easily withdraw your funds

There is no point making money online, if you cannot easily withdraw it to take care of your personal needs. AlertPay provide a number of ways for you to withdraw funds from your e-wallet. You can request for a cheque from AlertPay, which you can cash at your local bank in your country. If that will take too long, AlertPay also accepts withdrawals of your funds through a bank transfer or a bank wire, which will take two to five business days. In addition, if you add a debit/credit card (Visa/MasterCard) to your account, you can even withdraw funds from your AlertPay e-wallet to your credit/debit card. Direct bank deposit is available in 46 countries. However, AlertPay does not support direct bank deposit for Nigeria.

An option that may make sense when you are withdrawing a little amount of fund, is to use the services of independent e-currency exchangers to withdraw funds from your AlertPay account. AlertPay currently has six recognised exchangers and advises you to use only their services. Unfortunately none of them is based in Nigeria so you may not be able to receive direct deposit into your bank account from them in Nigeria. Some of them do not even offer any form of bank deposit but only exchange your AlertPay fund with another e-currency like Liberty Reserve. The route that account holders in Nigeria normally use to withdraw funds from AlertPay is to use the services of the recognised AlertPay exchanger to convert their AlertPay funds to Liberty Reserve and then using the service of a recognised Liberty Reserve exchanger to exchange Liberty Reserve to Naira deposit at their local bank in Nigeria.

As a merchant it is recommended you open an AlertPay Personal Pro or AlertPay Business Pro accounts. These two AlertPay accounts are free and make it easier to sell online. If you want to use a business name, the AlertPay Business account is recommended.
