Gamers who make frequent PlayStation or Sony purchases may be eager to get their hands on the PlayStation Visa Credit Card.
Issued by Comenity Bank, the $0-annual-fee card offers decent rewards for brand products and some everyday spending as well. And unlike similar store cards, cardholders are not limited to redeeming rewards solely with the brand.
Here are five things to know about the PlayStation Visa Credit Card.
🤓Nerdy Tip
Previously, holders of the PlayStation Visa Credit Card were automatically enrolled in the separate Sony rewards program when they opened the card. (Enrollment was a requirement in order to earn rewards.) But the Sony rewards program ended on Dec. 31, 2024, which was also the last day cardholders could log into their accounts and redeem Sony points. The PlayStation Visa Credit Card is now part of the PlayStation credit card rewards program, and any remaining Sony rewards points will be transferred to the PlayStation credit card rewards program by March 2025. 1. Rewards are decent for PlayStation loyalists
Cardholders will earn the following:
- 5 points per $1 spent when you shop directly with PlayStation and at the Sony store.
- 3 points per $1 spent on cable and internet bill payments, including streaming services.
- 2 points per $1 spent at grocery stores and restaurants, including restaurant takeout and delivery.
- 1 point per $1 spent on all other purchases.
The elevated rewards on Sony and PlayStation products is compelling for loyalists. And you’ll also earn decent 3x and 2x rates for non-brand products — which is not always the case for co-branded and store credit cards.
However, if you spend a lot on some of those specific bills — like streaming services or groceries, for example — consider a card like the Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express. It earns 6% back on select U.S. streaming subscriptions; 6% cash back at U.S. supermarkets on up to $6,000 in spending per year; 3% back on transit and U.S. gas stations; and 1% cash back on everything else. Terms apply. Cash back can be redeemed as a statement credit. There's a $0 intro annual fee for the first year, then $95.

Or if you don't want to keep track of multiple bonus spending categories, you can find many other general-purpose credit cards that offer a high flat rate on all purchases.

Comenity also previously offered the $0-annual-fee Sony Visa Credit Card. But that card is no longer available. Current cardholders were to be converted to the PlayStation Visa Credit Card at the end of April 2025, according to the issuer. 2. Redemption options are flexible
Points earned with the PlayStation Visa Credit Card can be redeemed toward statement credit, gift cards, store codes and other products available through the Sony PlayStation rewards catalog, including select video games and digital collectibles.
You must have at least $25 worth of points to redeem for statement credits. Point values may vary depending on what you redeem them, but generally hover around 0.8 cents. Note that points expire after five years, so you must redeem your points during that time frame or lose them.
The card's redemption options, namely the ability to redeem rewards for statement credit, makes it more flexible than similar store-branded credit cards — most of which come with restrictive redemption options. However, keep in mind the card’s minimum redemption requirement for statement credits, which can be limiting if you spend slowly.
3. There is a modest welcome bonus
As of July 2026, once you open the PlayStation Visa Credit Card and spend $500 in the first 60 days, you'll earn a $100 statement credit.
Compared to other retail credit cards, this is a decent sign-up bonus. But other general rewards cards have much more valuable welcome offers. With the Wells Fargo Active Cash® Card, for example, new cardholders can get this offer: Earn a $200 cash rewards bonus after spending $500 in purchases in the first 3 months.
The card also offers 2% cash back on all purchases, for a $0 annual fee.
Cardholders can qualify for a PlayStation Plus Premium membership when they spend $6,000 or more in a calendar year with their cards. Premium membership typically costs $159.99 per year and comes with benefits like access to game trials, the Sony pictures catalog, PS5 cloud streaming and more. Once cardholders meet the spend requirement, they’ll receive an email with an invitation to opt-in to receive their Premium membership voucher — which must be claimed within 90 days of receiving the email.
Existing PlayStation Plus Premium members can stack their voucher on top of their membership. Cardholders must requalify annually to receive the benefit again.
5. It can be expensive to carry a balance
As of July 2026, the variable APR for purchases made with the card can surpass 31%.
If you pay your balance on time and in full each month, this isn't going to be a problem. But if you need to carry a balance, a credit card that offers a 0% intro APR period will be a better choice.
