Additionally, this manual includes:
Let’s get started
POS business
Almost all banks and fintech firms currently provide POS to individuals as a way to make money, making it one of the most lucrative businesses in Nigeria. Many Nigerians have chosen to engage in this industry because:
- With a very small amount of money, it can be begun and maintained.
- Since a large shop is not necessary for a start-up, the POS company is simple to launch.
- Nigerian institutions’ ATMs have not yet been able to keep up with demand from customers who require constant access to their money.
- Without much stress, it can be done in conjunction with other companies.

Palmpay pos types
Palmpay POS machines are of two types. They are
Traditional pos. This is kind of old fashioned but still, you will get your work done. After all, the charges are the same as android pos type.
Full android pos. This comes with fully android features and a great user interface.
These two POS types come with different prices but their transactions charges are the same. Both traditional POS and android pos have printers to print out transaction receipts for your customers.
PalmPay POS Price (cautionary fee)
The price for both PalmPay POS types are as follows:
Traditional PalmPay POS caution fee: 20,000 naira
Android POS cautionary fee 30,000 naira.
Note: This amount is not the price for buying the PalmPay POS machine. It’s just a cautionary (rentage) fee.

If you no longer have interest in the POS business or you got another POS machine elsewhere, you can return it and your money will be refunded back to you, as long as no damage is done to the machine.
POS Outright purchase
To buy and own the POS machine, here’s the price:
Traditional POS: 40,000
Android POS: 60,000 naira
My take: PalmPay can withdraw their POS machine from you if you don’t meet up to their daily target.
So, I think it’s best to buy the POS machine outright and not pay 20,000 or 30,000 in the name of cautionary fee when you can just pay 40,000 or 60,000naira and own your machine forever.
PalmPay POS charges and commissions
There are charges on both withdrawal and deposits on PalmPay POS. I explained them below
Withdrawal charges
Like I said earlier, for both android and traditional PalmPay pos machines, the charge is 0.5% on withdrawal. What this means is that you will be charged 5 naira for withdrawal of every 1,000 naira.
For 1000 naira, you will be charged 5 naira
For 5000 naira you send to customers, you will be charged 25 naira
If you send 10000 naira to a customer, you will be charged 50 naira
For 15000 naira, the charge is 75 naira
2000 naira and above withdrawal carries 100 naira charges
Deposits charges and commissions
For deposits, 10 naira will be charged regardless of the amount.
This means that when customers ask you to help them send money to someone, PalmPay will charge you 10 naira for the transfer even if the money you’re transferring is 100,000 naira.
Transfer limit
Palmpay accounts have three levels. They are called Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3. You can upgrade from the former to the latter.
For Tier 1, the daily transaction limit is 50,000 naira and can only hold a balance of 300,000 naira
Tier 2 on the other hand is with 200,000 naira as a daily transaction limit and can hold up to 500,000 naira
Tier 3 has 1m as a daily transaction limit and can hold up to 5m in account balance.
