I have not tried this myself but there is a new feature on Paypal called the Paypal plugin.  It is free if you have a paypal account and allows you to shop anywhere even on sites that do not use paypal.  Check it out.  What it does is generate a 1 time use Mastercard credit card number and pulls the funds from your paypal account.  This could work throug the store.playstation.com site.  You would have to go the the store and log in and edit your billing information and see if that plug in will generate a mastercard number that you could enter into that for a single use.  This just might work and I am curious if this works for anyone.  Try it and post back if it works.

Hey Big D and everyone else viewing this,

Big D is right on the money. His suggestion worked like a charm. Here is how I did it.

1. I went to this site...  https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/we...=p/shop/vdebit

2. Logged into paypal and installed the paypal plug-in.

3. Logged into my PSN account at http://store.playstation.com and clicked on Account Management then clicked Add Funds: Credit Card.

4. Clicked the paypal plug-in and clicked Generate Secure Card. Had paypal plug-in to auto fill everything for me.

5. Clicked continue on PSN and selected how much I wanted to add to My Wallet. BINGO!!!! Worked like a charm.

Thanks Big D !!!! I have been trying to find the playstation store online instead of the PS3 and that got me where I wanted to go. Hope these instructions will help other people that were having the same problems I was having. PSN would not except my Credit Card. It kept telling me that my credit card information was not valid. This has really helped me!!!!!!

Cheers,

Kreylor

You can also just get a PayPal debit card.  It may depend on what type of acount you have though.  I can't really remember.  It is free and you can use it anywhere Mastercard is excepted, online and in stores.

The plug-in works for PayPal, I've been using it for a couple weeks now.
