PlayStation: Exchange trophies for credits - how it works

If you want to turn your trophies into cash on the PlayStation, you can simply exchange the trophies you've earned. In this practical tip, we will show you how it's done.

Exchange PlayStation Trophies for credits - how it works

• Trophies are always hard earned on PlayStation, Xbox One and Steam, but of little value. Sony changed this on PlayStation 4 in late 2017.
• The trophies won can now be exchanged for hardworking players for PSN credits. You can then use it to buy more games.
• Currently, however, this only works for players in the USA. When and whether the function will also come to Germany is still unclear.

PlayStation 4: how much are trophies worth?

• Sony first converts the trophies into points. 100 silver trophies are worth 100 points. For 25 gold trophies you get 250 points. For 10 platinum trophies you get a full 1000 points.
• Currently, players in the US can exchange 1000 points for $ 10 PSN credit. The exchange rate in euros will probably be the same.
