Why shoppers in Abuja pay with USDT
USDT (Tether) is a stablecoin designed to track the US dollar. Many shoppers already hold it in an exchange or wallet app, and paying directly in USDT can save them from converting to naira first. That is why GoBuy247 shows catalogue prices in USDT and also accepts naira, with the naira amount quoted by the team for each order.
Whatever you choose, the safest approach is the same: confirm every detail with the seller before you send anything.
Step 1: Choose your product and ask for a quote
Browse the GoBuy247 catalogue and message the team on WhatsApp or call 0902 355 3805 with the exact product name. Ask them to confirm:
- the exact model, storage size and colour you want
- that it is in stock today
- the full price in USDT (or in naira, if you prefer to pay that way)
- any delivery cost and when you can expect the item
Prices of phones and laptops change often, so always use the quote confirmed for your order rather than an old screenshot.
Step 2: Confirm the network, not just the address
USDT exists on several blockchains (networks), such as TRON (TRC-20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20) and Ethereum (ERC-20). An address on one network is not interchangeable with another. Sending USDT on the wrong network is one of the most common ways people lose money.
Before you send, ask GoBuy247 to confirm in the same order conversation:
- which network to use
- the exact wallet address for that network
- the exact amount to send
In your exchange or wallet app, select the same network the seller confirmed. Network fees differ from one network to another, so check the fee shown before you confirm the transfer.
Step 3: Send carefully
- Copy and paste the address. Do not type it by hand.
- Check the first and last five or six characters against the address you were given.
- For a large order, consider sending a small test amount first and asking the team to confirm they received it.
- Make sure the amount received covers the quote after any withdrawal fee your exchange deducts.
Step 4: Keep proof of payment
After sending, copy the transaction ID (also called the TxID or hash) from your wallet or exchange and share it in the order conversation. Keep a screenshot of the completed transfer and the conversation where the price, address and network were confirmed.
Red flags to watch for
- A different wallet address sent from an unfamiliar number or social media account.
- Pressure to pay immediately before the product and price have been confirmed.
- A price far below what other sellers charge for the same model.
If anything looks unusual, stop and call GoBuy247 directly on 0902 355 3805 to check.
Prefer naira?
You can also pay in naira. Ask the team for the naira total, confirm the recipient details and delivery arrangement, and keep your bank receipt. Our naira and crypto order checklist covers both options.
