How to Register on Amazon from Nigeria Without a Local Credit Card

Shopping on Amazon has become second nature for millions worldwide — from ordering the latest gadgets to finding rare books or everyday essentials. But for many people in Nigeria, the dream of easy Amazon shopping often comes crashing down at the payment screen. You’ve created your account, added your dream items to the cart, but when you try to pay, your Nigerian bank card gets declined or isn’t accepted at all.

This is a frustrating, but very common scenario. Amazon’s payment system has certain restrictions, and many Nigerian-issued cards either don’t support international online transactions or get flagged by Amazon’s fraud prevention filters. However, this doesn’t mean Nigerians can’t shop on Amazon. With a few smart workarounds, you can register, verify your account, and start ordering — all without a local credit card.

Step 1: Creating and Verifying Your Amazon Account

Before you can even think about payments, you need a working Amazon account.

  1. Visit Amazon.com.
  2. Click “Create account” and fill in your name, email, and password.
  3. Amazon will ask for phone number verification. Here’s where many people get stuck — especially if your SIM doesn’t receive international OTPs or if you prefer not to use your personal number.
    • The easiest fix is to use a Grizzly SMS virtual number for Amazon. You can instantly rent a number from a supported country, receive the SMS code in seconds, and complete the registration without revealing your real number.Virtual number for Amazon
  4. Once verified, your account is ready — but you still need a payment method that Amazon will accept.

Step 2: Payment Methods That Actually Work in Nigeria

Most Nigerian debit and credit cards won’t pass through Amazon’s system. Luckily, there are alternatives:

1. Virtual USD Cards

Platforms like Payoneer, Chipper Cash, Eversend, or ALAT by Wema Bank offer virtual USD cards that are compatible with Amazon.

  • These cards work like any other Visa/Mastercard but are issued in USD, bypassing local currency restrictions.
  • You can fund them directly from your Nigerian account in Naira, with automatic conversion to USD.

2. Amazon Gift Cards

A very popular method for Nigerian shoppers.

  • Buy Amazon gift cards (in USD) from trusted online resellers or local vendors.
  • Redeem them by going to “Gift Card Balance” in your Amazon account and entering the code.
  • You can pay for your orders entirely from your gift card balance without linking a bank card.

3. International Cards via Friends or Family

If you have relatives or friends living abroad, ask them to:

  • Add their card to your account as a payment method.
  • Or place the order on their account and ship it to you.

Step 3: Managing Shipping from Amazon to Nigeria

Not all items on Amazon can be shipped directly to Nigeria, but there are two main solutions:

Amazon Global Shipping

  • Some products are eligible for direct delivery to Nigeria. You’ll see the note “Ships to Nigeria” on the product page.
  • Amazon will calculate shipping and import fees upfront, so you know the total cost before paying.

Package Forwarding Services

For items that don’t ship to Nigeria, you can use forwarding services like MyUS, Shipito, or Stackry.

  • These services give you a U.S. address where Amazon delivers your package.
  • They then forward it to your Nigerian address, handling customs clearance if needed.

Step 4: Placing Your First Order

Once your account, payment method, and shipping are sorted:

  1. Add items to your cart.
  2. Select your payment option (virtual USD card, gift card, or international card).
  3. Choose your shipping method.
  4. Review the total — including import fees and delivery charges.
  5. Place your order and wait for the tracking updates.

Pro Tips for Nigerian Amazon Shoppers

  • Check seller ratings — high-rated sellers are more reliable, especially for electronics.
  • Combine items — forwarding services often charge per package, so combine multiple orders to save on shipping.
  • Use a virtual number for multiple accounts — with Grizzly SMS, you can register more than one Amazon account for personal use, business, or family without reusing the same phone number.
  • For digital goods (eBooks, software, subscriptions), gift cards or virtual USD cards work perfectly — and delivery is instant.

With these steps, shopping on Amazon from Nigeria becomes much easier. Whether you’re buying tech gadgets, fashion, books, or home essentials, the right combination of a virtual number, alternative payment methods, and smart shipping choices removes all the typical barriers. The world’s largest online marketplace is open — you just need the right approach to walk through the door.

FAQ
Can I use my Nigerian debit card on Amazon?
It’s possible, but many local cards are rejected. Virtual USD cards and gift cards are more reliable.
Do I really need a phone number to register?
Yes, Amazon uses it for verification and delivery updates. A virtual number is a safe and quick option.
Can I shop only with gift cards?
Yes, if your balance covers the entire purchase amount, you don’t need to link a card at all.
