Here's how to receive and fulfill orders in Dropshipping as a Nigerian.

step 1- apply for payoneer card (after receiving your card, activate, and fund with $100

step 2- login to your payoneer card account dashboard and click on the card details and you will see a USA /UK Bank Account link to your card. copy out the details.

step 3- go to stripe.com and register using any UK address from Google and the Bank details from payoneer card account. your stripe account will be active.

step 4- link your stripe account to your shopify store or shopify. build your store.

step 5-use same payoneer card to pay for order fulfillment on amazon or Alixpress. by this you are turning the wheel. because stripe will transfer your earnings from sales into your USA Bank Account attached to payoneer card and you can use same payoneer card to fulfill orders.


advice : always use facebook first as traffic source because of definite targeting. go for passionate niches. always outsource order fulfillment or use software.

note : you need at least $200 as capital to start.

I think this help.

CosmicJames:

You can start on your own platform using Shopify, Woocommence, BigCommence etc.
Or use existing platforms like eBay or Amazon. With proper research, training and mastery of the subject, you will be on your way to financial freedom.

CosmicJames:

Why was your PP blocked? You login without VPN or due to large volume of fund/transaction?

mchenzy:


I forgot that my phone VPN wasn't on when I logged in, the next time I used VPN, they requested verification. Tried all but nothing...

CosmicJames:

I thought as much. That's how PP works. As soon as there is a change in IP address, they must ask for verification just to confirm is still you the rightful owner that is still accessing the account. Mostly is a phone verification. Looks like you didn't have a chance to verify it via phone? Or it was another form of verification they ask for?

mchenzy:


SSN shit...gave them my EIN I got from IRS but they were adamant. Anyways, is a done issue.

CosmicJames:

OK. Next time try to be very careful to avoid such situation. I'm believing some $$$$ will soon overtake that your PP account. I no wan hear stories with regard to your PP fund o

There should be a way to resolve this payment processing issue, @mchenzy can you help out? @NKHAY Your help is needed as well.

mchenzy:


[b]Thank you very much...leave them. Everyone of them wants to enter into dropshipping, yet they dont have finance to do fb ads or simple social networking, even if you try teaching them free, at the end they mess up. Before i entered into this i reasearched myself and i had to pay forum fees and a mentor. Yet i thought i have learnt all things, i didnt know i havent.

In all my journey with nairalanders over this dropshipping, only one person out of 20+ taught me what i didnt know, damn i was shocked...i openingly told him, he has taught me a new thing. Upon till now we've been exchanging ideas everyday and am happy we have such an understanding. Those who dont know shit will blast in talking shit, they wont chill and at the end they discover they ain't got anything.

Let's say you don't charge for teaching, why will you teach someone who doesn't have finance to start anything, is a waste of time. None will do research, none has money to even pay as they know they know nothing, so i will waste my time teaching someone and is nothing to write home about...f**k that!!

Do your research, have your fb ads money, have your money for your domain and other socials...lets talk then, even if i dont get to charge you, at least i know i have sown a seed. If you dont have these things f**k off and keep to yourself. Dropshipping is not for the individual who is not ready...Enough is enough.[/b]

I'm currently having issues with which payment gateway to use, I have my store built and loaded with products already. I previously tried using shopify payments using my brother in the US ssn n bank details, I successfully sold 2 products of about $77 but then dey blocked my account telling me the bank details couldn't be verified cos it didn't match my credit card details. Can anyone help with which payment gateway to use? 2checkout is being a b*tch with their long process

iamdutch:
and for the ssn?

mchenzy:


2checkout is no longer answering new accounts from Nigeria. They havent responded to new merchant applications for a shopify store. I really cant say why it is so.

Just get a Payoneer Account, they will give you a bank account. Seeing that you already setup your store and is making sales already, using stripe payment might be a bit difficult cos you'd have to provide tax details for previous month(s) transactions. Get an EIN from USA IRS; hope you already have an idea of how to do so, fill up the SSA form, provide your tax details, ask them to fax your EIN confirmation letter over to you( usually 10 mins delivery tops) and fill up stripe account as a US citizen with the details you have above except address which you did have to buy or use fake one till you have money to buy. Finally, YCEE ft Reekie baby your shopify store...

Hope this helps,
Regards.

iamdutch:

Is very easy to start dropshipping. Just built mine yesterday with just $4 BitCoin... awkward? Yea it is.... only one person here in Nairaland knows about my dropshipping.

The way I see it is this, don't share anything till it has grown. That's the hard lesson I have learnt.

Edit: Ask me questions and I will answer them but when it goes too much to big secrets I won't answer them...fair enough.

mchenzy:


He's right and wrong...for 2checkout payment processing approval takes time and your customers can't checkout. Payoneer through stripe your customers can.

14days trial is useless for any beginner and an intermediate, you need much money 4 adverts to cover, and I never used it but used 65days which is still on and I have made profits to even pay for 3 years shopify sub. Shopify is very easy to create things with, added with many plugins to aid any seller which is beginner friendly.

AkProsper:

Hello. pls how can I get the 65day trial instead of 14?

Good evening....I just come accros this thread and i see it as a way God answers my prayer

I have a set up shopify store with products...but i am faced with the capital big challenge of payment gateway...2checkout rejected my application.....Paypal need verification for my account..the US number that i used for my paypal has been blocked so i cant verify.

I have a payoneer card but dont know payment gateway to use.

I read through this thread and i saw something about EIN....please can u help me solve my problem? i will be grateful...whatsapp 0 8 1 3 0 7 1 4 3 7 2......email bukkymba at gmail dot com.

thanks

CosmicJames:

Gee, long time. Actually 2checkout is responding to application from Nigeria. I did had a long discussion with them to approve my account with them. I provided all the docs they requested. However, they went ahead to request for my website Admin login details which I'm yet to respond to. I'm just wondering why they are asking for such info. Besides, they have a really long application process. I'm already considering using PayPal as payment gateway on my site.

Already I know how to create the PayPal business account to use as payment gateway ➕ the SSN/EIN issue. But I was referring 2checkout over PayPal. But since 2checkout is acting funny, I will have to use PayPal instead.

mchenzy:

No idea, hasn't worked for a long time.

AkProsper:

Thank you.
Please I've sent you a PM.

mchenzy:


Maybe....but if you havent done your research, and cant work for yourself round the clock, write for yourself and have distinct skill that will relate to dropshipping... dont contact me, dont need to make my work a problem for myself.

CosmicJames:
Nice thread with people that have knowledge on what they are talking about.
Dropshipping is one of the 3 major online businesses I set aside to concentrate on next year. The issue of accepting payment is the area I'm still working on. I need to fix the challenge there to have a smooth operation internationally as a Nigerian. Once the payment issue is fixed, the next thing is $$$.

For those of you that know about Amazon FBA, this is were the real money is with less effort. One big problem with FBA is that it require some huge capital to start. But I recently discover a method that combines dropshipping and FBA and require no capital to start eleminating the barrier of entrance into FBA.

I'm set to make some serious money from this method alone in 2017 once I perfect the system.
