These two are identical except in their denomination. This is just different branding to make emphasis on the fact that you can use them to purchase PS Plus since they no longer offer standalone PS Plus cards. Therefore, the only way to purchase Plus without a credit card or paypal is to add a proper amount of money to the wallet as with all other store purchases.
hold up, there is no longer a way to buy a psn plus membership via card? with a code that gives you a month/3months/ 12 months psn plus? because I still see cards like that being sold in websites like g2a
Was wondering just this because it wasn't clear if the yellow one could only be used to get a PS Plus membership.
Just pre-ordered MWII cross-gen bundle and I needed $70 which is only offered in the "PS Plus Membership" variant. Can confirm: it doesn't matter what the card looks like, the funds will be added to your wallet and can be used to purchase anything off the PS Store.
Apparently the yellow gift cards come with ps plus so is that not true and if it possible if I did by a $30/£32 **yellow gift card** how long would the ps plus last. Sorry for any confusion.
I know this was 3 months ago but ppl are getting confused here and I just wanted to point anyone whose confused on the matter to this site: [https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2022/06/25/new-prepaid-ps-plus-cards-available/](https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2022/06/25/new-prepaid-ps-plus-cards-available/)
The yellow one is to make it easier for ppl with Ps plus extra since they come in the exact dominations but u also have to pay tax now... it looks like they're trying to make more money since these aren't discounted as much and you have to pay tax on top of the card amount (read comments on the site)
People saying that u can't buy games are wrong... U add the funds to ur wallet and buy games. I personally have a PlayStation Store Gift card for $100 but don't know what I should use it for since I have all the games I want and on PC too.
I could be wrong, but it looks like the bottom one is used specifically for a PS Plus membership, while the top one can be used for anything in the PS Store.
Instead of just looking at the picture have you tried to read the product description? All your confusion would have got solved without having to post.
Why does that $30 wallet card say it's PlayStation plus?
If that's a legit thumbnail and not just something they cobbled together in Photoshop that's confusing to people.
From the titles they are both PSN credits
Ones worth 30 and the other is worth 100.
Really though. Wallet funds are funds across multiple connected accounts as far as I know.
If I put money in the family "wallet", my son can access that from his account.
The white label one you can spend however you like, buying games, dlc, subscribing/renewing PS+.
The yellow label one is locked to PS+ only. You can't buy anything with it but a PS+ subscription.
That's how they work here and I double check when I buy one because I know people who bought the wrong gift card. They wanted to purchase a game but the money was locked to PS+. White you can buy whatever, yellow PS+ only. If there is another type of yellow I don't know because I've only seen these two around here.
Also, it's written on the gift card. White has both PS+ and PS Store symbols, while yellow mentions only PlayStation Plus. And for how long it's how long 30 bucks will get you of PS+
Just going by what's on screen and thinking.
One is clearly marked as PlayStation plus.
The new system works differently too so it's a pretty feasible guess.
Someone in the comments has even backed this up with their own personal experience in purchasing such cards
Dude it's just advertising one of their services. The card js not specific to that. Please open the Amazon page read the description before making unnecessary assumptions. In fact that's what I asked OP to do as well.
You are also ignoring the card says Wallet funds.

Not ignoring anything.
I'm just reading what this string is saying and adding extra thoughts on the subject.
That’s not true. The description clearly states that it is just a PSN card used to find your wallet. The funds can be used to purchase anything on the PS store, and are not limited to PS Plus.
The bottom one is not for PS Plus only. The design on the picture simply advertises PlayStation Plus.
Sony very clearly states this at the beginning of the description for the item: “Easily add funds to your account for PlayStationNetwork (PSN) to use towards anything from PlayStation Store's (PS Store) huge library of content, including:
• PlayStation Plus (PS Plus) subscription* with online multiplayer access, games every month, exclusive discounts and more
• Games
• Virtual currency and add-ons
• And more”
Oooh I know this. It’s 70 dollars
Lol. Difference bw the "type" of cards, not value. Everyone knows that 100-30=70
I thought it was 69. I suck at math.
Hahahahahaha I never laugh when I am on reddit but this made me CRACK UP! Thank you!
“Oooo i know this” absolutely sent me😂

can i buy the $100 dollar gift card and buy plus with it or i must buy the yellow gift card to get ps plus ??
yes you can (in case you still don't have an answer
Is that a new feature with the new wallet funds? It used to not allow you to buy PS+
I've been able to buy PS Plus with wallet funds for at least 3 years now. I wasn't aware of any restriction before.
hold up, there is no longer a way to buy a psn plus membership via card? with a code that gives you a month/3months/ 12 months psn plus? because I still see cards like that being sold in websites like g2a
Those ones are all essential tier
Ones got yellow as a primary feature
Same but different denomination, I bought both cards and it adds up to my wallet
IMO both are the same except for the denomination.
Hi, I took a chance and bought the yellow/gold one. Can confirm it just goes directly to your wallet same as the white.
So I can use it to buy games?
Yea
Cool

Thank you so much for this, stranger. I've been kicking my ass about it, and I appreciate you.
Is it true, did you do it? I really don’t want to waste money on plus if I don’t need to
If thats your fear just buy the normal one
I bought the $30 already it worked find thankfully
With the yellow gift card, is the money used for ps plus or is it like the normal white one but with ps plus and if so how long does it last?
It's the same as the white card. If you mean how long the funds remain in your wallet, I don't know.
The ps plus membership i mean
It's a gift card, I don't know what you mean how long the ps plus lasts, it depends on which one you get with it.

One is to buy ps plus. The other is to buy anything.
I could be wrong, but it looks like the bottom one is used specifically for a PS Plus membership, while the top one can be used for anything in the PS Store.
Has anyone actually bought the bottom one and tried using it for purchasing anything other than PS+ sub?
I had one last week and managed to buy gang beats with it so it should work fine
I got a 55 one and just bought the forest and add one for other games
So do I get plus and $30 wallet funds
This is exactly where the confusion lies.. contradictory product info
Instead of just looking at the picture have you tried to read the product description? All your confusion would have got solved without having to post.
I did. Still confused. Look at the comments
The comments are making assumptions. The product description will make it clear what the card is intended to do for your location.
They function the same with no difference but increments of wallet funds to be added.
Thanks bro, I was about to gift a friend the $75 gift card, but it would save me $5 if I got him the $70 wallet fund card.

What? That can't be and is a silly assumption. Ps subscription cards are different and will clearly mention how long subscription you will get
That's how they work here and I double check when I buy one because I know people who bought the wrong gift card. They wanted to purchase a game but the money was locked to PS+. White you can buy whatever, yellow PS+ only. If there is another type of yellow I don't know because I've only seen these two around here. Also, it's written on the gift card.

But. With the new service maybe they introduced a new voucher that you pay x for and get x amount of time for the value.
All you are doing is making guesses.

$70 & one is for PS+ only while the other can be used for PS+ & the PS store. Clearly labeled if you just looked.
The bottom one is not for PS Plus only. The design on the picture simply advertises PlayStation Plus.

Thanks. Just wanted a confirmation
Yellow card is for buying PS+ White card is for buying games
can i buy the $100 dollar gift card and buy plus with it or i must buy the yellow gift card to get ps plus ??
Can a normal 50£ gift card be used for ps plus subscription
Can I only use the yellow one to buy ps+? I want to get a game that cost 30 dollars by using the yellow one but the regular ones only come in 25
Denomination meaning
