What to check before you use CardSale

None of this makes CardSale a bad choice. It means the answer depends on what you are cashing out and how you want to be paid.

How Yesa is different

The rate is on your screen first

You see the naira figure before you send crypto or upload a card, and the sale settles at that figure.

Zero sell fees

On crypto and on gift cards, the amount on your screen is the amount that lands in your naira balance.

Both directions

Sell crypto for naira, or buy ten coins with naira from your balance or by bank transfer, in one app.

One balance for everything

Gift cards, airtime, data, TV and electricity from the same naira balance, and withdrawals to any Nigerian bank, with a measured median payout of 4.7 seconds across 1,700 payouts.

Which one suits you

CardSale suits you if you only trade gift cards and are happy to do everything inside the app.

Yesa suits you if you want gift cards and crypto in one app, zero sell fees, and rates you can check on the web.
