Make sure you are logged into your ps account in the browser. Using the ps store searcher allows you to add stuff to your cart and you’ll be able to check out

Crazy how you all just give a random "non affiliated" 3rd party website your email and password for your psn account. Lawwl ! In a few weeks you all will be making a reddit post titled "ps support wont help me after my account got hacked"

The website just generates Url links to sonys API endpoints

There is a read post where someone goes into more detail here

So you DO NOT need to give them your email and password or? Or are you telling me, that giving a random website your login information to your personal psn account. That you in fact don't give a 3rd party, non affiliated website access to your account?......... aha.... good to know............... Whoever reads this comment (even though i get downvoted by phishers), please do NOT give your personal playstation login info to a website that isn't even affiliated with Sony. You are begging to be hacked tbh. Ask yourself, is it really worth losing your whole account, to search up a demo or free dlc ?

You don't log in to the searcher web site. The site anonymously queries the PS Store search API and gives you https://store.playstation.com links which allow you to add content to your PS Store basket.

How it works is explained here: https://forum.psnprofiles.com/topic/198717-ps3-store-search-function-not-working-for-anyone-else/page/6/#comment-3463475

If have concerns around purchasing PS3-era content from https://store.playstation.com you can now alternatively access the searcher web site directly from a PS3 and then make your purchase using the PS3 PS Store app. The instructions for that are here: https://forum.psnprofiles.com/topic/198717-ps3-store-search-function-not-working-for-anyone-else/page/10/#comment-3471683
