Enlarge / Subscription cards like this seemingly won't work until PlayStation Plus transitions to its new tiered structure in June.
Sony has temporarily cut off users' ability to renew their PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now subscriptions, an apparent effort to prevent users from converting those cheaper subscriptions into more expensive PlayStation Plus Premium subscriptions when the services transition to a new unified, tiered structure in June.
Current PlayStation Plus subscribers who try to renew their subscription through the online PlayStation Store are greeted with a cryptic message reading, "Can't Purchase; Can't Add to Cart; You've already purchased this item."
