Running a digital business in Nigeria can become complicated when you need different platforms for virtual numbers, eSIMs, gift cards, airtime, bills, and other digital services. Managing multiple suppliers also means dealing with different dashboards, pricing systems, and integrations.
That is where the Nexar Reseller Program comes in.
If you already run a website, app, digital storefront, agency, community, or online business, you can become a Nexar reseller and offer Nexar products directly to your customers through your own platform.
Here is how the process works.
What Does It Mean to Become a Nexar Reseller?
When you become a Nexar reseller, you can sell approved Nexar digital products to your own customers using Nexar’s reseller system and API.
Available products include:
- Virtual numbers
- eSIMs
- Gift cards
- Social boosting services
- Airtime and data
- Bill payments
Nexar provides reseller discounts starting at 15%, with higher discounts available as successful orders increase.
This can be useful if you want to add digital products to an existing business instead of building every service from scratch.
Who Can Become a Nexar Reseller?
The program can work for different types of businesses.
You might want to become a Nexar reseller if you run:
- A digital products store
- A fintech or marketplace
- A travel platform selling eSIMs
- A social media service agency
- An online community
- A website or mobile app
- A business that wants to add digital services to its existing offerings
For example, a Nigerian travel business could add eSIMs to its platform, while a digital store could offer gift cards, virtual numbers, airtime, and other approved products.
Nexar allows you to choose the services that fit your business rather than requiring you to sell everything.
How to Become a Nexar Reseller
The Nexar reseller application process is straightforward. You first create or use your Nexar account, submit your business details, wait for approval, and then set up your API access.
1. Create Your Nexar Account
Before you become a Nexar reseller, you need a Nexar account.
If you do not already have one, create an account and complete the required account information.
You can start by creating a Nexar account here:
If you already use Nexar for virtual numbers, gift cards, eSIMs, or other services, you can use your existing account.
2. Submit Your Nexar Reseller Application
After creating your account, open your profile and look for the reseller option.
Your Nexar reseller application asks you to provide information about your business and select the products you want to resell.
Be clear about what your business does and the services you want to offer. For example, if your customers mainly need gift cards and virtual numbers, you can indicate those services rather than selecting products you do not need.
Nexar reviews the request before enabling reseller access.
3. Wait for Approval
After you apply to become a Nexar reseller, Nexar reviews your request.
Approval determines which services your business can access through the reseller system. Your reseller discount also applies to approved services.
According to Nexar, resellers start with a 15% discount, while higher tiers can unlock larger discounts based on successful order volume.
So, if you are building a serious digital-products business, your pricing structure can grow alongside your order volume.
4. Create Your API Key
Once your application is approved, you can create an API key from the reseller portal.
The API connects your website or app to Nexar, allowing your customers to access the approved products through your own platform.
Nexar’s documentation explains that API keys can be limited to specific products, helping you keep access organized between different applications or environments.
Once your application is approved, review the Nexar reseller API documentation to understand API keys, available endpoints, security requirements, and integration.
For security, keep your API key on your server. Do not place it directly inside publicly accessible website or mobile-app code. Nexar specifically recommends server-side storage for production API keys.
You can also read the OWASP API Security Top 10 for broader guidance on protecting APIs.
What Are the Nexar Reseller Discount Tiers?
Nexar offers reseller discounts that can increase as your successful order volume grows. The tiers below are examples listed by Nexar, while your exact discount is confirmed for each approved service when you join.
Nexar currently lists these example tiers:
| Reseller tier | Successful orders | Discount |
| Bronze | Starting tier | 15% |
| Silver | 200 orders | 20% |
| Gold | 500 orders | 25% |
| Platinum | 1,000 orders | 30% |
Please note that these are example tiers and that the exact discount for each approved service is confirmed when you join.
This means you can start with the products your customers already need and expand later.
What Can You Sell as a Nexar Reseller?
Once approved, you can become a Nexar reseller for the services approved for your business.
The current reseller program includes:
Virtual Numbers
Offer customers numbers for supported verification services. If you want to know more on virtual numbers you can read the guide.
eSIMs
Add international mobile data plans to a travel or digital platform.
Gift Cards
Sell supported gift cards from popular brands.
Social Boosting
Offer supported social media growth services.
Airtime and Data

What Happens After Your Nexar Reseller Application Is Approved?
Once Nexar approves your Nexar reseller application, you can access the reseller portal, create your API key, and begin integrating the approved services.
The API documentation provides endpoints for checking products, placing orders, tracking orders, and managing supported services.
You can also keep different API keys for different applications and control which products each key can access.
Ready to Become a Nexar Reseller?
If you already have customers looking for digital products, you do not necessarily need to build every service yourself.
You can apply to become a Nexar reseller, choose the products that fit your business, and connect your platform to Nexar through the reseller API.
Start by creating your Nexar account and submitting your reseller application.
