How to Open a Nigerian PayPal
Account in 10 Minutes
eliasportal.net
On Tuesday, June 17, 2014, PayPal
finally made good its earlier promise to allow Nigerians use its service. But,
the development came with restrictions: you can only send money to other PayPal accounts (not
those owned by fellow Nigerians, though) or make online payments for products
and services. You cannot receive or withdraw funds. So, if you need a PayPal
account for receiving funds from abroad, I guess this development will leave
you disappointed rather than impressed. (I once shared a smart trick for
opening and verifying a PayPal account that will allow you to receive and
withdraw funds. Click here to read the article.) But you have every reason to be excited if you’re one
of those who need the service for making online payments. The restrictions
notwithstanding, creating your own Nigerian PayPal account has its benefits.
With it, you can pay online for products and services such as Fiver gigs, e-books, mobile apps, software packages, website and blog themes, WordPress
plugins, mini importation products, and so on.
Opening and verifying your PayPal account is very simple. Just follow these
steps: Visit www.paypal.com/ng
Click “Sign up for free” Click “Open
an account” under the “Individual” tab. (Don’t create a business account unless
you have a strong reason to do that. You might be required to provide certain
business documents that you may not have.) Fill the form and click “Agree and
create account” On the security challenge page, enter the code displayed in the
space provided and click “Continue” Provide your credit card details as required
on the next page, and click “Continue” And that’s all. You’ve created your own
PayPal account. If your you receive an error message regarding your credit card
details, click “Continue to my account” and try to verify your account again
using the “Get verified” link. Below is a
screenshot of my own verified PayPal account. So, get online and register
yours. The whole process takes less than 10 minutes (depending on your
connection speed, though).Any questions? Share them in the comments section.
