If you’re a developer, startup founder, or part of a tech team in Nigeria, you know how crucial GitHub is for managing your code, collaborating with teammates, and accessing valuable developer tools. However, since Nigerian banks stopped supporting naira cards for international transactions, paying for your GitHub subscription has become a real challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But don\u2019t worry, there\u2019s a simple workaround, using a virtual dollar card<\/strong>. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you through how to create an EverTry virtual dollar card<\/strong> and use it to pay for your GitHub subscription seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A virtual dollar card<\/strong> is like a regular credit or debit card, but it exists only online. You can use it for international transactions in US dollars, making it perfect for paying for global services like GitHub, Coursera, Udemy, and even Amazon. Unlike traditional cards that may face restrictions when used for international payments, a virtual dollar card lets you make smooth, hassle-free payments for subscriptions and services from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you’re an individual developer, part of a startup, or leading a tech team, a paid GitHub subscription<\/strong> opens up a world of possibilities. Here are just a few reasons why you might want to upgrade from the free plan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, let\u2019s get to the good part \u2013 setting up your EverTry virtual dollar card. Here\u2019s how you can create one and get started with paying for your GitHub subscription:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Head over to the EverTry website<\/a> or download the app<\/a> and create an account. All you need is your basic info to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you’re signed up, you’ll need to complete the Know Your Customer (KYC)<\/strong> process. This is a quick verification step where you\u2019ll provide some documents (like your ID) to confirm your identity. It\u2019s a standard process for security and ensures that your transactions are safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, fund your EverTry wallet. You can use Naira<\/strong> to load your wallet through various methods like bank transfer<\/strong>, card payments<\/strong>, or mobile money<\/strong>. Once your wallet is funded, you\u2019re ready to create your virtual card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After funding your wallet, you can easily create a virtual dollar card. EverTry will generate the card details for you, including the card number<\/strong>, expiration date<\/strong>, and CVV<\/strong>, just like a regular card. And that\u2019s it! You\u2019re all set to use it for international payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now that you have your EverTry card, let\u2019s add it to GitHub so you can pay for your subscription:<\/p>\n\n\n\n GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered code completion tool that\u2019s become a game-changer for developers.
