How to Refund PlayStation Network Transactions

Refunds for PlayStation Network (PSN) transactions can be a bit of a hassle, but with this guide, you’ll be able to navigate the process with ease.

Before You Start

Before requesting a refund, make sure that your transaction is eligible for a refund. PSN has specific policies regarding refunds, and not all transactions are eligible. Here are some general guidelines:

• Any transaction within the last 14 days is eligible for a refund, as long as the transaction is within the 30-day return window.
• If you have a PSN Plus membership, you can cancel and request a refund within the first 14 days of your subscription.
• Pre-ordered games or DLC (downloadable content) may have a longer return window or be non-refundable, depending on the seller.

Method 1: Refund Request through the PlayStation Store

1. Log in to your PSN account on your PS4 or PC.
2. Go to the “Account” section and select “Transaction History.”
3. Find the transaction you want to refund and click on it.
4. Click on the “Refund” button.
5. Follow the prompts to confirm your refund request.
6. If your refund is approved, it will be processed within 7-10 business days.

Method 2: Refund Request through Customer Support

1. Visit the PlayStation Support website and log in to your account.
2. Click on “Contact Us” and select “Refund or Replacement.”
3. Fill out the refund request form with your transaction details and reason for the refund.
