“UBA Cards on Paypal offer unrivalled convenience for our Cardholders to shop online” Adedeji added.
Assuring cardholders of their transaction security, he further said UBA cards are trusted, reliable and protected with advanced technology for online payments.

In addition, he said UBA MasterCard and VISA cards are fortified with MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by VISA features respectively for secure online transactions.

“The acceptance of UBA Cards on PayPal will provide more convenience for those planning their summer shopping. This development is coming on the heels of the launch of the bank’s summer campaign which encourages cardholders to travel with their UBA Cards wherever they go in the world.

“UBA cards are accepted in over 200 countries and on millions of POS terminals and ATMs around the world. This implies that UBA Cardholders are never stranded in any part of the world where they decide to shop or do business,” it added.
