Nga PayPal, MoneyBookers, Google Checkout n’ebirala, eBillme nkola eyetagisa okusobozesebwa emikutu gya yintanenti.

1.Genda ku mukutu gwogulako ebintu ku yintanenti osalewo byoyagala okugula nga bulijjo.

5.Nga omaze okusasula, eBillme nga esasula ekintu ky’oguze, olwo kiryoke kikuweerezebwe ku lyaato.
Nga bwe kiri, enkola eno esobola okukolera ffe Abafirika abatalina kaada ya ‘credit card’ kubanga kikusobozesa okusasula nga okozesa MoneyGram (eringa Western Union), nga esangibwa mu nsi yonna. Era osigala nga olina okusasula ensimbi zonna ezetaagisa okutambuza ensimbi, naye kintu ekisobozesa okusasula ku yintanenti.
Omutimbagano gwaabwe teguwa bubaka bwonna ku kubaawo kwenkola yaabwe wabweeru wa Amerika, naye enkola eyafananyiriza eyo esobola okugonjoola ebizibu mu Afirika ebyesigamye ku butaba na credit card n’okusuubula ku yintanenti mu Afirika. Enkola eno yeraga nga engeri abasuubuzi ku yintanenti gye bayinza okutuuka eri abo abatakozesa banka mu Amerika nga bano bali mu bukadde bw’abantu.
Enkola nga zino mu Afirika mwe ziri mu ngeri etali ntongole. Abantu abava ebweru okukola mu Afirika wamu ne Abafirika bameka abalina akawunta mu banka ebweru abesanga nga bakozesa credit card wamu ne PayPal okugula ebintu ku yintanenti, nga kw’ogasse n’okusasulira enkola ya yintanenti? Ekibulawo kwekutongoza enkola zino, enkola ennung’amu esobozesa abasuubuzi ne zi banka okubeera n’omuntu omulala wakati.
