How to buy PlayStation Gift Cards from Amazon
One way to buy PlayStation games from the PlayStation Store or make gifts to other Xbox users is to purchase a PlayStation Gift Card from Amazon. You can pay for the PlayStation Gift Card with your Amazon Gift Card balance (if any), as well as with your debit or credit card. Unfortunately, you can’t choose a personalized cash value for the PlayStation Gift Card when buying it. Instead, you can buy the following predefined cash values:
- PlayStation Gift Card - $100 on Amazon.com or PlayStation PSN Card £100 on Amazon.co.uk.
- PlayStation Gift Card - $75 on Amazon.com or PlayStation PSN Card £75 on Amazon.co.uk.
- PlayStation Gift Card - $60 on Amazon.com. Unfortunately, there’s no £60 PlayStation PSN Card available on Amazon.co.uk.
- PlayStation Gift Card - $50 on Amazon.com or PlayStation PSN Card £50 on Amazon.co.uk.
- PlayStation Gift Card - $25 on Amazon.com or PlayStation PSN Card £25 on Amazon.co.uk.

This is a digital product, and you get a voucher code as soon as your payment is processed.

Can you buy a PlayStation game from Amazon as a digital code?
Unlike Xbox games, PlayStation games are not sold as digital codes on Amazon, only as physical products (discs). They often tend to have more affordable prices than those found in the PlayStation Store, but you need to wait for the discs to get delivered to your address, you can’t enjoy them instantly.
For example, you can buy Elden Ring for PlayStation 5, but as seen below, it’s not available as a digital code. However, the game is available as a digital code for the Xbox console. That sucks, doesn’t it?
PlayStation 5 games are not available as digital codes on Amazon
We hope that Sony will copy the model used by Microsoft for Xbox, and make their games available as digital codes on Amazon and other online retailers.
