Opay is a mobile money service launched my Opera in 2017 as part of its $100 million investment in Africa for the growth of the digital economy. The service maid its way to Nigeria in 2018 with the acquisition of Telnet Nigeria Limited’s mobile money platform Paycom.

Opay is designed for Android users to make fast, cheap and secure transactions from the comfort of their smartphone. This service also allows you to receive and send money direct to bank account without actually having a bank account.

How to get a free POS from Opay

Unlike the steps to become an agent which has no major requirements, getting a POS machine has some basic requirements which you can meet within the space of two to four days.

To get your POS, you are simply required to make transactions totaling #2.5million to #3.5 million within the space of one month of becoming an agent.

Will I still get the POS if I don’t make up to the amount?

Yes, you will be able to get the POS after getting to the stated amount.

How long does it take to get the POS after I meet the requirement?

The POS is issued within the space of six to eight (6-8) weeks of meeting the said requirements.

Other requirements

You are required to complete a form and submit the form alongside your utility bill and a valid ID and your BVN.

Update on Requirements to Get Opay POS for Free

Last month(June, 2018), I promised a reader by name Quadri in the comment section to get some update from the company regarding new polices and update on requirements to get the POS, and below is the unedited response from the company.

“Please be informed that the company’s policy states that you are expected to perform over 150 successful bank transfer in counts and N3,500,000 in volume monthly. This calculation starts from the 1st day of the current month”.

From the information above, you can see that much changes have not been made on the requirements but the transaction counts was not included before but now, you can see that in their response. Meanwhile, so many persons have complained about not getting response after sending an email, I am looking out for other ways and  will update that soon.

Final words

Opay is fast gaining grounds in the mobile money sector in Nigeria and Africa at large and you can benefit from their growth by becoming one of their agents.
