All You Need to Know About Verve Paycode Cardless ATM Withdrawals and POS Payments
All You Need to Know About Verve Paycode Cardless ATM Withdrawals and POS Payments
Life is more simple and easy day by day as a result of technology and we need to stay up-to-date with new emerging technologies. Im happy to inform you that there is a new way in Nigeria to withdraw your money from the ATM machine without your debit card being physically present. It sounded like a big joke at first until I personally confirmed it.
You know how it feels when you urgently need cash, but your ATM card is at home; theres money in your account, but you cant withdraw it because you need an ATM card.
Nigerias largest payment processing company - Interswitch, has launched "Verve World", an app which enables cardholders to store all their payment options and to carry out everyday transactions without physically using their cards. You can now withdraw the cash in your account without using an ATM card, all you need is a Verve Paycode.
Verve Paycode is a secure code that can be generated from cards stored in your eWallet (Verve eCash). Verve eWallet can securely store any card from any Bank.
Verve eCash is a virtual payment card that allows you to transact in every way you would with a physical card. With eCash, you no longer need card number, OTP, CVV2 or expiry date to complete your online transactions. Recharge, Pay bills, Transfer funds and even withdraw cash from an ATM or make POS payments directly from your eCash.
Download Verve World app from the link below to get started.


Login/Registration Process
Open the Verve World installed app, login with an existing Interswitch account if you have an account with Interswitch before and if not, choose Sign UP and fill the necessary detail, add the details of your ATM card on to the Verve World App and proceed.

After successful registration, you should get this notification and an accompanying email from the Verve International team with Welcome to Verve eCash in the subject line.
How to Fund Your Verve eCashClick the button that says Fund my eCash. On the next screen, you will be required to enter the amount you want to withdraw.

Even after adding a card to the application, you may have to input your details again in the Payment Card option
How to Generate Actual Verve PaycodeAfter funding the eCash, you will get a notification to that effect. Under every page, there is the eWALLET, 1-TOUCH and PAYCODE options, click on PAYCODE to generate.

After selecting PAYCODE, the below page will be displayed.

In selecting a channel, there is the option of ATM, POS or Paypoint Agent. Choose ATM as it is our case study for this post.
In selecting a payment card, choose your already funded Verve eCash or select from the stored Cards.
The cash-out pin is the one you are going to input in the ATM and your card pin is, of course, your personal card pin.
Important NoticeAfter the last procedure described above, you should be able to use your cashout pin in any ATM unless;
- You have insufficient balance in your account.
- You do not have a token physical or software and so cannot use the card online.
- There is not sufficient internet connectivity.
- Verve Paycode works for any bank card as long as its Verve, Visa or Mastercard
- Multiple cards can be added to the application
- Cardless ATM Withdrawals DOES NOT work on every banks ATM (that is the machine).
- The Machine that I know, are: ATMs belonging to Zenith Bank, Stanbic IBTC Bank, Guaranty Trust Bank and Fidelity Bank are compatible with the Verve World App and Verve Paycode.
Now using the ATM is the really tricky part and seems to be where most people are stuck. Most ATMs have the options of cardless operation, to be sure, ask the orderlies around.
Or walk up to any one of them and press the ENTER key multiple times. It should display the option.
How to Withdraw from the ATMGTBank ATM has already been used for the experiment, all you need is to follow the below instruction according.

If you look closely at the display above, it gives the instructions on performing Cardless Transactions; that is, using the ATM to withdraw without ATM card. Even though the instruction makes it easier, some ATMs do not spell it out, so just press the ENTER button on the keypad twice, and if it does not still bring out the option, then the machine is probably not configured for Cardless Transactions.

The next screen after pressing the ENTER key will be self-explanatory as the tag of your selection will include Quickteller. The Verve World App, Verve Paycode and Quickteller are all products of Interswitch, so they are in one family.

After selecting the Quickteller option, this screen comes up and prompts you to enter the already generated code, then the ATM proceeds to produce the exact amount of cash that was entered when generating the Verve Paycode on the Verve World. Simple as that.
At a Stanbic IBTC ATM, press zero 0 on the keypad to be taken to a page that has Quickteller Cashout written on it and the machine will give a prompt for the already generated Verve Paycode.
Zenith Bank ATMs have the same procedure, but you have to press the enter key to access Quickteller Cashout option, and input your Verve Paycode
Note: It includes a N100 surcharge at cashout.
Also Note:
To make every thing simply. You can generate a Paycode by simply dialing *322*8*Amount#. You dont need to have a smartphone or internet access

How is Android 6 0 mashmallow treating you
How is Android 6 0 mashmallow treating you
With every Android device upgrade to 6.0, the internet fills up with hoards of angry people complaining bitterly about the downside of the Marshmallow upgrade ranging from battery drainage, contacts disappearing etc. and some are even willing to downgrade back to Android 5.1 while others choose to remain and wait for a bug fix.
So many users are already rocking Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Is it everything you were expecting it to be? Fingerprint support, granular app permissions, Android Pay, energy optimizations and Google Now on Tap are only a few of the new features in the Marshmallow update.
One of the features I love so much about Android 6 Marshmallow is the doze mode, which puts apps to sleep when it recognizes phone inactivity for extended periods of time, hence saving massive amounts of battery.
Those of you that have upgraded to Android 6. Marshmallow, what are your experiences, good or bad? And those still stuck with Lollipop, or Kitkat why haven’t you upgraded?

All you need to know about Candidiasis of the Skin and Nails
All you need to know about Candidiasis of the Skin and Nails
Candida is a naturally occurring fungus. When overgrown, it can cause an infection on the skin and in the nails. This infection is called candidiasis.
Men, women, and children have Candida, and everyone can get an infection. But what is Candida, what are the symptoms of infection, treatments, and how can infection be prevented? This article aims to explain all.
What is Candida?
There are over 150 types of Candida. The most frequently seen species is Candida albicans. The 15 known Candida albicans species are responsible for infections on the skin and in mucous membranes throughout the body.
Overgrowth occurs more often in moist areas of the skin. Candida infections can range from minor infections that are treated with over-the-counter medications to very serious conditions that need care from a physician.
What causes candidiasis?
Skin infections are caused by warm, wet environments. Humid weather, poor hygiene, and tight clothing that rubs and doesnt breathe well can increase the chances of candidiasis. Antibiotics can also alter the bodys natural Candida, causing an infection to occur.
Candidiasis of the nails can be caused by certain jobs. For instance, those that work with irritating substances, or people who are constantly in water have an increased risk of the condition. Brittle nails can also be caused by genetics and aging. Women experience nail fungus more often than men do.
Symptoms of candidiasis

Candidiasis of the skin can have visual signs such as redness, rash, scaling, and swelling. These signs are often found where skin touches skin as well as areas that are more difficult to keep dry.
Some examples of these sensitive areas include:
- Folds of skin
- Under the breast
- Groin
- Armpits
- Spaces between fingers and toes
- Foreskin of an uncircumcised penis
The infection will most likely itch and feel uncomfortable if not treated.
Signs of candidiasis of the nails are nails that are brittle, easily breakable, or splitting. There are often white or yellow spots under the affected nail. These symptoms can live in fingernails or toenails and can be very painful.
If untreated, the infection can make the nail thicker and even more discolored. Athletes foot, the fungus that can spread between the toes and feet, may also occur at the same time.
Treatment for candidiasis of the skin and nails Over-the-counter antifungal treatments like miconazole, clotrimazole, and oxiconazole can help cure infections of the skin.
To increase the likelihood of a quick recovery, keeping the skin dry is a necessary step. This may be more difficult in certain areas of the body. Powders can decrease moisture during and after recovery.
It is important to see a dermatologist if the condition doesnt improve after taking these actions. Prescription medication may be needed.
Severe skin infections, often caused by invasive candidiasis, need to be treated by a doctor. Invasive candidiasis is a serious yeast infection that affects the blood, heart, eyes, brain, and bones.
People with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV, are more likely to be affected by these invasive infections. Patients should seek medical attention immediately to be hospitalized.

Nails affected by candidiasis should be kept dry and strengthened.
Nail infections can be tricky to resolve. Dr. Phoebe Rich of the American Academy of Dermatology recommends three steps in treating Candida of the nails:
- Examining possible underlying medical causes of the condition and correcting those issues if they exist.
- Keeping nails dry from harsh substances or water. Wearing gloves to do daily duties may help the condition.
- Treating nails by strengthening them. Petroleum jelly or thicker-based lubricants are better than watery lotions.
If a nail infection cannot be treated, surgical nail removal may be the best option. A new nail will grow, but it is a slow process.
Vitamin B with biotin may also help brittle nails, but it is a long-term solution and something that should be kept up as a daily supplement. If the condition doesnt subside, it is best to talk to a skin specialist about a prescription drug to help with the problem.
Preventing candidiasis of the skin and nails
Prevention is extremely important in keeping the nails and skin healthy. One way to reduce a Candida infection is to lower the amount of sugar consumed. Keeping blood sugar at healthy levels can contribute to healthier skin and nails. This is especially important for people with diabetes.
It is extremely important to keep the skin and nails dry and clean. Changing sweaty or wet clothing, washing with soap, and drying well will help avoid the spread and increase of yeast.
As for the hands and feet, choosing a reputable nail salon will decrease the chances of bacteria moving from customer to customer. It is also important to wear flip flops in public places like pools and showers.
Both the skin and nails have Candida, but balance is important. If a fungal infection does occur, home or over-the-counter remedies can be used.
People with weakened immune systems, diabetes, or other health conditions may need medical care more immediately. If a fever and rash are present, thats a sign that a doctor should be contacted right away.

Gorilla Glass 5 exists because you keep shattering your phone screen
Gorilla Glass 5 exists because you keep shattering your phone screen
Phone screens are expensive and a pain to replace but you may not have to worry about busting your screen soon. Corning, the folks behind Gorilla Glass, will soon be releasing the fifth iteration of its phone-focused glass.
Corning claims Gorilla Glass 5 will survive a 1.6 meter (5.25 feet) drop onto a rough surface, like concrete, 80% of the time. However, Cornings tests were conducted in a lab where phones were dropped face down. Itll be interesting to see how well Gorilla Glass 5 holds up to corner drops.
"With many real-world drops occurring from between waist and shoulder height, we knew improving drop performance would be an important and necessary advancement," said Gorilla Glass vice president and general manager John Bayne in a release.
According to a global research conducted by Corning, over 85% of smartphone owners have dropped their phones at least once in the last year. Over 60% of those drops occurred between waist and shoulder height, which is where the 1.6 meter drop height comes from.
Cornings chemically strengthened glass also has to offer exceptional clarity and touch responsiveness, making engineering a tough smartphone glass quite a challenge. 3D glass, like the curved display found on the iPhone 6s and OnePlus 3, will be more prone to cracking as well, as the rounded edges expose more of the screen.
Gorilla Glass 5 is now in production, and we should be seeing them on new devices launching in the fall. Maybe well even see it on the new Google Nexus phones.

12 Useful Things You Can Do With Your Smartphone Camera Aside Snapping Pictures
12 Useful Things You Can Do With Your Smartphone Camera Aside Snapping Pictures
A camera phone is a mobile phone which is able to capture photographs. Most camera phones also record video. The first camera phone was sold in 2000 in Japan, a J-Phone model, although some argue that the SCH-V200 and Kyocera VP-210 Visual Phone, both introduced months earlier in South Korea and Japan respectively, are the first camera phones. Read more on Wikipedia.
Taking or capture photographs is the most used feature of smartphones and lots of people think thats where the use of the camera ends in a mobile phone.
Some people only snap pictures with their camera phone and they think thats where the use of the camera ends in a mobile phone, not knowing that there are lots of amazing things only a camera embedded in a device can do. Heres a list of 12 Useful Things You Can Do With Your Smartphone Camera Apart From Snapping Pictures.
1. Document Scanning
Have you been required to scan and send your document to companies, institutions, and any organization, probably for Job, or scholarship applications etc, through email or to be sent to the cloud. With your phones camera right there with you and with any document scanning app being installed on your smartphone, that means you can achieve that so easily. Instead of going to a cyber cafe or using a traditional scanner hardware, your phones camera can do that for you.

The apps that can see you through, having that your phones camera is intact are as follows: Evernote app and Scanbot app are meant for iOS users, while Google drive is for only Android users, and CamScanner for Android and iOS users.
Note: The scanned document can also be converted into editable text. Just check the detail here.
2. Play Augmented Reality Games
Augmented reality in phones has been around for some time now and tools like AR translation apps are great, but nobody ever seems to show you how to use the technology for fun. That shouldnt stop you using your phones ability to play augmented reality games though - no matter where you are.

There are plenty of them about, like SpecTrek - the game where you search for virtual ghosts using a map and then shoot them down when you find them. Or theres Zombies, Run! where you have to get from A to B on a map, avoiding those pesky flesh eaters en route.
A word of warning: be very careful about running around and shooting at things in a city filled with real people, as you might get some funny looks, especially if youre old enough to know better.
Another augmented reality game is Droid Shooting. Turn any real-life boring background into a real life shooting fest as you deal with waves upon waves of droids that will come and attack you. Droid Shooting utilizes your phones camera and makes it a viewfinder or HUD (Heads-up-display) for the battlefield. You will also find a radar at your disposal, so youll always know where those vicious droids plan to attack.
The game entertaining you as if the whole thing is real. Enjoy the game as your phones camera delivers the service.
3. Barcode Scanner
Your phones camera can be used to scan barcodes in order to get the information written on it, Since anything programmed into it, is always not visible for the naked eyes to see, but can only be known through the use of any barcode scanner app controlled by the camera. If you are using WhatsApp web on your PC, you must have come across the point where you will be asked to scan your barcode, in order for you to access and use your Whatsapp chat on PC.

You can also find a barcorde scanner in UC browsers. So, whenever you have any multiple lines of marks just in the form of several straight lines together, just use your barcode scanner app or UC Browser to scan the lines. Note, once you are scanning the camera will be active at work.
4. Language Translator
With your phones camera, you can be able to translate the language in the form of text and symbol that seems to appear strange to you. And you can achieve that with your phones camera and with the help of Google translator app for is meant for all Android and iOS devices. The translation works this way;

Once you have the Google translator installed on your device, probably Android smartphones or iOS devices. And you come across any language in the form of text or symbol which was written in anywhere, maybe on the wall, sign board, paper or book. Just launch the Google app translator and click the camera icon in the app. Now, your camera should start scanning while you place it where you want it to scan and translate probably the text. Then, the Google app while translating the text uses optical character recognition (OCR) to automatically interpret what you want to translate. Thats it, although it is not perfect but trust me, it will surprise you. This can be very easier than the Google translator that requires you to type in your text before it can interpret it.
5. Look to the Stars
While few of us can ever boast to be blessed with the same sort of abilities as Brian Cox or Sir Patrick Moore, we can still revel in all that the stars have to offer from the comfort of our own homes (or gardens, anyway) thanks to apps like Star Chart and Google SkyMap.

Using AR, they allow you to point your phone skywards at night and get a fascinating overview of all those little lights. SkyMap gives you the names of stars and tells you where to point your phone to see certain planets. Youll feel like a Greek god in no time.
6. Use in Visual Search
With your mobile phone camera, you can be able to search Google with pictures or images, instead of going by typing text. This can be educational and fun catching. There are several search apps that can allow you to snap a picture using your phones camera and after that, they enable the picture to be used in searching on Google search instead of text. For example, you might snap a device probably, a handset or laptop and search it on Google. The result of the search engine would be on the available details/information of the snapped product. Also, you snap a photo of a tourist attraction, and search it, the result will be out displaying the center for the tourist, location, and much more related information.
7. Solving Mathematics Problems
If you are the type of student that find it difficult to understand or solve math problems, you can make use of your phone camera to perform the wonders with the help of an app called "Photomath".

The app is good for students to use when solving any related math problem. You can as well go for it.
8. Serve as Mirror

This is common, use of phone camera especially among the female folks. You see them constantly checking their face and makeups using their phone camera. Isnt it?
9. Serve as a Security Component
Do you have an old camera phone that you are not using anymore? Do you have more than one camera devices? The truth is, you can use your phone camera for surveillance and security purposes just like CCTV
10. Check Electronic Remote Control

11. Educational Purpose
Are you the type that is lazy in writing not in the lecture hall, you can as well use your camera to snap all your friends note. Have you done this before? Many people into this already. Students always go for things that makes life simpler and easier for them.
12. Detecting Hidden Camera

When the first set of Chromebooks for sale were announced by both Acer and Samsung at Google I/O conference in May 2011, everyone was skeptical about the thought of a laptop running a strange OS (Chrome OS) that depends primarily on the internet to function. Over the years and with the introduction of several lines of chromebooks, more people are buying it. In this part of the world especially here in Nigeria, the idea of a PC running anything other than Windows is alien. So, let me introduce you to Google Chromebooks.
WHAT IS A CHROMEBOOK?
A Chromebook is a laptop running Googles Chrome OS. Chrome OS is based on a linux kernel and uses Google Cgrome browser with an integrated media player. The OS has limited offline usability but has a fast boot time, booting up in less than 5 seconds. The OS doesnt install traditional applications like word processing apps or instant messaging, instead users add web apps from the chrome web app store. Just like you do on the Google chrome browser on your PC.
Like most regular PCs, it supports plug and play feature for the USB so you can use your camera, mouse, external drives etc easily with the device. Also, despite the device needing the internet to perform most of the functions, users are able to access any apps which support offline mode. Most Google apps like Drive, Maps, Calendar, Keep and Gmail are usable offline along with built in music player, photo editor and games like Angry Birds.

- Extremely Fast booting
- Built in Popular Google apps like Gmail, Google Drive etc.
- Integrated web store for nstallvng apps
- Easy account management and switching with support for Guest Mode.
- Seamless Syncing with other device for easy use
- Easily access apps on your other PC (not running Chrome OS) via Chrome Remote Desktop
- Built- in protection, therefore no need for need for anti-virus softwares
- Long Battery life
PRICES
Chromebooks despite the eye catching features have relatively low prices compared to other laptops. The price of most chromebooks range from $199 - $349. Thats about N36,000 - N63,000 according to current exchange rates. Some chromebooks like the Samsung Chromebook supports sim for 3G usage.
SUMMARY
In summary, chromebooks are wonderful less expensive alternatives to common laptop. But in countries like Nigeria were internet is not readily available at fast speeds, there could be a problem with the usage. In the nearest future, chromebooks may become the next big thing ahead of PCs and Macs.
Although less popular in the Nigerian market, the pricing and features have attracted some users to acquiring the device. Most top laptop makers like Asus, Samsung, Lenovo, HP, Toshiba all have various designs and models of chromebooks for sale. The big question still remains, are you ready to step up to an internet based device?

Your iPhone isnt waterproof but iOS 10 will tell you when its wet
Your iPhone isnt waterproof but iOS 10 will tell you when its wet
Rumor has it the iPhone 7 may be a fully waterproof phone in the vein of the Sony Xperia Z5 or Samsung Galaxy S7 Active but Apple also has a plan to make some of its older devices more durable too.
Those running iOS 10 beta 2 have found that if water gets into the Lightning port at the bottom of a device, it will serve a warning asking you to remove the cable.
The idea is youll be able to pull out the cable before it does any real damage to the internals of your phone.
Dont get it wet
The feature has been confirmed by users of the iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S Plus and iPhone SE, but it may be set for other devices as well. Apple has yet to officially announce the feature as part of the upcoming iOS 10 update.
TechRadar has asked Apple to confirm if the feature will be rolling out soon and well be sure to keep you updated soon.
If the iPhone 7 doesnt turn out to have a waterproof design, the iOS 10 update may make the phone a little more durable than previous Apple devices.
iOS 10 is set to launch later this year, while the second public beta for iOS 10 is ready to download now.

New WhatsApp Privacy Policy Should You be worried
New WhatsApp Privacy Policy Should You be worried
In 2014, Facebook purchased WhatsApp for about $19billion. Co-founder Jan Koum insisted WhatsApp would remain the same by respecting user privacy and not collecting user data. Things appear to have changed. WhatsApp updated its Privacy Policy for the first time since 2012, and the new policy states that there will be data sharing with Facebook. This data does not include your messages or photos. So why is WhatsApp asking to connect with my Facebook?

Whatsapp plans on helping Facebook improve the Ad experience on facebook and its products to make accurate count of unique users and fight spam and abuse. The updated policy also states: "..we will share some of your account information with Facebook and the Facebook family of companies, like the phone number you verified when you registered with WhatsApp, as well as the last time you used our service...". This means that shared information will include name of device, online status, usage and log information.
Should You be Worried?
Since the roll out of the new terms, a lot of misleading WhatsApp broadcast messages have been going round skewing the truth about the New policy. If your phone number is not used to register on Facebook or associated with any Facebook account, you have nothing to worry about. As an existing WhatsApp user with a Facebook Account, you are free to opt-out of sharing your information to Facebook by going to Settings >> Account >> Share My Account info and untick the box.
What are the benefits?
Facebook plans to bring even more features you WhatsApp. We already enjoy a wide array of features of Facebook already. With WhatsApp linked with Facebook, you can be able to message people directly from the phone numbers on their profile.Also, you get better friend suggestions and more relevant adverts will be served to you. You will also be better protected from spam and abuse
What are the dangers?
With your WhatsApp and Facebook merged you are now connected through a single channel and if your information is ever compromised, there is a lot more at stake. Although, with end-to-end encryption, your messages are safe and nobody can access them. The world is turning into a global village and the introduction of new terms like this are inevitable. Either you accept or not its worth noting some bits of your information are already accessible by default on signing up.Except you have skeletons in your cupboard, you really have nothing to be worried about.
Digital Marketers should be excited about the prospects of these new terms as it means Ads will be more targeted and streamlined for the right audiences. With billions of users across both platforms, the possibilities are endless!

Imagine a world where you can prevent someone from using your name and picture and defrauding people. A world where you can receive information about your upcoming flight directly in your chats or prevent your work like songs, apps and videos from being shared indiscriminately by people. This is the world Facebook wants to give you. The question is: Do You Want?
