Advantages of using Palmpay POS service



There are numerous reasons why Palmpay is one of the best POS business providers in Nigeria. When you talk about the advantages they have over other providers, then you talk about the following:

Palmpay POS Commission and Charges



As someone planning to start a POS business with Palmpay, it's important to know that there are charges for both withdrawal and deposit.

Withdrawal Charges


As you already know, Palmpay has two different types of POS machines" an Android version and a traditional POS machine" both of the machines charge 0.05% charges on withdrawals. Mathematically, you will be charged #5 for every #1,000 you withdraw. Below are what you should know as a POS agent.

  • If you send #1,000 to customer you will be charged #5
  • #5,000 will attract #25 naira charge
  • If you send #10,000 to a customer, you will be charged #50
  • When you withdraw #15,000 for a customer, you will be charged #75
  • #20,000 and above will attract #100 charges.

Now, looking at the charges, you will see how profitable the POS business is when you choose Palmpay as your provider. Generally, when you withdraw #5,000 and below in any POS, you will pay #100, and when that happens, they only return #25 and keep #75 as their profit.

Deposit charges and commission



Regarding deposits with the Palmpay POS machine, you will be charged #10 for every deposit made, irrespective of the amount you are depositing. This means that when a customer asks you to help them send money to their account or somewhere else, you will be charged #10 only, even if it's 50k or 100k, and yet, as a POS agent, you will charge the customer between #100 - #1000 for such transactions.
