Why You Don’t Need Recharge Cards

With the level of technological advancement hitting the Nigerian banking sector, don’t be surprised that in the future (not so far from now), recharge cards will be a thing of the past.

We have had several technological developments in banks, the latest being the mobile recharge system. No matter where you are, all you need is just an account with the bank and a registered phone number with which you receive alerts. As a matter of fact, if you are receiving alerts already on your phone, you are already seconds away from delving into this life-easing and enjoyable auto-recharge system.

Since I came in contact with this information, I can’t remember the last time I bought a physical recharge card as this has relegated the idea.  You can decide to top up your account directly or get the recharge pin sent to your phone or the phone number you want to bless.

This also relegates to oblivion the idea of borrowing airtime credit from service providers only for them to sweep your airtime the moment you load them; how annoying this can be especially when you have forgotten you are owing them.
