debit card will require about N2000 to open the account out of which
N1000 will be removed for the card if you choose to have the card for

Yes
wasco24: fidelity back visa is nt workin in most site, bt dnt knw abt access u can give it a trial

thanks, i'll give them a try.

arbitrage:

many banks have visa card that you can use online but nigeria's limitation will still be there if the seller site only accepts their country cards like usa and uk.

try gtb dollar denominated visa card, skye bank naira visa card, access naira visa card, union visa card, zenith visa card, diamond visa card and standard chartered visa card and so on.

i guess its between Access and Skye now. not really interested in the others cos i'ld need to buy dollars to fund them.

theres this particular site i'm subscribed to, and only gtb visa and zenith websurfer have worked there so far.

since zenith is phasing out websurfer and i dont want to buy dollars, i need to test all the other options till i get a match.

Anyone with success stories on Skye and Access?

Of all those visa cards I mentioned, only GTB visa is dollar funded. The rest are your normal naira denominated cards.

I do not understand what you mean by some guys using GBT Naira Mastercard without token. Do you use token before when buying online with your Visa or Mastercard? Token is only used when you are using GTB internet banking to transfer funds from your account to elsewhere. You do not need token ordinarily when using your card online or in ATM. Do you?

Token is only for internet banking and getting the mastercard secure code, so u must not have it to buy things online

which one be secure code again, apart from 3 digits behind d card

Tonjeola1:

When you are buying with your visa or mastercard online, you usually use the 3 digit security code at the back to authorize and complete the payment. But there is another (second) level of security introduced in recent years by Visa and Mastercard International. They are respectively called Verified by Visa (VbV) and Mastercard Securecode.

Many companies are subscribing to the vbv and securecode. What that means is that when you go to such website to pay for an item, you will be taken to another page after you have entered the card details and the 3 digit security at the back of the card. That second page is where you will be required to enter your 4-digit VbV pin (usually 4 figures) or your Mastercard SecureCode (usually 9 alphanumeric digits), depending on which card you are using. A site that is not subscribed to VbV or MC securecode will just complete your transaction after entering the normal card details and the 3 digit security code at the back of the card. But other ones will take you to next step/page where you will enter those further codes.

Now the next thing to know (which the moderators of business section have always being hiding my posts in the past) is how to get the VbV and Mastercard SecureCode. If you have visa card, go to any ATM that has change i-PIN menu and after logging in to ATM, choose change i-PIN and select your choice 4 digit figures. That is what you will be using online as VbV. Note that this menu is different from change PIN menu. This is internet PIN (i-PIN). BankPHB was giving both ATM PIN and i-PIN on paper before without you needing to generate it.

As for MC securecode, when you log into your GTB internet banking, the two blue links at the bottom of the warning page has one to go to your account page (on the left) and click to generate activation code (on the right). So you will click the bottom right link to generate activation code. You will need your GTB hardware token to complete this activation generation. After generating your activation code, you will follow the next page to generate your Mastercard SecureCode, which is usually a 9 alphanumeric digits. That is what you will be using online when a site requires MC securecode to complete your transaction.

The address you registered the card with. It must match the address you registered the card with at UBA or else the transaction will fail.

Re: Your experiences with the UBA Naira Visa Africard by gabriely2k(m): 5:09am On Jan 09, 2013
before you use the card to trade Forex, you need to get this clear. Most Forex platforms, if not all will prefer to allow you withdraw your money into the card with which you deposit your money with them. So, if the card cannot receive payment you are at a disadvantage, because most forex platforms will not allow you to withdraw anywhere else except into the card you first transact with them, i.e your first withdraw will not go anywhere except into the card. So you will have to find out first from the bank if the card can receive payment, if not, sorry, just use to make purchase as you have heard Nairalanders.
However, if the card can accept payment i think i will consider having it. sheeeeeerrrrrrs

Knaruto: did u know that without mastercard secure-code u cant make purchase on some big sites. Like betonmarkets, us-visa lottery, amazon, etc.

The site doesn't have to be big. They just need to subscribe to Verified by Visa or Mastercard SecureCode to require it. If you are truly paying some site for US visa lottery, sorry to say you have been scammed. Authentic and original US visa lottery is free of charge at www.dvlottery.state.gov and so any other paying site is a distraction to newbies.
