Ano even understand.. Those English used were too emefelized to my understanding

But what we all knew this is pay back time but it has good and bad effect during this period

Honestly, too ambiguous and uncalled for...most especially in this kind of economy where as a teacher, u also need to be a tailor and must be selling chinchin in front of your house to meet up with daily survival and life expectancy....multiple strings.

I think what the law means there is, if as a merchant, you apply and collect pos terminal from your bank for the purpose of trading, receiving payment of sales from your customers, you shouldn't use same terminal for withdrawal and deposit business just like an accredited agent would do....

I think that's a better explanation.

They are not banning POS, there is POS for agency banking and there is another for checkout

The POS for agency banking have the options to withdraw but checkout has option of purchase

What they're saying is that particular POS terminals meant for selling of goods like the ones in supermarkets will no longer be used to withdraw or send money. They will be used only for payment of goods.

read, my fellow youths, read to understand!

Before the use of POS terminals as agency banking, P O S which actually means Point of Sales terminal were solely used by merchants for the sole purpose of collecting payments... now enter Agency banking, where you now use the terminals to "cash-in" (deposit) and "cash-out" (withdraw).


now, due to the current situation, terminals supposedly marked out as "merchant terminal" are used as "agency banking" and that is what CBN is trying to stop.

but then, again, this is like the proverbial hunt for rats when the house is on fire.

Emefiele, wake up o!

No suffering there, it is just regulatory compliance, a merchant POS is different from an agent POS, they should not perform same function.

It seem most people that commented here are into POS. It is called point of sale designed mainly for payment at any business outlet not for money desposit or withdrawal. That's how it is being use for in the developed world. Most POS operators here in Nigeria doesn't have a business outlet for sales of any commodities or service but operate as arbitrage and mini banking .
