Sony Entertainment Network and PlayStation Store add carrier billing for AT&T and T-Mobile

SONY ENTERTAINMENT NETWORK LAUNCHES MOBILE BILLING IN THE UNITED STATES



New Wallet Funding Option Makes It Easier to Purchase Games, Movies, Music, and More Through Sony Entertainment Network and PlayStation Store



SAN MATEO, CA, Aug. 29, 2013 – Sony Network Entertainment International and Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC., today unveiled a new feature that enables users of participating mobile networks in the United States to top up their account wallet to purchase content from the PlayStation®Store and across Sony Entertainment Network using their mobile phone account.



Working with mobile payments company, Boku, the process makes it easier for users to obtain PlayStation Store and Sony Entertainment Network content, including downloadable games, add-ons, themes, movies and TV shows, as well as subscriptions to the Music Unlimited service. Mobile billing works in conjunction with select mobile network operators in the United States.



From launch, wallet top-ups with mobile billing can be made through the PlayStation®Store on PlayStation®3 (PS3™) or Account Management via the Sony Entertainment Network website. Customers can choose "mobile" as the payment option, enter their mobile phone number, and respond via SMS to confirm the wallet top-up1. The wallet top-up charge will appear on their next mobile phone bill, or is debited against their pre-paid account2.



"Offering customers the best entertainment content across the PlayStation Store and Sony Entertainment Network is our top priority," said Eric Lempel, Vice President, Sony Network Entertainment International. "Mobile billing is another secure and convenient way for users to fund their wallet for immediate access to the content they want."



With an unprecedented amount of digital content now available across the network, and new and easier ways to top-up user account wallets, the PlayStation Store and Sony Entertainment Network online store deliver convenient and immediate access to games, movies and TV episodes, music, and more for PS3, PlayStation®Vita, PSP® (PlayStation® Portable) and other devices.
