You can try to redeem the gift card on a different account, different region, or different language. If the problem persists, you should contact the retailer or provider where you purchased the gift card and provide them with the details of the gift card, including the card number, and they will be able to assist you with your problem. It's also important to check the account balance of your account and check if the gift card is already redeemed or not. 


10. How does a PlayStation gift card work?

A PlayStation Gift Card is a type of prepaid card that you can use to purchase games, movies, TV shows, and other digital content from the PlayStation Store. When you buy a PlayStation Gift Card, it has a unique code associated with it that you can enter into your PlayStation Network account. This code is like a password that allows you to add the value of the gift card to your account's wallet balance. 


Once you add the value of the gift card to your account, you can use it to buy digital content from the PlayStation Store. The amount of the purchase will be deducted from your wallet balance. For example, if you have a $50 PlayStation Gift Card and you use it to buy a game that costs $30, your wallet balance will be reduced by $30 and you will have $20 left to spend on other content. PlayStation Gift Cards can be a great way to add funds to your account, especially if you don't have a credit or debit card or prefer not to use one.


11. Do PlayStation Gift Cards work on mobile?

Yes, PlayStation Gift Cards can be used to make purchases from mobile devices. The funds from the gift card can be used to purchase games, DLC, and other items on the PlayStation Store through the PlayStation App, which is available for iOS and Android devices. 


You can redeem the gift card on the PlayStation App, by logging in to your account, going to the PlayStation Store, and selecting "Redeem Codes" from the menu. Once the gift card has been redeemed, the funds will be added to your account balance and you can use them to make purchases on the PlayStation Store. 


It's important to note that the gift card should be redeemable in the same language as the account you are using and also the gift card should be specific to the region of the account you are using. 


It's also worth noting that while you can redeem the gift card on mobile, you will need a PlayStation console to download and play the games.
