This would be kinda crazy to happen by accident. The person would have to be in the cart and have the card accidentally register. You can also set a PIN or require password entry before purchases are made as an already existing security measure. Those things would protect this as well. Idk if theyre automatically set up on a child account but I hope so
I wonder if someone could trigger it by sitting on the controller or tapping it against someone’s wallet pocket. Doesn’t matter, because I’m done with PlayStation and Sony, despite having never owned one myself.
I did wonder about that. I’d assume no for sitting as my card doesn’t work until it’s like half an inch from the scanner. For the wallet tap there’s also simple software solutions like needing to opt IN to the controller pay and needing to confirm paying via controller on the console with a couple second timer before dismissing to avoid someone also confirming by accident. I think it’s a fairly useless feature but it’s neat in concept
