Adding Money to a PSP Wallet

Whether you play video games with a PlayStation 3, or use the smaller handheld PSP, you have access to the PlayStation Store -- which sells everything from games to digital comics. The PlayStation Store operates just like a regular store, in that you need money to purchase things. That̵7;s where the PlayStation Wallet comes in. It stores money that you transfer from a linked bank account or credit card. This feature is excellent for parents who want to control how much their child spends.
