5 Tips to Secure Your PSN Account

Use Prepaid Cards

Using a credit card or debit card online is a massive time-saver. You don’t need to worry about using cash and you can do everything from the comfort of your own couch, but by having your credit card tied to your PSN account, you run the risk of your PSN account being a juicy target for someone who wants to buy things.

For those who might be a little more cautious than others, you can remove your credit card and opt to use prepaid PSN cards to fill up your Wallet. This way, your PSN account can only make purchases if it has money in the Wallet, and if it’s got no credit card attached, no money can be easily added. It’s a simple security measure, but one some users might like to implement.
