1. A computer ( laptop or desktop)
2. Access to internet
3. The recharge card printing software
4. Printer

Steps on how to start running the business
- Get a connected computer
- Register with one of the dealers
- You will be given a software, download it on your computer
- Order for the recharge pins through their website and pay the amount required into their bank account
- After payment, send your payment details to them to notify them of your payment. For example the teller number, your phone number, email address, the network you are purchasing, and any other information required on their website.

You don’t need to be a computer literate before you start your own recharge card business, you can start with as little as #90,000. You can be using a trusted cyber café or business center pending the time you will be able to purchase your own personal computer. Recharge card printing business can be making you more than #200,000 monthly. It all depends on how hard working you are.
You may be wondering how you will make sales with this business, you can be selling you printed cards to
1. Recharge card vendors
2. GSM phoning booth
3. Individuals.
If you are busy person, you can get a sales rep that will be going around with the recharge card selling it.
You are now having the information that will be assisting you in making at least #200,000 monthly. Most people are having the right information to making money, but the problem they have is that they will never take action. I know after reading this guide some people will take action and some won’t. The choice is yours.
If you are having any question, use the comment box and if you have more trusted dealers you want us to add to the dealers list, send an email to admin@justnaira.com. Hope this info helps a little.

#200,000 can only b gottn monthly “as u said” if only i’m selling 40,000 pins directly to final consumers at#100.
there is notin in the card printing biz, and 1 can’t survive wit it. i tink it is the most poorest profit making busness dat i hav known. a busness dat 1 can’t make upto six percentage (6%) of investment.
Thank u for the information that u gave us, my quest is that some of the article writer use to tell us that we can start with minimum of 10000-15k is that treu. Thank u
@ David, you can start N10-15k as a retailer not as a Dealer or sub-dealer.
Plz i want 2 knw weda i can start the business with N10,000 bcos i av a computer, printer and d internet connection
@David, That’s too small to start recharge card printing business.
Is prepaid stil function
@femi, I don’t think so.
please am really interested of joining recharge card printing business of my own, besides, knowing how much it could cost and its requirements. i have laptop of my own that can aid me to start up the business.
@joseph benjamin effiong, with N100,000, you are good to go.
is there other dealers that sells cheaper pin as less as #87 per #100 pin becos i’ll sell to the wholesalers in my area not retailers and i have 300,000 as my start-up capital
I don’t think telecommunication companies sell as cheap as that.
How can I get a brand new laptop for a lesser price of 14k to 15k and am really interested in the recharge card printing business and is 30k enough for a start?
thanks
