Starting from July 6th 2021 the playstation store for PSP was shut down. Since the PSP Go also does not have a UMD drive, For most people the internal storage of 16gb is not enough.
Adding a micro SD card to your psp Go is a great way to expand storage since the price of the proprietory memory sticks has sky rocketed.
