After started my noddles DEPOT on January 2021, I started by accepting cash payment, mobile banking transfer and a POS marching so that customers could make payments just with their debit/credit card without having to carry cash about.
my customers seem not to be satisfied with these Three payment method, they always have few complain like; 1: oh! I forgot my debit card at home
2: oops!! I don't have enough cash to make full payment
3: ah!! my bank network is not connecting, I can't make transfer.
the problems I have had with this payment method are:1: receiving late payment as a result of banking network.
2: when customers pay with their Debit card using my POS marching, they get debited and I end up not receiving credit alart unless I go and lounge a complain in the bank for reversal.
3: some times I mistakenly take counterfeit cash
4: I got harassed by some street thief's
following the ideaology of a Nigerian brother in this forum, I have made up my mind to be more practical as a Bitcoin believer. I decided to accept crypto as another means of payment in my noddles DEPOT.
According to WINA (World Instant Noodles Association), Nigeria is ranked 12th largest consumer of instant noodles in the world with estimated annual demand of 1.79billion packets of noodles. Reports also put the number of Nigerians that consume noodles at 14million which is nearly 10% of population of Nigeria.
I placed a Notice outside my shop front stating "We are now accepting Bitcoin for payment".
first week of placing this notice was like no result achieved, most customers keep asking how I think this kind of idea would work and I said to them, nothing is impossible. lot of customers were also curious 🤨🧐 to pay in Bitcoin/crypto currency instead of carrying cash about.
3 weeks later, I received the first payment from 5 customers in Bitcoin, BUSD, USDT and BNB, transaction was fast and secure and my customers were happy 😁 as I was too.
Those who wants to buy noodles and pay in Bitcoin, BUSD, USDT or BNB are welcome, transaction is so fast and secure with only little transaction fee.
I am open 24/7 to receive your order, you can send DM and your order will be delivered.
I hope this is a good step I took?

I'm sure if you keep telling everyone about the idea of paying using Bitcoin on your DEPOT noddle, people will definitely keep visiting your DEPOT noddle.
