PSN Wallet top up card

I'm wanting to buy a PSN Wallet top up card from the UK and send that redeem code over to a guy in California. Would UK money on that card work on his PS4 in California if you know what i mean?


Solution 1:

No.

PSN cards are region locked. You will need to buy a card associated with your region. DLC's are also region locked. I've used this site several times for obtaining codes out of my region, works very well!

This was again verified by a pro level community supporter, "Brit-Ko" in 2010:

No PSN cards from one country will not work in another, for example a USA PSN card will not work in the UK & vice versa, having said that if the country was an EU country then an EU PSN card would work in a number of countries, make sense?

You'll have to purchase a PSN card from the region the recipient will use it.
