How do I Deposit Money?

Yellow Card provides two main ways to deposit funds into your account. The first is through Fiat Money, and the second is through Cryptocurrencies. But hold on! What is Fiat money? It is a government-issued currency not backed by a physical commodity, such as gold or silver, but rather by the government that issued it. 

In this post, we will explain how to fund your Yellow Card Account in both ways, regardless of country.

How to Deposit Fiat Money on Yellow Card?

You can deposit funds on your Yellow Card account with the 13 Fiat currencies supported by Yellow Card and through multiple payment methods (bank transfer and Mobile Money).

The 13 Fiat currencies are the Nigerian Naira, Kenyan Shilling, Central African CFA Franc, West African CFA Franc, Tanzanian Shilling, Congolese Franc, South African Rand, Botswana Pula, Ugandan Shilling, Malawian Kwacha, Zambian Kwacha, Ghana Cedi, and the Rwandan Franc.

After you have verified your identity ( complete your KYC), you can proceed to deposit Fiat money in your Yellow Card wallet. Then follow these steps from your app (we will use Ghana for this example. Please note that the process is the same regardless of your country of residence. Kindly follow this link to get an overview of your country's deposit method):

Step 1
