I found a solution:
How do I link my Origin Account to my PSN Online ID or Gamertag?
Once you've confirmed your Origin account email address, you should see if it matches the email address you use for your other accounts. If it matches, all you need to do is sign into your game on PSN or Xbox Live. Origin will match up your email addresses and take care of the rest.
Note for Next Gen Consoles: Your gamertag or PSN Online ID carries over from Xbox 360/PS3 to Xbox One/PS4. If you have played any EA game on the last generation of consoles, please make sure you find and use that same account when you play on next gen.
If your Origin Account email address doesn't match your PSN or Xbox email, you can connect them using the steps below:
- Open the Origin client and click the Friends button, then Add a Friend. If you do not have the Origin client installed, you can Download for both PC and Mac.
- In the Import Friends menu, you can choose to "connect" your Xbox LIVE, PSN, and EA accounts. Simply sign in with your account details to connect.
If you have issues connecting your account, you will need to properly link them by contacting an EA Advisor.

OK, I got it figured out after I called Origin. I was not familiar with Origin and did not understand how it worked. The key here is that you have to download and install the Origin app on your PC or Mac. Once you have it installed, you connect your PS4 account to Origin. Then, quit the PvZ application on PS4 and restart it. You should be connected and able to play the game. The key is to download Origin app on the PC or Mac. If you don't do this, you won't be able to connect. So much research needed the noobs like myself just to play the game! Wow. Of course now that I understand that you need to have Origin installed, I see that this question was already answered above already by @WasterWobs However not knowing anything about Origin, I did not understand what the answer actually meant.
If you already have an EA account on your PC all you have to do is google search for FIFA 17 Demo. It will bring you to a EA link to download the demo. You also need to select the download for PS4. As long as your email address on the Origin account is the same as the one for the Play-station account it will automatically download to the PS4. Hope this helps. It worked for me not more than 1 hour ago.
