N-Power Registration 2017: How To Apply and Upload Your Data

N-Power is a Federal Government of Nigeria programme under the social investment programme for job creation and empowerment initiatives. It is a programme of the FGN to help reduce unemployment by helping them to create jobs and engaging them in activities while unemployed and paying them about N30,000 stipend on monthly basis.

However, the FG decided to introduce a second batch of N-Power registration this year 2017 with some slight adjustments from the first batch. Therefore we are here to guide you on how to complete your N-Power 2017 registration, upload your data including the mandatory BVN and other information you need. Here are some changes to the previous process.

1. BVN will be auto searched by site before proceeding to the next phase. If BVN exists then one is cleared to proceed. this development is not unconnected with series of problems faced with unmatched, incorrect BVN in the first batch registration.

2. The second phase registration is more of an interactive interphase. Applicants don't just upload data and go, the test which erstwhile was written separately at a slated date will be written immediately by applicants to complete their registration.

NOTE: Based on the few points above, i'd like to reiterate that prospective applicants should be fully involved and be physically present in the process of registration to proofread their info and write their test.

The issuance of forms in this phase will not be possible for obvious reasons, so i urge all to take this phase serious and get

    1. Hi Mustapha, to link your Barter card to PayPal
      Visit the site here: https://getbarter.co/
      A few things to remember:
      Your Barter card is a USD card
      Your Barter card is a MasterCard so always look out for the MasterCard logo on merchant sites
      You can only link your Barter card to the US PayPal site
      You cannot use your Barter card to send and receive money from another PayPal users.
      You cannot add funds to the Barter card linked to your PayPal account.
      You must use the Billing Address associated with your Barter card.
      You must have a US number and US address if you’re signing up as a new user on the US PayPal site.
      Let’s get started:
      If you are already registered on the US PayPal and you want to link your Barter card, log into your account
      Click on ‘Wallet’ at the top of the page

      Click on ‘Wallet’
      On the left-hand side of the dashboard, select ‘Link a card or bank’

      Link a new card
      Click on ‘Link a debit or credit card’

      Link your Barter card
      Enter your Barter card details and click ‘Link Card’

      Enter card details

    3. USA PayPal is different from Nigeria because Nigerian PayPal accounts are limited to only making payments but can't be used for receiving payments.

      For the best option of shopping online without PayPal or getbarter, I suggest you get a Dollar card from GTBank. You can pay for anything online without minding the current exchange rate as you pay in Dollars
