Meanwhile, use the phone number of other carriers to verify your account.

Transactions with credit/debit card
Unfortunately, no Nigerian-issued bank cards currently work on our service due to the ban set by the banks. If you happen to attempt to use a local card, please note that you should use your own card to avoid being blocked by our payment processing partner. Accounts with the same card used will be blocked as well. You can also try to use Skrill or Neteller to make transactions.
You can also try to use our Bank Transfer Nigeria payment method by selecting it on your exchange page or our homepage.:
Card debited, but the transaction is not successful
Sometimes, when using Zenith, Access, FCMB cards, your payment might fail on our end, but your bank still pre-authorizes your payment. If that happens, they might ask you to provide a decline receipt for your failed payment in order to release your funds back to your card's balance. You may provide the automated system email "Order Invoice ID - there has been a problem" or "Payment failed" that can be found in your registered email's inbox to your bank. Once you provide that to them, they will cancel your pre-authorization hold.
3rd party cards
You shall not use 3rd party cards as you will not be able to verify them.
If we notice you using the same card on different accounts, that card will be blocked on our platform.
Do not try to verify the card if it does not belong to you - your account might be suspended.
All transactions with unverified cards will be canceled, thus, you risk having no access to the funds till the bank returns them. As we heard, it might take from 2-6 weeks for international purchases.
Beware of clipboard viruses
Some customers complained of their wallet addresses changing after they are copied. Run an antivirus program to be sure your device is secure.
Be careful and always double-check the wallet address before you proceed with the transaction.
Error codes, camera not working
If you receive an error code during verification of your account or card, please refresh the page, log out from your account and log back and try again.
If you are trying to pass the liveness verification on the Paybis Google Play app and your camera is not working, please try to use Google Chrome instead by going to the paybis.com website.
When paying with Skrill/Neteller, please note the following:
-
It is only allowed to use a personal Skrill/Neteller account. If the account name and surname, and DOB do not match the Paybis account, the transaction will be rejected and the payment refunded.
-
In the case of refunds, the incoming and outgoing transaction fees will not be refunded.
Extra charges by Mastercard for International payments
If you see extra charges on your statement, please note that it could be applied by Mastercard for making International Purchases.
It usually says MC POS Intl on the alert/statement.
