Upcoming adjustments to PS Stars factors system defined

In keeping with the e-mail we acquired, any factors earned on or after October 24, 2024 will expire inside 12 months if not used. Beforehand, PS Stars would enable members to build up factors for as much as 24 months. In easy phrases, should you don’t spend your factors inside a 12-month interval, you lose them for good.

This might be concern for individuals who don’t commonly make purchases from the PS Retailer and are sluggish in racking up factors. I counsel claiming PS Retailer credit score as quickly as you’ll be able to, and should you nonetheless have stability left over with the expiry date approaching, splash the rest on digital collectibles. One thing is best than nothing.

The second change efficient March 1, 2025, makes all subscription purchases and renewals — together with PS Plus — ineligible to earn factors. This has notably irked PS Plus members as a result of subscription buy and renewal is the most typical solution to earn factors.

On October twenty fourth, PS Stars customers might be prompted to just accept Sony’s new phrases & situations (by way of PS App and net) in the event that they wish to preserve their membership.
