How To Get The UBA Africard Visa Debit Card For Online Shopping

The former Zenith Bank Visa card now UBA Debit Visa Card called Africard is another good way for you to make payments online from as a Nigerian. Some people sometimes call  it UBA Africard Credit Card but it’s a Debit card.

UBA Debit Visa Card is a credit card that you can use to make payments on the web, withdraw cash at ATM and make payments at PoS terminals.

What will be require of me in the bank?
Utility bill (PHCN Bill), recognized ID (National I’d card, International Passport or Driver’s Licence) and a passport-sized photograph. You will be given a  form to fill and that is the beginning of the process to get the UBA debit Visa card called Africard.

Note: The PHCN bill must bear your surname but if  your name is not on the PHCN bill, then you need to take the recent PHCN bill receipt you just been given for the month instead.

Go through the form that will be given to you and just fill it carefully. You will get to a point where you will be asked to choose services to disable amongst ATM, Web and PoS, be careful not to disable Web because that’s the purpose I think you want to get it. Except if you have a different mission. I will even advice you  not to tick any option at all. Also, you will be asked the type of card you want.

Types of UBA Debit Visa Card?
There are two options there but if you want to get your card that day, don’t choose the personalized option. The personalized simply means that you want your name on the card and this might take up to a week to process but the unpersonalized one gets ready immediately but it won’t bear your name on it. Instead, it will just bear “UBA Cardholder” like in the one above.

After the information you filled on the form have been confirmed, you will be given the account number associated with your card. Pay into this account and it will be credited almost immediately. Now you can start using your UBA Africard Debit Card Online. Getting a Credit Card in Nigeria to make payment online is still very difficult but these are very good solutions at this time to get your own credit card in Nigeria.

I have used this card to purchase a tablet PC on the internet and also bought a Digital camera from kasuwa.com.ng the Nigeria online store. With this following experience I have gotten from this card, you can also use it on any website that accept Visa card.
