I had no idea Nigeria was on one of the countries not supported by Sony for PlayStation devices, it was shocking when I bought my PS4 Pro and tried to get an account only to not see Nigeria on the list, it’s crazy considering the amount of consoles Nigerians buy every time a new one drops.<\/p>\n

While I don’t have the exact numbers, its a lot. A lot.<\/p>\n

Anyways, there’s a workaround for this one, you can easily just select the US as your country while signing up, not sure if this is legal or not but its what myself and hundreds of thousands of other PlayStation users use.<\/p>\n

Funding your PSN account<\/h2>\n

That asides, after your account, is set up, to buy games, movies and other items on the PlayStation store, you’ll need to add payment information to your account, two options are available here, you can add your card or PayPal.<\/p>\n

What I’ve noticed is that none of my payment information worked, not my USD based card from Payoneer, or the local bank Accounts or even my local PayPal account, I said local cause the PayPal service available here is well, abysmal.<\/p>\n

Anyways none of them worked for me but this did.<\/p>\n

Buy a PlayStation Giftcard on Amazon<\/h2>\n

This, yeah, this worked.<\/p>\n

You can buy PlayStation giftcards from Amazon in $100, $50, $25, $10 denominations and apply it to your account no problem.<\/p>\n

\"buy<\/p>\n

If you’ve never purchased anything on Amazon in the past, here’s a step by step process to buy PlayStation store gift card from amazon and apply it to your PSN account.<\/p>\n
