And you're ready to play!

The Game Account Format is a bit trickier, but if you follow the steps below you should have no complications.

IMPORTANT: Each store may offer different methods of account activation, so pay attention to each store on how to activate it, as this guide is merely indicative. Also, this format is only guaranteed if the game is in English, although it can also be in other languages.

The account format is how the game is delivered. I'm sure you've heard of game sharing, it's a way to buy a game on one account and share the game license to another console, that's exactly what the account format is known as.

Games that are delivered through the account format will be delivered instantly. Right after the purchase, you will receive an email with some necessary credentials with instructions. Many of the stores listed on Gocdkeys have live chat for any questions you may have.


The installation takes a maximum of 5 minutes, and is carried out as follows:

- You receive the account credentials (users and pass) along with very simple instructions.

Important: Remember that both the activation and the content of this type of formats may vary depending on the store, and Gocdkeys is not responsible for any problems that may occur. Do not forget also that this guide is merely indicative, you should pay attention to all the steps provided by the store where you buy the game.

Do you need balance or a subscription to buy games or digital content on the PlayStation Store?

Many PS4 and PS5 players use PSN prepaid cards to add funds without entering payment details, as they are fast, secure and compatible with any digital purchase: full games, DLC, in-game currency or PlayStation Plus renewals. If you need balance before redeeming a code or want to take advantage of a discount, these are the most commonly used options:

PSN Prepaid Card $50 – ideal for full games, bundles and larger purchases.
PSN card for USA – perfect for DLC, in-game currency or smaller items.
PlayStation Plus Essential 12 Months – the most commonly used subscription for online play and monthly games.

There are also other PSN cards in €10, €30, €75 and €100 denominations, offering more flexibility depending on your needs. All of them are compatible with PSN accounts from Spain and add funds instantly.

PSN prepaid cards are one of the most convenient ways to manage your digital wallet, especially if you prefer to control your spending, avoid recurring payments, or renew subscriptions such as PlayStation Plus Essential 1 Month or the yearly plan, which is usually the most cost-effective.
