That’s not why they shut down..they have an ongoing fraud case in Kenya where they have been accused of open up to 50 bank s to launder money

Virtual dollars ? South Africa indeed is the giant of Africa . The notable and big time financial institutions are dead scared of Nigeria markets, hence we have something like this .

It has always been South Africa. Govt just used the media to deceive people. GDP per capita is more important and has more impact compared to just GDP

You can bet on someone you don't know. Be more logical. Avoid sentiment!

I can bet my remaining 400 dollars in barter app that you don't have a PVC.
70% of "obidients" do not have PVC.
I'm afraid this election would be won by Tinubu.

We are writing to inform you that effective Sunday, 17th July 2022, all our Virtual Dollar cards will be unavailable for any transactions and purchases. This is due to an update from our card partner, which will cause the card service to be unavailable for an extended period of time.

Here is a breakdown of what to expect from 17th July:

1. You will be unable to make online and in-store payments and purchases using your Virtual Dollar Card(s).

2. You will be unable to fund existing Virtual Dollar Card(s).

3. Your existing Virtual Dollar Card(s) will be terminated, and the corresponding balance will be credited to your payment balance.

4. You will be unable to create new Virtual Dollar Card(s).

Urgent next steps:

1. We recommend that you unlink your Dollar Card(s) from any recurring payments, and replace with ....

To counteract this, find a genuine online company you can directly move your Naira to and from there Get dollars and use it to fund foreign Virtual Card. The company could be a FX Firm.

You can even do Bortherless online split Arbitrage from this.

Skrill dey, Neteller dey etc.

Well, the laws they are using to Bind you and I is what you only need to Bind them too. Just Think Outside The Box, You Will SURELY DISCOVER THE KNOW HOW.

It's attempt by FG and CBN to squash the Peter Obi 100billion online donation thing. . Since they have crippled cryto currency which aided END SARS, they don't want to dull themselves any longer.

Anything to kill that movement.

They used black market rate and you fund it with Naira.


You fund your naira card and flutterwave converts it to dollar at black market rate + charges. It's not cheap one bit

Our government too is not trying.....Students outside Nigeria have long been disappointed with using their normal debit cards which was supposed to be previously functional, cards are blocked.... This is the first shocker u get outside Nigeria when u plan to use the ATM machines..... I hope our dollar cards are working if not, it means Flutterwave is just reacting to what is coming or has already come.

I hope Flutterwave can still work for transfers within Africa?

I thought they said Upgrade o! It also affected PayDay as well. His twitter post said his card would be deleted but I didn't get that notification from Barter or PayDay. Can anybody truly confirm from a news source.

There are a million cases in UAE whereby phished credit cards were used on flutterwave. Nigerians are the crooks not that company.

They have picture visual card for online payment?
grandstar:
I am sure their financial partners dropped them following the money laundering case in Kenya.

I have about $4 left on my dollar card.

I learnt www.chippercash.com is a good alternative. Nevertheless, I am really gutted.

And From what I'm reading, it seems chipper cash has also shut down theirs.
Please does anyone know any alternative to these two?

At all. Gloating on another's failure doesn't make you successful.
