Following the Shutdown of LittleBigPlanet PS3 and LBP PS Vita Servers, Sony announced PS Store payment option limitations beginning this October 27th for purchases made on PS3 consoles and PS Vita systems... specifically, you'll no longer be able to use debit or credit cards nor PayPal to add funds or purchase digital content via PlayStation Store directly on these platforms.

Instead, those still in the PS3 Scene and PS Vita Scene will need to add funds to their account using PlayStation Store gift cards, debit / credit cards or PayPal payments via the desktop, mobile, PS4 or PS5 versions of PlayStation Store and in turn purchase digital content on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.

While this process may seem a bit convoluted and inconvenient, it's likely necessary to keep customer payment data safe as these legacy platforms see fewer software security updates... with the current PS3 Firmware 4.88 arriving this past June and the last PS Vita Firmware 3.73 revision released back in October 2019.

Here's the official announcement from Sony PlayStation, to quote: Discontinued PlayStation apps, features and services

Purchases on PS3 consoles and PS VITA systems

Starting 27th October, 2021, you can no longer use a credit or debit card, or a payment method such as PayPal, to buy digital content or add funds to your wallet when visiting PlayStation Store on your PS3 console or PS Vita system.

To buy digital content for your PS3 console or PS Vita system, you must first add sufficient funds to your wallet on PlayStation Store. You can add funds by redeeming a PlayStation Store gift card, using a credit or debit card, PayPal, or other available payment methods via a desktop computer, mobile device, a PS4...
