Is Recharge card business still profitable in 2023?
Recharge card business was one of the most profitable businesses in early 2000 majorly because there was nothing like mobile banking and online recharge and also commission on every recharge pin sold is much. It was one of the best businesses to venture into as it also requires large capital to partner with a telecom company before you can be able to print to buy it directly from them at the wholesale price.
But in recent years the profit made in the recharge card business has declined reason been that most people now use their mobile banking apps to recharge and also the commission has reduced to 0.5% -1.5% example is when you buy a recharge card for 95 Naira you resell it for 100 Naira given you a total profit of 5 Naira. So before you can make a profit you need to supply a large number of people.
