POS merchants are also ordinary Nigerians just like you too . Just that,na connection separate una two . And one of the major difference between both of you is that POS merchants ready to press money for banker hand but you'd rather want to stand in the queue to wait for it to get to your turn

Press money and watch how mint notes wash your palms . Sorry, but this is Nigeria for you. A country where almost every single sector strives on corruption

I’ve noticed that almost all the POS merchants in my area always have mint ₦200, ₦500, and even ₦100 notes. Yet, I’ve tried several times to get mint notes myself, especially for important occasions, but they’re nowhere to be found.

Now, POS merchants are charging as much as 35% of your money just to give you mint notes.

Imagine paying ₦20,000 just to get ₦50,000 in mint ₦200 notes.

Why is this currency so easily available to POS merchants but so difficult for ordinary Nigerians to access?

The period you see these mints, go to atm machine you will surely get it, especially Fidelity Bank

floss:
Yes but it’s unofficial… if you have a banker that’s working in the bulk room frequently, he/she can be paying you with mint depending if the branch manager has no interest in it …

Bulk room teller cannot pay you with MINT, Moreso, bulk room teller do not pay to customer. The custodian of MINT is Operation manager/Head, Teller. Even Branch Manager will have to seek Operation Manager consent for MINT payment for a customer of HNI

if you have account with Jaiz Bank,all you need to do is fill the withdrawal slip and tell them you want mint, they will give you. Islamic Banks don't sell local currency be it mint or not because it's Haram.

Misplaced priorities if you ask me.


We went for a burial and someone suggested we “mint” ₦50k so we could spray ₦75k.
I asked a simple question: Why throw away ₦20k just to impress people for a few minutes?
I dismissed the mint guy, sat down, enjoyed the party, and after everything, I called our friend and asked for her account number. I sent her ₦70k directly.
Later, I told her I would have sprayed ₦50k at the price of ₦70k
I asked her, Which would you prefer me spraying ₦50k and losing ₦20k to showmanship, or you receiving the full ₦70k?
She said, you this calculating people ehnnn.


That’s my confusion with this culture. Why do many Nigerians place so much value on minting and spraying money just for optics? What exactly does it add prestige? validation? noise?
If the goal is to bless someone, bless them properly.
If the goal is to impress people, then let’s call it what it is.
Sometimes it’s not about being stingy it’s about being intentional.

Softmen:

Timitete:
In the area i am. there is a bank ATM that dispense mints like 1,000,500 and 200.
These POS guys do go with more than 6 cards to get the 200naira mint cos it cant pay u more than 40k per card.
They now go and be selling it to those who needs it for an extra pay

dominique:
They definitely do, they also sell to those that exchange mint notes at weddings or where do those people get those notes from?

Petrzoom:
Who are the people paying 20k to collect 50k.
