Undoubtedly, you will be excited to hear that you can now use Verve Card on Google Play Store for app purchases, subscriptions, and in-app payments. Nigerians have had trouble making payments on Google Play Store for a while now, thanks to the policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) that blocked foreign payments via regular debit cards. This policy threw lots of netizens into disarray, as they could no longer make payments for apps and services in the app store.
But thanks to a new collaboration between Google and Verve, you can now use Verve Card on Google Play Store. You can also use a Verve Card to pay for your Google storage (Drive, Photos, et al), as well as for games, music streaming, and video streaming – all in naira. Let’s show you how it works.
