Yes. At checkout you get a one-time Carder account for the exact naira amount. Send the money from OPay or any other Nigerian bank app, and your code shows on the page.

Question 5

Do I get the gift card by email?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enter your email at checkout and we send your code there as soon as it is ready. It also shows on the order page.

Question 6

Can I buy in the Carder app instead?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Open Gift Cards, pick the card and confirm with your transaction PIN. The app charges your naira wallet, emails you the code and keeps it on your receipt.

Question 7

Why does the country on a gift card matter?

Accepted Answer

A gift card only works in the country it was issued for. A US Amazon card will not redeem on Amazon UK. Pick the country your account is set to, not the country you are in.

Question 8

Can I return a gift card I bought?

Accepted Answer

No. Once a code is issued it cannot be returned or refunded, because whoever holds the code can spend it. Check the brand, the country and the value carefully.

Question 9

Does Carder buy gift cards?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Carder buys gift cards as well as selling them. Open Gift cards in the app and tap the Sell tab. Anyone with a Carder account can sell.

Question 10

How long does it take to sell a gift card?

Accepted Answer

Our buying partner reviews every card. Gaming cards usually take 5 to 10 minutes and shopping cards usually take 1 to 2 hours. You can follow each sale in My card sales, where it shows as Under review, Approved, Paid or Rejected.

Question 11

When do I get my money for a gift card I sold?

Accepted Answer

When the sale shows Paid, the money is in your Carder naira wallet. It is credited once the money has reached Carder, which can be a little after the card is approved. From your wallet you can send it to any Nigerian bank or spend it in the app.

Question 12

Can I resubmit a rejected gift card?

Accepted Answer

Usually, yes. Most rejections leave the card unused, so you can fix the problem, for example with a clearer photo, a scratched panel or the receipt, and submit it again. A used card, a card someone else already submitted, a locked or frozen card and Xbox membership cards cannot be retried.
