Alternative to credit card transactions already live in Japan


Sony has confirmed it will be releasing PlayStation Network cards in North America early next year, following a successful roll-out in Japan.

The cards are an alternative to using credit cards to purchase downloadable content from the PlayStation Store for the PS3 and PSP.

"PlayStation Network Cards are coming, and should start appearing at retailers in early '08," confirmed Eric Lempel, director of PSN operations.

"The cards will be redeemable via the PlayStation Store for PC, and on the PlayStation 3 to supply the wallet with funds to spend on games, add-ons, and other paid content."

Cards in Japan retail for JPY 3000 and JPY 5000 and were launched the same day as the release of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
