Go to ATM, na POS people full the line with more than 15 ATM Cards per person. Normal people like you and me won't see money to withdraw.

POS operators are part of the reasons for this scarcity, same POS people will rip you off when you go to withdraw cash from them.
Stop spreading lies there’s no money in ATMs around Ring road not to talk of withdrawing it, Abi na paper dem wan withdraw?

No... May be a mushroom pos outlet. Even from 50 atm cards, how much do you think you will withdraw altogether?

The same Obaseki who refused to set up taskforce to checkmate the fuel pump price in Benin they sold it 700 before protest broke out, now all banks in Benin don’t even have cash on their ATM yet POS is the problem, is when the people can’t find cash at the ATM then they will result to pay whatever charges POS operators are charging them

Who told u that their profit is too high, do u know how much they are buying the naira?

Don't they know that POS workers buy money. Although their profits is just too high. They should strike a balance.

Filling stations are also selling cash to POS operatives, let them go to filling stations too.

Stupidity. What concerns POS agents with failures of CBN governor and Bullhari? People that spent hours, days, looking for the money.... now you want to regulate their charges, are they banks? Or did you provide the naira they are trading? Yeye leaders always leaving the diseases and chasing symptoms. Ndi'ara

Misplaced priority.
Set your taskforce for bank managers and leave POS people alone.
They are equally buying the naira note from the black market as well.

More hardship about to hit the streets, Pos operators will be forced to close their kiosk and stay indoors while the masses will now find it more difficult to get cash. grin

These idiots in power do not understand the law of supply and demand. The POS operators are not the source of our problem as they depend on the banks as much as us. The POS machines and the source of money are supplied by banks. Assist the CBN in their current crack down of banks hoarding this currency. If you clamp down on POS operators they would go under ground and the situation will be further exacerbated. If not for them it would have been worse.

Re: Naira Notes Scarcity: Edo Govt To Set Up Special Task Force On Pos Agents by 2aces(m): 11:37pm On Feb 06, 2023
Am not an operator, but I know most of these pos operators do buy the cash they are dispensing from both individuals who queue at atm points and sell what they withdraw or bank staff, so all their expenses trickle down to the end user.

How do you activate a POS device?

Can you just buy it online and use it? Does it has sim card or internet?

I want one for Business (not this agents business but to collect money for a local business).

If a Nigerian Police can have one, I am sure it is not too technical?
