Forums - Sony - Creating a US PSN while living in Europe.

I live in the EU and want to create a US account to take advantage of the earlier releases and cheaper games. So I've created a US account on my PS4. If I buy games on the store will they work on my PS4 while playing through my EU account or do I need to log in with the US account to play them? 

Also anything else I should know? I tried doing the 14 days PS plus trial but it requires my credit card info and won't accept my card. It also won't accept my paypal money. Anybody know why? 

 

Thanks in advance! 

You're fav neighbourhood frog,

You can play the games you get on the US while logged in on your EU account. US PSN won't accept a credit card where your bank is not in the US. To still be able to buy games, you need to purchase US PSN credits. Cheapest way to do this is via amazon.com

Thanks bubby. If I buy an amazon psn card will it just give me the code straight away? Also I see the US have PS Now. If I stream a game on ps now will it work or be laggy as hell?

They send you a code.  I'd guess you'd get it in your email 20 min. later.  

I have no idea about that. 


Nice. And do you need a US amazon acc? Or will any region let you buy official Us psn cards?
