Yesterday,the news broke out from Nigeria's fintech company's CEO Tayo Oviousu (Paga). He stated that Paga had teamed up with PayPal to bring to Nigerians a way to accept and convert USD to naira from PayPal via Paga.

The problem is that a lot of Nigerians are completely against the move and are encouraging a lot of people to boycott PayPal.

The question now is. Will you use PayPal now that they're back?

What's your reason? We all agree that PayPal owes us nothing right?

I personally can't start counting the number of opportunities I couldn't take advantage of due to PayPal's blacklisting of Nigeria. Lots of foreign and genuine affiliate marketing opportunities all paying only via PayPal. But most Nigerians couldn't take advantage. Are we even talking about some foreign clients we couldn't work with due to inability to accept payments through PayPal? I can go on and on.

After over 20 years of such restrictions, what suddenly changed? To h£ll with PayPal !

Well you're right. But then it's either your clients were strictly requesting to pay via PayPal or you just had know other means you could share with them. Ukraine's PayPal restriction was lifted in 2022, does that mean Ukrainians were not receiving money outside Ukraine?

I haven't said Nigerians had no other options. You should have spent some more time to read what I wrote. If you observe, we didn't really have many options in Fintech industry for global transactions. If we did, there were still a lot of processes to secure one. Only real online entrepreneurs who have been in this online struggle since the past 2 decades will understand.

Let's boycott PayPal
