The PlayStation Network Card is a prepaid card that can be used to purchase digital content. The value of the card will be transferred to the user's PlayStation Network wallet by entering the 12-digit number printed on the card. Funds in the user's PlayStation Network wallet will allow users to purchase products like games and videos available through the PlayStation Store. The PlayStation Network Card is available in 3,000 yen, 5,000 yen and 10,000 yen denominations.

InComm's Fastcard POSA technology allows retailers to activate prepaid cards at the point-of-sale, eliminating the risk and cumbersome control procedures required for maintaining an inventory of value bearing cards. It also allows prepaid cards to be displayed for sale without the risk of theft and shrinkage. Using this POSA technology, card issuers also have the opportunity to leverage card design in marketing the cards.
