PS4 adds PayPal payment in North America

4.4

North American PS4 users can now add funds to their PlayStation Store accounts using PayPal.

PayPal support adds more options for players who may not have access to a credit card but would rather not make trips to the store for PSN gift cards.

Sony detailed the process in an email sent out to PS4 owners - users simply select "add funds" during checkout, select the "PayPal" option and log into their account if need be, select the amount of fund to add, and continue to complete checkout. More details are available on Sony's support site.

PlayStation 3 received direct PayPal support in November 2013. Users were previously required to transfer funds from PayPal to their PSN accounts using a PC.

Sony has confirmed its lineup of games set to appear at E3 next week, including Driveclub, The Order 1886, and dozens more titles.

Be sure to read what we think Sony needs to show at its E3 2014 press conference to maintain its early lead in the new-gen console race.

This should act to be pretty convenient to PS4 users. Hopefully this comes to Australia in the near future

Miss That's pretty cool. I like it as it would make it easier to do that rather than go all the way to the store to buy a PSN card.

True that. PayPal is a decent service as well, glad to hear that they implemented this.

This is a great feature, I feel a lot more comfortable using Paypal, then directly paying with a credit card.

I really wish they had this kind of support on the Xbox One, the 360 kind of supports it but it won't support it for reoccurring payments like Xbox Music and Gold but I like that playstation is trying to do something as Paypal is one of the biggest virtual payment service out there so I love it when I can use it.
