What Can You Do With Your Remaining Balance on a PlayStation Gift Card?
After you check your used gift card for its balance, you can do any of the following:
- Purchase a PlayStation item—Visit the PlayStation store to spend the rest of the funds on your gift card
- Exchange your gift card—Multiple websites offer gift card exchange. You type in the remaining balance, and they offer you a gift card from a different retailer with the same balance you have on your PS card. You can send it by mail, and you’ll receive the gift card of the brand you chose by mail as well
- Give the card as a present—If your balance is high enough and you don’t want to buy anything from PS, you can consider giving your card away
- Sell the gift card for cash—Visit a kiosk or a store that deals with reselling gift cards. They will buy your gift card for cash. The only downside is that you won’t get the whole amount because these places give back only around 80% of the gift card balance. You can also find websites that are in the gift card reselling business, but be careful because some of them might be a scam
- File a cash back request—In some states, the law forces retailers to provide a cash back option if the gift card balance doesn’t exceed a certain amount—usually $5 or $10. You can file a cash back request if you are eligible for a refund. Use DoNotPay to avoid the complicated process of filing the cash back request yourself
