I wish I could give this company zero stars. This website is nothing but a scam. I purchased digital services/codes from them, and not only did they fail to deliver as promised, but their customer service is an absolute joke.

After weeks of back-and-forth emails with their so-called support team, I still have no real resolution. They could've mentioned your bull$#*! 'terms and conditions' from the start instead of wasting my time for weeks asking me to provide screenshots several times. I did not receive valid codes, and you outright stole money from me.

What's worse is their total lack of accountability. As a loyal customer for years, the least you could've done was offer a refund or in-store credit. Instead, I got meaningless responses that sound copy-pasted from a script. Your customer service team is totally inept—honestly, I bet AI would do a better job soon.

This entire experience is beyond disappointing, and I will never make a purchase from your scam site again. Rest assured, I'm reporting this to consumer protection agencies and disputing the charges with my bank.

Save yourself the frustration, wasted time, and lost money. Don't fall for their scam. This company is unethical, untrustworthy, and should be avoided at all costs.

If you're looking to purchase digital gift cards, try PC game supply or CD Keys instead!

STAY AWAY!

Horrible experience trying to purchase PSN gift codes as a present for a friend. I bought 4 $50 codes and none of them work. Support is extremely unhelpful and sent me in circles. Would not trust at all for anything but physical goods, and even then you can probably get a better deal just by looking on Amazon.

Save your money, don't get scammed.

Easy and Efficient
December 8, 2023

I recently purchased PSN credit for the Singapore network from Playasia and had a very positive experience. The process was quick and effortless, with the pricing being both competitive and affordable. The integration of PayPal for payments added to the convenience.

What I particularly appreciated was the post-purchase account creation option. It was seamless—I only needed to set a password. This feature is beneficial for future reference, such as checking my download history or retrieving codes.

Initially, I was unsure about how I would receive and access the code, which led me to wonder about account creation during the payment process. Perhaps informing customers beforehand that an account will automatically be created after payment could alleviate similar concerns.

Overall, my first-time experience with Playasia was very satisfactory.

I ordered a Hong Kong PSN digital card and it couldn't have been any easier. Got my code instantly. No problems. Completely satisfied with my purchase. Admittedly I was worried at first. But rest assured after my purchase and how easily it was done. I have no worries or reservations about purchasing anything from here. You have a new life long customer and I will be purchasing more!

Excellent place for physical Switch games.
October 4, 2023

If you're looking for that niche release or just want a physical copy of your games, then PlayAsia is the store you've been hoping to find. If they don't have it, they've probably ordered it - and will get enough so you can get one as well. The website is well laid out, and searchable, so if you have even the slightest idea of what you're after, you'll probably be able to find it for a fairly reasonable price.

Excellent company, highly recommend
October 12, 2023

Playasia always has what I want in stock and at a really good price. Delivery is quick and efficient, which is rare where I live in rural northern Canada! As a mum on a budget I highly recommend Playasia, they have proven to be an honest and reliable company.

I am a regular customer when it comes to buying these JP iTunes gift cards, and I can humbly say that they are ALWAYS fast and easy to buy! The only thing is that I wish they were a bit cheaper considering the worth of USD to yen. Definitely recommend however!

I bought this game and it came in good condition. This was the Japanese version but advertised as having English options. It Didn't. Shortly after the receiving game this was changed to there would be an English patch. There never was (although other versions received this) they pointed out the game could only be returned if it remained sealed. Obviously I had to use it to find the issue.
UPDATE

I just received a response from play asia after leaving a bad review. They have offered me an Asian copy (that has the English option) which is brilliant. I'm raising this to 3* as this a good response. I guess its going to take a while to ship but I will further amend this if the new copy arrives.

Edit #2. New asia copy (English options) free of charge. Im very happy. I ap pleased to say I was wrong about them.
