I enjoyed using the platform, especially considering the fact that it has an intuitive user interface. However, I didn’t like the fact that I’ll have to get two OTPs before I can finally access my account. It was somewhat stressful for me. Another thing I didn’t like about using Wirepay was the fact that its customer service wasn’t available 24/7. I sent a query and I was told I’ll get a reply the next day which I didn’t like. However, they sent a reply to my Email 29 minutes later. The email will be sent to you from Malperad— one of the companies they are working with.

One of the users said, “These people are thieves, I deposited 1 million nairas in my Ngn account and I was charged 2k for depositing, and I converted it to Ghs. The next thing I was trying to withdraw, it wasn’t available. I waited for about 72 hours for the withdrawal service to be restored. When it was restored the withdrawal fee was increased from 1% to 10%. I can’t take such a thing. losing 70k just like that because I want to use you guys’ platform is not possible to you guys should revert this terrible act.” Below is a screenshot of some comments on the Google Play store.
