POS (Point of Sale): E-payment/Good business for the unemployed


The issue of unemployment has taken a high tone today especially in Nigeria where the government of the day is just focused on favoring themselves, while jailing and troubling those who did not favor them in the past. The fresh graduates will almost pray that the Youth Service program should never come to an end.  But someday it has to end. In the past, the government encouraged education to say it was a final bus stop for anyone who would make it. The story is different today as most people who have respected the call to go to school still come out of school to struggle spaces with those who could not afford going to school; some have become subjects to those who have never seen the four corners of a school; ERROR! Don’t get me wrong, education is sweet; without it, I won’t have the know-how of writing. Let’s tell ourselves the truth.

However, there are several kinds of job the unemployed can lay hands and with patience and integrity, he will make.

The POS (point of sale) as the name implies has gone beyond using it to transact buying and selling business. It is used to pay utility bills, make money transfer, and lots more.

If you did not know, know it now.  Most of these e-payment operations have been extended beyond the banks to create employments. Using the POS outside the banking hall makes you by-pass the crowd inside the bank or at the ATM stand. Lucky enough if the proprietor of the POS stand is just on your street, then you have by-passed transporting yourself to the bank while wasting a lot of time. Just instead use that money for your fare to pay for the POS service. Shikenah! But your ATM card must be a MasterCard. (That was when the biz just began, now you can use whether MasterCard or VisaCard 😁)

On the part of the unemployed, don’t just look, wake up, find how you can get a POS machine, and then locate a strategic area where you know you can make sales (e.g. where there are no banks, no NEPA offices or any other utility office) to erect your kiosk. Some single transactions cost over N200 but the least transaction is N20. If you make fifty of such in a day, you don't need to worry yourself anymore 😆

Academic qualification? You don’t need, just know how to operate the POS machine, that is all about it.😜
