GET UBA AFRICARD AND USE AS CREDIT CARD

How To Get the UBA AfriCard

Wondering how I got my Africard within 24 hours? Well, I walked in to the nearby UBA branch office and told the lady at the Customer Care desk that I need the UBA Africard.  She asked me of the ID card I have and I told her that I have a VALID driver’s license. She also asked me if I have N1000 with me and I told her I have it. She also asked if I have Passport Photograph , I answered "yes".

She then gave me two forms to fill, in which I filled in my Personal details and the details of my ID (My driver’s license). Inside the form, you will see an option asking you if want a Non-personalized or a personalized one. The personalized one comes with your name embossed on the card while the generic one doesn’t. I  personally went for the the non personalized one because I didn’t want to wait for extra days before I get my card.

I returned the form to her and waited for the processing. After processing it, she gave me a teller, told me to fill it and took it to the cashier, together with my 1000naira notes. After depositing the 1000naira, I went back to the Customer care rep and the lady told me to wait a little more so I can get my card.

After some few minutes, the Visa prepaid card was issued to me. I changed the pin there in the bank ATM . I was even surprised they left N400 in the card. That simply means N600 was deducted to process the card as at the time I received mine.



I can now run more campaigns on Facebook, Google and even shop online at Aliexpress.com. I have also successfuly used the card at Hostgator.com.


NOTE:

1. You can also use your International passport as means of Identity as alternative to the Driver's license.
2. You can withdraw funds from ATM machines with this Visa card.
3 It is NOT COMPULSORY you have a bank account with UBA bank for you to get the Prepaid Visa Card.

I hope this info helps
