The authentication information you provided does not match our records for this card. To protect against unauthorised use, your card can not currently be used at participating online stores.

Please any help??

princeuk21: I just did that thanks a lot my card is now set and also thanks to godwin I also have a new info for u guys should in case ur card get blocked send an email to CFC@ubagroup.com and not CDs@ubagroup.com.

presegsADESIDA:


First activation should be done sequentially these ways:

1.Visit https://www.gtpsecurecard.com/UBA/Login.aspx with the details given to you and follow instruction that will be displayed.
Through with that?

2.Ask the customer care in the branch you are their ATM that works in changing UBA Africard PIN as it seems that not all their ATMs can do that as you carefully and correctly locate the ATM.

Change your ATM PIN only and don't bother yourself with weblogin pin.

You mean you used your card to verify your Payza account?

arbitrage:

That is correct! Not only can you use your UBA Africard to verify your Payza, it can be done instantly if you take note of the Verified by Visa page it takes you to. So that you will not need wait till it shows on your bank card's statement. I even linked my Union Bank visa card to Payza same way (when UBN started allowing spending internationally from their naira card). I can fund (upload money to) my Payza instantly from either the UBA Africard or the UBN Visa card that I attached. Other Nigerian bank cards can do same except Mastercards because Alertpay was accepting both cards but Payza has stopped MC when they took over Alertpay and only accepts Visa cards now.

presegsADESIDA:

Great and can you please expantiate on how to fund UBA Africard account from any account that has Internet Banking Fund Transfer facility..

arbitrage:

You basically need to subscribe to UBA direct (their internet banking platform) or U-mobile (their mobile banking). I prefer mobile banking because I am so lazy that I don't want to get up and sit in front on my computer. I prefer and I do most of my banking on my bed using my phone. But either of the two will do. So from your Udirect or Umobile platforms, you can transfer to the UBA prepaid visa Africard. An extension of that is if your money is not kept in your UBA account but in another bank, you may need to first do internet banking transfer from whichever bank to your UBA account, and from the UBA account to the Africard.

Though I could do transfer from my UBA to the Africard, I still went ahead to add my other bank card to payza so that I am able to upload funds to payza from other card in addition to uploading from Africard. Both are instant funding of Payza (Alertpay).

presegsADESIDA:

Good but I've you ever tried sending money to your Africard from your other bank's account such as that of GTBank?

Why did you add another card aside UBA to your Payza?Do you normally use it to fund it or what and can someone withdraw from Payza to any of those cards attached?

arbitrage:

please take note; i observe over the months in all your posts that you typed "have you" as "I've you" whereas the two are not the same. I've means I have.

back to your questions, i have transferred from other banks including etranzact pocketmoni to my africard but as i said earlier, i first put the fund in my uba account because the africard account is not a regular bank account that other banks can see and send to. hence, the reason i opened a uba savings account. from the uba savings account, i was able to send to africard.

i added another card to my payza in addition to africard because i usually have my source of fund in other banks rather than uba savings or africard. hence, no need to transfer in two or three steps before getting to payza. hope that answer is clear enough.

Trut: UBA didn't collect money (N750) from me for their Visa Africard. I want to the nearest UBA close to my house (with my Driver License and PHCN bill) last 2 weeks and requested for the PERSONALIZED Vias Africard, they lady in charge gave me a form to fill, after filling form, she told me to come the following week (last week) with the Card fee (N750). Due to the nature of my business, i was unable to go bank and collect the card last week. When i went to bank today, i met a different lady who attended me, she gave me the Card without asking for money (N750).

presegsADESIDA:
