The unbanked (those without bank accounts) still use it. Common in rural areas too

Yes, but I buy directly from my bank most times, either through USSD or the app.

Only once in a while. Online recharge is faster and convenient without the retailer's additional 10 naira for profit.

I can't even remember when last I bought paper recharge card. I recharge my lines directly from my bank app.

But to your question, I think so. Most people in rural and remote parts of Nigeria do not have access to smart phones...they still use normal Torchlight phones. Meaning they'll have to buy paper recharge cards in order to get call credits.

And it's still a lucrative business there unlike big cities where people hardly buy paper cards.

The last time I bought paper card was in 2018. Due to the high amount of airtime and data I consume, I purchase from my bank.
