The Virtual Card is almost useless,
created one last year, funded it but I couldn’t use it for any local online transactions.
Tried Jumia and Konga, no joy.
Had to link it to my PayPal account, then selected PayPal as mode of payment before I could use it on Jumia which attracted extra fee
Thanks Prof atleast this one is better it’s coming from a reputable bank, not those ones you get from websites that can give you headache.☝?
