So are you slaves to the U.S? Would the U.S send bombs and missiles to Nigeria? Lol you guys are funny. The U.S must also be charged for the indiscriminate killings of innocent children in Syria, that's another human right abuse, isn't it?
Ask yourself why haven't they (US) been charged already?
Maybe you will help charge the US?

EMMAACHILE:
Both of you guys don't get me. If for example, I want to open a drop shipping store on either shopify or woocommerce today, what are my payment options?

I even saw him recommending Us PayPal! Even my worst enemy, I will not advise to use a foreign PayPal account.

Nigeria is limited by the number of payment gateways. The only two I know work here are cashenvoy (30 days funds held) and voguepay (10 days funds held). Is this dropshipping? This means you need to have funds to run an eccomerce platform in Nigeria thus cannot be said to be dropshipping.

I also know a lilttle about stripe atlas where you open a us bank account and register a business before you are put on an international gateway payment.

Summary of all this long English is this; Dropshipping is not suitable for a Nigerian living in Nigeria because your options are seriously limited.
You are the one that is not getting it. I think you should ask the right questions and not to put up wrong conclusion that will mislead people.

So why not reveal the product and other more knowledgeable people can figure out the issue. You are just keeping it to yourself so that you can be the first to exploit it for profit. Nothing wrong with that at all just be honest.
You are right bro. The product is all about FBA (Fulfilment By Amazon) which is not a hidden thing. But operating it from Nigeria is the issue. Now I've revealed it. According to you, let the more Knowledgeable people now figure out how to run it from Nigeria.

They are not a terrible company, they are just doing their job. Nigeria is labeled a bad country, why wont they ask for excess detail? If you can give your hosting company your cpanel details, what's the difference, what the hell will a big company like 2checkout have to do with a small start up, scam you or what? Trust is an issue for every Nigerian, we tend to be extra careful but when that careful tendencies is needed, we relapse.

I spent 2 weeks before they approved me, had to wait for emails from Katy everyday. So much time cos I never knew what they needed. But as it is, if you are applying for them as a new person, I think is no longer possible.
You may be right. But I still think they 2checkout is a terrible company. In fact, very terrible company! In your case it was just 2weeks. My was actually over a whole month! They wasted my time so much, and just about when they were supposed to approve the account after I provided all the docs they ever wanted, they came up with a very silly demand that I should give them my website Admin login details. I actually ignored them instead. Yes, I didn't even bother to reply them again till date. Good a thing, they are not the only option.

The company that host my website already have access to all my files. Infact, they are the one keeping and maintaining the website. So it will make no since to refuse giving them my Cpanel details because they already have access to all my files from their end.
But for a third party like 2checkout to ask for my Admin login details all in the name of processing payment on my website is out of order. I mean who does that? Are they the only payment processor around? Is not about being a new startup or an established company. Is about doing things the way it should be done.

Are you trying to tell me that 2checkout is not a terrible company because my company is a small startup? What if facebook want 2checkout to process their payment? Will you also say that facebook should give 2checkout their Cpanel details since they (facebook) can give their hosting provider their Cpanel details? That's very terrible indeed!
Let's call black, black and white, white.

I'm not against them doing their thing the way they want. But I can't take their effort in wasting someone's time and actually tried to gain into another man's privacy.

We know our situation as Nigerians running online business. If they don't want us, that's fine. But they should be bold enough to say so and save us the unnecessary stress.

I still have my account with them that they are yet to approve due to bad and unrealistic demand. You know what? To hell with 2checkout! I will never ever return to them to complete my application because I have already a good option than is far better than them.

Mr man, stop beating around the bush. Which woocommerce payment gateway is available to Nigerians running internationally?
Bro, I have tried really hard to let you understand that with woocomerce, you will be just fine running an international e-commerce store from Nigeria. But all you could come up to say is that I'm beating around the bush?

Well, I will just pretend that you didn't say such.

I think you don't understand theory, so I'm going to give you practical.
You need to know that some of us don't just appear from no where to say what we don't know, but that we actually know what's up.

To further convince/prove to you and anybody that Nigerians at home can actually run an international e-commerce store, I've re-activated the store section of my website (in my signature) which I previously deactivated because like I earlier said, I'm not ready for e-commerce now.

I've put up some few items in that store including a DIY US PayPal account guide. If you need a PayPal personal or business account, you can go over to Kikimat Store and order the guide now with your Credit Card or Bitcoin and open your PayPal account by yourself in less than 1hr.

Now, this Kikimat Store is available internationally, and anybody can order from that store from anywhere in the world. Billed in $$$, and is run on Woocomerce. The store accept Bitcoin and all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, Discover, AmericanExpress etc

Kikimat is operated from Nigeria by a Nigerian at home and therefore prove beyond any atom of doubt that Nigerians at home can actually run an international e-commerce store.

You will want to ask Google which woocomerce payment gateway is available to Nigerians running internationally?

That's not my concern. I was only concern about your erroneous believe/acertion that Nigerians at home cannot run an international e-commerce store.

Lol...easy bro. But if am to answer, 2checkout is and am currently checking out one other
I won't advice anybody to use 2chexkout. They are a hell of a company! I tried using them early this year, but they stress the hell out of me! Finally, after providing all the documents they requested, they then went ahead and asked for my my website Admin login details. Imagine that? I mean what on earth will make a company want to know the Admin login details of another company that they are not providing hosting for? It was crazy. They deliberately wasted my time and finally turned me down by asking for site's admin login details. What then did I do? Of course I'm yet to get back to them till date. Very terrible company.

Thanks for the quick reply, so the PayPal I was talking of is the one to pay for Etsy's listing. I mean do I need both? Or I just need either PayPal or Payoneer. If I need both, how do I get the PayPal biz acct. The stuff is getting tiresome already.
Don't get it complicated bro.
Is a very straight forward thing.

1. Get a Payoneer (this will be used to withdraw your earnings from Etsy)

2. Get a PayPal business account (this will be used in selling your stuffs on Etsy)

3. Get a virtual credit card (VCC) You can use your Payoneer card in place of the VCC (this will be used to complete your shop set up and to pay your listing fees when due)

These are the major things you need to create your Etsy account and set up your shop to start selling and ultimately make some money. Note, you can create your Etsy account without the listed items above. But you can't open your shop to list your products without those items.

Etsy gives you 40 free listings to get started as a new user to their platform. So you don't need to worry about listing fees at this stage. To get your 40 free listings, follow the my invitation to Etsy link at the first page of this thread.

To your question on how to get a PayPal business account?
I offer solution for PayPal business account. Is a paid service. This is a DIY package and is now available in Kikimat Store for $15 only. You can order it with credit card or Bitcoin and get instant access to download the file and create your PayPal business account in less than 1hr. Follow the link in my signature to land on Kikimat

Alternatively, you can contact me directly for it. If you are a member of my facebook group or a registered member of Kikimat, you automatically qualify for a discount price for the package.

Let me know if you have any other issue or something you still don't understand. I will always be available to help the best way I can

Bro, I'm still reading Etsy tuts. Thanks for the good job. Just one question, I have a Nigerian PayPal acct (can pay but can't receive), I applied for payoneer but I've given up hope cos I didn't receive it.

Now, can I register on Etsy as a Nigerian?

Also, some tutorial said they (Etsy) must deposit the money to my bank account.

I'm pretty much confused as I want to find out if it operates like fiverr where I don't have to register any account until I want to make withdrawal.

I plan to start my Etsy shop today so I'm honestly expecting your clarification. Thanks.
Yes, Etsy do direct deposit, and with Payoneer you can receive Etsy payment directly to your US bank account which Payoneer made available to you. This is why Payoneer is a must have. I have already released a step by step guide to get a Payoneer Card in less than 14days on Kikimat (Follow the link in my signature and check under general business discussion for the free tutorial)

You can't use the Nigeria PayPal account for Etsy. You need a PayPal account that can receive money and it must be a PayPal business account.

Hi Cosmas, please the answer you gave on page 2 is not so clear, see the answer below

''good question. Payoneer is not enough. The reason is because customers use Etsy Payment and PayPal to buy products and items on Etsy.
Now, not every country including Nigeria is supported by Etsy payment and they are left with the PayPal option to sell on Etsy.

What this mean is that if you are from a country that is not supported by Etsy payment, then you will have to use PayPal to sell on Etsy.

This is where PayPal comes in and why Payoneer is not enough''

Understand?


There is a page you said payoneer is okay, now you said payoneer is not enough
since customers use paypal to buy product, can they pay into my payoneer account? must it be paypal to paypal account?
what is the essence of the VCC (virtual card) if i have a payoneer card and a paypal card? must i have paypal and vcc to work on etsy? or can paypal and payoneer work together on etsy?

I have a payoneer already that's why i am asking cos i am confused.

Thanks for your support
You don't need to be confused. You will need both Payoneer and PayPal to sell and cash out on Etsy.
PayPal is what buyers will use to buy your stuffs on Etsy
While Payoneer is what you will use to withdraw your earnings from Etsy.

VCC is a requirement to complete your registration and setting up of your shop. Payoneer card may work. But I can't guarantee it because I use a VCC to set up my account and not Payoneer card. Although I also have a Payoneer Card. You will want to give it a trial wih your Payoneer card.

Let me know if you have any challenge. I will always be here to help you out.

Cool your temper bro.
What payment gateway systems are available to Nigerians running an international store? Let's start from there
The primary reason why many people are complaining about payment gateways on this thread is because everybody here is sticking to Shopify.

If you just want a single store that can accept credit card and sell globally, then that is not an impossibility. Have you heard of Woo? I mean woocomerce. With Woocomerce, you can achieve just that.

You can even sell Print On Demand (POD) products like T-shirts, leggings etc in your store and have it shipped to your customers in almost any country of the world by your Print company without your intervention.

And by full-fledged e-commerce store, I don't mean a single store that you can use to sell your products globally. I actually meant a multi-vendor store that have the ability to let other people create their own stores and sell on your own turn key e-commerce platform just like what eBay, Etsy and Amazon are doing.

As a matter of fact, I'm planning to launch such an e-commerce platform in the near future because right now my hands are tied down with my social network that I'm building. Otherwise I would have started it already right here in Nigeria. The future is very bright bro.

So forget whatever you are thinking bro.
Shopify is not the only e-commerce solution to run an international e-commerce store. There are other options with unlimited possibilities.

This is very wrong! Nigerians at home can actually run a full-fledged e-commerce store, accept credit card and bitcoin payment in their stores and sell globally guaranteed.

All you need is to know how to go about it.
Do your research well before you make such strong and harsh conclusion bro

With this plan, you don't have to worry about paying N2,000 at once to subscribe as you can easily do a weekly subscription of N500.

You will now be able to subscribe to this 4GB data plan for N2,000 valid for 28days. Now, select option 2 which is N500 for 1GB. (Make sure you have airtime on your line). N500 will be deducted from your balance and 1GB will be given to you to browse for 7days.

Now at the end of the 7days, subscribe again to the 1GB for N500. We now have 2GB for N1,000 in 14days.

Just follow the steps below and you will be on your way to enjoying this cool offer from Airtel. This offer is exclusive to Airtel subscribers only. So if you don't have Airtel SIM, is time to get one.

Note: this is not a cheat or some illegal activity. It is very legal and doesn't require any VPN or the likes.

Without wasting time, I'm going to take us straight to the main thing.

Now, to get 4GB data for N2,000, you must be on the Smartrybe plan. To migrate to Smartrybe, Dia *312# and send. Select option one to migrate. This plan also have free night browsing from 12am-5am at N25.

Once you are successfully migrated to the Smartrybe, dia *312# and send again.

No, Jobboy is not a scam site.
But sometimes bad people entered the network and game the system.
Just like it normally happens here on Nairaland where some bad people scam others of their hard earned money in the name of selling one product or the other. That doesn't make Nairaland a scam.

If you check very well, the said report is way back 2011. That's over 6years now. If Jobboy was a scam site, there is no way they would've continue to exist and funtion till now after that report was posted online. And the complaint is from an employer whose job was not done as expected. It also happen to employees where some bad emplyers refuse to pay for work done. That does't mean there are no honest people using the site and getting paid.

Nairaland is a free-for-all forum where anyone can contribute anything pulled from anywhere. That's a hallmark of all online forums.

When you create a blog and call yourself a blogger, the original idea is for you to address things from a fresh perspective. There's nothing wrong with copying other people's information, adding your own opinion and turning them into something unique. Of course, most successful bloggers don't say new things; they only present already known things from a unique angle.

Have you ever wondered why some people buy 4 to 5 different newspapers daily, despite the fact that they would report the same news and events? It's because the readers love to read from different angles, and that's how professional blogging should be done.

Whoever can't stand out with his/her writing or ideas has no business with blogging! And it's no surprise that such people rarely succeed at it.
Very correct. Blogging is more of a personal thing while forum is more of general thing.
Is easy to make a forum pupolar due to it's concept than a blog.
