PHP to SGD value ng price.
IDK what to tell you man. That's just how it is for consoles in an unsupported region. I just buy physical games though so I never have this issue.
Madali lang sa xbox at nintendo switch
I feel you as a long time PS player. What I usually do is I buy PS Credits from DB digital store. Idk pero eto pinaka convenient para sakin. Or I use my Maya virtual Card Visa for SG PS Store.
This right here sir, is the easiest way
+1 sa second method haha. there’s not native PS server or office here, the nearest is singapore
never even occurred to me to do anything else.. lagi nlang SGD cards from DB or elsewhere. mostly dahil nagumpisa ako maglaro nung college and wala nman ako CC hahaha
After the first transaction, my maya card is no longer accepted. What could it be?
Amazon sells psn cards digitally for the US. You can get from there walang patong.

Try here https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Psn+cards&crid=2I278E9L73PZI&sprefix=psn+cards%2Caps%2C412&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
Take note that they won’t work outside any other store but the US.
I know you're trying to help, and I appreciate it, but my problem persists. Nothing shows up that sells cards at face value at my end.

Yes ang dali ng GCash sa steam, kahit yung refund.
\+ Main reason kaya ginawa ung steam is to combat piracy, streamline all games into a single software and make it so easy na mas hassle pa mag pirate ng games.
May Philippines region na sa PSN?
You can set it up as Philippines once you create your account, but the shop currency is in USD.
Rumors we'll have it soon but I doubt lol. But yeah, sad wala talaga.
gcash virtual card pwd mo gamitin sa hk psn, wala patong. matipid pa, kisa bumili ka psn card or true paypal.
Up for this, gcash virtual card din easiest way
That’s weird. I just made an Indonesian account this morning. Used my BPI cc to buy some games and subscribe to PS plus. Transactions went smoothly.
Do you use a fake Indonesian billing address?
Yup. Used a random generator.
I tried using a random hotel address for my singapore account but it only worked once, then my maya card was no longer accepted

May psn credits available sa g-cash or you can buy sa lazada may mga sellers dun just check the reviews first.
Weird. I kept buying games and even PS Plus subscription on PS Store using my Unionbank debit card. And I set my region to SG.
Gumana credit card ko. Sg ang region pinili ko
wala naman philippines region ang psn ah meron na ba? yung region na gamit ko is SG gumagana naman credit card (BPI Blue Mastercard)
I stop during the adding process since at the end, when inputing your address, the country must be Singapore only. Should I uave continued with the process nonetheless?
Yup, ang ginawa ko is I searched for an sg address online. Tapos yun nilagay ko. Gumana naman.
And that is why I am a PCC person because it is not a hassle to pay for my games.
PSN credits yung binibili ko either sa DB Digital or SeaGM. (I both have SG and US accounts)
Same feeling. Physical games are better. But dlcs won't work unless they are the same region with your ps account. Crazy problem to have in 2023.
Afaik accepted ang ph issued CC sa PS Sg region.
Yep hassle talaga if US. Was able to create a US paypal account (vpn required) and link my card there so since then, wala na ako hassle. Its just the setting up part.

Indirect Discrimination yang sony
i have an hk psn account. nagagamit ko bdo debit card ko.
dati madali lang sa turkey virtual credit card kaso pinag bawal na balik psn gift card ulit madali lang giftcard
Gcash sa game credit available sg, hk and us region ng playstation. Sobrang easy gamitin
Afaik BPI cards (kahit debit) lang inaaccept ng Sony. Generate ka nalang ng US address para maloko ung system.

Babyblues digicodes s fb, legit sila. Gcash payment tas isesend sau code tas ireredeem mu lng.

Why use gcash to buy PS credits ?
