lol, the joke is on bitter Obi.

LegendHero:


What is a credit card and how does it work? Let’s start from there.

Lol how does dollar ATM relates to a Dollar credit card? You don’t even understand the post so how can you even discuss about it?

seborrhic:

What is even the win here?
Is the card not going to be funded in dollars?

LegendHero:


Yes, so how is that not useful?

Did they say you can’t spend the dollar card for Nigeria businesses?

Lizzysamuel:


LegendHero, what a funny boy😂.

So we should keep our dollars then? Since Amex is coming to change our currency to dollar right?

amaridigital:


Leave them. They think this is GTB or Ecobank dollar debit card. Most Nigerians don't know what credit card is. What we have here mostly is debit card both naira and dollars. AMEX is acceptable worldwide just like Visa and Mastercard. I'm glad an omoluabi is behind this as usual. They are the king of Fintech and the service economy in Nigeria while the hateful tribe mostly sell fan yogo and dirty used clothes calling it business

Kingnap:
Before we celebrate...
So how do I get this card?
Can anyone just apply and get the card?
Can an average Nigerian access the card?

Putindbutt:
Bitter Obi and Obi supporters are saying investors avoing the country.

Its amazing the number of nonentities and nitwits attacking you, and this shows that a lot of Nigerians are actually worse than their leaders.

When a company brings a facility to another country, their products or services is not for everyone.

This service will help a lot of Nigerians who needs capital or who earns in dollars. There are a lot of Nigerian freelancers that earns in dollars, and I believe this will help them. Credit cards does not mean you have to owe the bank. You can have $1,000 cash, and then put that on a credit card. As long as you replace the money before due date, you won't pay interest except for the monthly charges. The credit card can be used to pay for your LinkedIn premiums, buy connects on Upwork, pay for Apple subscriptions, etc, without having to use your naira Mastercard. This saves you money. You can purchase travel tickets etc without breaking a sweat. Those who need this service will utilize it. And hopefully, Amex will employ Nigerians to manage this business.

Imagine earning in dollars as a freelancer and you travel to the U.S. Unfortunately, your client has not paid and you need to make some purchase. You can simply use the credit card, and when your client pays, you return the money. Using Naira Mastercard overseas is not often the best. By the way, credit cards also offer some perks like hotel points, airport VIP lounge access, etc

Haven't been to Nigeria in 8 years, but every time I come on Nairaland, the amount of illiterates here shows Nigeria is in trouble.

Glock22:


Why did you cover the chip?

caracas:

This one na investment?
This BATeria ppl sef….

LegendHero:


What is an investment?

If as a small business, I have access to $10k credit card that I can spend easily abroad and repay back within some certain time frame or at least pay the monthly minimum interest, is that not an investment?

The money AMEX is bringing to the Nigerian market to service that, is that not investment?

I know you have never used a credit card before, so you won’t understand. It’s only poor people that sees access to credit as a disadvantage.

LegendHero:

Company bringing investment and you are still very bitter. Bitterness and bitter Obi supporters are like 5&6.

Below is my two Amex card (both corporate and personal). Bringing this to Naija and giving business the luxury to have $10k limit for starters is a good step. You don’t need to be bitter about every news like Obi.

Electorate:


Stop lying, judging from your childish and senseless comments on nairaland, You are not wise enough to have an American Express credit card...any body can post any picture found online and claim it as theirs.

write your username and date on a paper and snap it with the cards, I wan check something.

Lizzysamuel:


Oni Gbese, which company is bringing which investment?

This little boy and his tantrums.

It's just like celebrating over First Bank dollar cards😂.

When they're outrightly in the country to milk their own cow because of the rate of Japa and oversea travels.

How much are they investing? I dare you to show me.

Grow up boy

LegendHero:


So how much will you give me if I do that? Bet your money on it.

Or will you agree to deactivate your account if I do?

I am waiting!

Electorate:


You want me to bet with you to show you are not a liar? You already confirmed your lied no need for a bet.

LegendHero:


You never know the technology out there. The chip is the brain box of the card so anything fit happen.

LegendHero:


No fall to cowardice please. You’re 100% sure I am faking it so why are you scared of giving your word or money to support your assertion?

If you can bet on your account now that you’ll deactivate, I will just proceed do do anything you want me to do.

Not that your account is useful to anyone, but I just think there should be consequences for delusional post.

You should be bold. I am waiting!
