There are many ways to get things done. Some are cheaper, faster, more convenient than others. While there are many ways to owning a UBA and/or Ecobank bank account, what I am going to discuss in this post is how to own a UBA/Ecobank account plus international Visa card after spending 12,000frs CFA.
I am only sharing my experience and hope that somebody learns from it and that online entrepreneurs in my locality in particular will use it to meet their online financial transactions needs just as I have been doing since I knew about e-connect.
Now let me tell the story of how I now own a bank account and an international Visa card. I learnt about a network marketing business called e-connect.
You may want to learn more about e-conect but in brief e-connect is an affiliate network marketing business which involves just word of mouth and no buying and selling of goods providing an opportunity that orchestrates you unto a platform of other business opportunities.
I registered with e-connect by buying their registration form for 10,000 FRS CFA and that was it. I automatically had the privilege to enjoy the benefits of signing up for e-connect which include the following:
1. Choosing one of UBA and Ecobank for the creation of a Bank account.
In the bank account creation process, you are free to choose;
whether to have their Visa Card or not,
the type of card,
whether to do online banking or not,
whether to have a check book or not, and other related things.
The only thing you don not choose is the type of account for those who prefer UBA - current account. This could sound as a minus but it is really a plus for a salaried worker who could choose to let his/her employer wire their salary directly into their bank account.
2. Choosing a pack of items worth 5,000 FRS CFA out of five packs.
These items are present at the points of registration with e-connect and you get to take them home for personal consumption.
The packs to choose from are:
Pack 1
- Large Bath- Dish washing soap
Pack 2
- Mopping bucket- Dish washing soap
Pack 3
- cooking oil- Dish washing soap
- Two spoons
Pack 4
- Paper napkin- cooking oil
- spoons, sieve
Pack 5
- Body wash- shampoo/conditioner
Wishing you a great experience with e-connect.

ReplyDeleteGreetings.
ReplyDeleteI wish to know the type of card I should acquire in order to do business online, make payments and also receive money online without opening an account in UBA bank. I also need to know what it takes to have that.
Thanks, I am waiting for your reply.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteWhile this is not UBA blog, I still advice on their services that may meet your needs thus the existence of this post.
To answer your question, get a Visa Card (associated to a current account) from UBA and signup for a Payoneer account. As you receive online payments into Payoneer, you can withdraw from any UBA ATM with the Visa Card.
Hope it helps out.
