How to buy anything on Jumia Ghana and pay with MTN Mobile Money

Shopping in Ghana has been made a lot easier with the introduction of Jumia. Today, anyone can buy anything from electronic gadgets to clothing online and get it delivered to them from overseas or here in Ghana at a very affordable price.

However, as simple as this is, many people are unable to buy things on Jumia because they fear they may have to use credit cards (which is a major concern for Ghanaians).

Fortunately, Jumia has made it rather easy for you to buy things and pay with your mobile money wallet.
