Your PS5 redeem code might not be working for several reasons: Ensure the code hasn't expired or already been used. Check for regional restrictions—some codes only work in specific regions. Double-check for any typographical errors. If your account has a child lock or purchase restrictions, this might also be preventing the code from being redeemed. Contacting PlayStation support is a good step if none of these solutions work.
