All agents who wish to apply for POS are required to pay N10,000(ten thousand Naira) guarantee fee which will be returned to you after you meet the basic transaction volume of N2,000,000 a month(two million Naira) and a delivery fee which depends on your location. After a successful payment, the agent is issued a POS without delay. You also have the option of a pin pad which will be linked to your agent account.

How to Get a Pin pad
Unlike the POS which only cost the delivery fee, the pin pad cost N20,000 (twenty thousand Naira) or more. The Pinpad device functions just like the POS machine and can be used for withdrawals and deposits but the charges are different.
Pin pad Earning potential
Below is the breakdown of your commission when you use the ReadyCash pinpad:
BAND CHARGE.  AGENT   COMMISSION
1 ₦1000 – ₦10,000 100.    55
2 ₦10,001 – ₦30,000 150.   80
3 Above ₦30,000     200   100
You are advised to add the charges to the Amount when carrying out a transaction.
Your commission will be credited to your wallet from the charges.
So lets say a customer wants too withdraw #500, the charge is #100. You are to enter #600 on the App, you will be credited #500, while #55 will go to your commission balance.
What if I Don’t Meet the 2 Million Minimum Volume?
Any agent who fails to meet the N2,000,000 (two million Naira) a month volume will not be refunded the N10,000(ten thousand Naira) fee paid. Â

The calculation is 10,000/100×0.8 =80).

Hello
Please I Just made a payment to fund my ready cash wallet.. My acct was debited but my ready cash wallet was not funded.
Please how do I correct it?
Just allow it sometime, if it doesn’t reflect, then you can report to your bank or contact the payment processor. But I’m sure is a network problem.
I couldn’t remember my transaction pin
Use the pin reset option or write to support to get a new pin. You can also use the Readycash telegram bot to help you reset your pin.

Hello Olakunle,
If your pinpad is not connecting, you can try restarting it and also make sure your phone has good network. You can also try to update the app. As for how to get the regular POS, you can message me on WhatsApp to get the agent application form. Meanwhile, I will be making a video on the entire process soon so do well to subscribe to my channel on YouTube to get the update. Thanks
Please, what is the advantage of the pinpad over the POS machine, or the POS machine over the pinpad….?
The advantage of pinpad over POS is, the cost of transaction on readycash pinpad is cheaper than on its POS. While that of the POS over Pinpad is the ability to print receipt.
