Ever tried paying for something online and got hit with a frustrating message:
“Your card is not accepted”?
That’s the daily struggle for many Nigerians trying to make payments in USD on platforms like Netflix, Amazon, Facebook Ads, Spotify, Google Play, and more—especially with the ongoing restrictions on Naira cards.
Enter Bompay USD Virtual Cards—your ultimate solution for seamless global payments.
What is a USD Virtual Card?

Bompay’s USD virtual cards are funded in dollars, making them perfect for international payments that reject Naira-based cards.
