As surprising as it may seem, PlayStation allows neither to offer a dematerialized game to one of its contacts, nor to buy a gift card on the PlayStation Store. To offer a game, it will therefore be necessary to purchase a gift card.
And for that, nothing could be simpler by going through recognized online sellers.
