ADJUSTMENT IN PAYMENT METHODS FOR TERMINAL AGENTS

 

This is quite an important information for all the terminal agents. These are those who through the stable of VTpass resell services such as airtime, data, electricity bills and tv subscriptions. First off, we would like to sincerely appreciate you for signing off on a partnership with us. You have become a vital part of our organization and you hold the reins of its success just as much as we do. It is with this in mind that we have decided to acquaint you with the little adjustment in payment method.

Rather than pay online through your card, you are now required to credit your wallet through our bank account to avoid the levied processing fee. Hence, in pre-funding your wallet, you are to deposit or transfer fundsinto the bank account given below. Consequently, beginning from this moment, any attempt to fund your wallet via the online platform will attract a 1.5% card processing fee which will be at your own expense.

This slight adjustment is bound to be of mutual benefit as it will halt the recurrent percentile losses we make on all payments done through your card online, just as it will help ensure your commission.

Below are the details of the account with which you are required to now perform all financial transactions:

Account Name: Broadshift Ventures
Account Number: 0137830731
Bank: GTBank

And if you feel you want to opt out of the terminal agent program, do feel free to send us a mail so we can downgrade your wallet to that of a regular customer’s.

VTpass Profiles: The History of Website Development

Once, Bill Gates once said something about how “the internet is becoming the town square for the global village of tomorrow. Of course, the word ‘internet’ here does not refer to some abstract line of operations. It has more to do with the virtual constructions that parade its space. Now, these virtual constructions are what we call website development. These websites created across various planes and places come together to form the powerful force the internet is this day.

So, these websites make things happen literally. Like say, you want to check up on some information, you just have to go to www.google.com or wikipedia.com. Or you want to converse on social media, then you visit facebook.com; twitter.com etc. or you use their app. In fact, you also want to pay your bills without leaving home or work, then you can log on to vtpass.com. On vtpass.com, you get to pay your daily bills, electricity bills, tv subscriptions and data inclusive.

With these long row of opportunities provided by websites, you would want to know the long and enduring history of website developments. That is, how alphabets and codes have come all this way to make our lives better. Well, here is a briefing.

The internet was born in 1969. But at that time, there was no such thing as the internet. You could say not lots of people saw the need for it.

It was only twenty years later, that is in 1989, that the first website came about.

At that time, the websites were just raw HTML data whose servers were simple HTTP daemons. It took quite a lot of work to publish it on the net.

By 1994, the now popular websites got their place online. We had websites like Amazon, Yahoo, Netscape etc. Many common folks, as well as media personalities, still had issues understanding how it worked, especially the use of ‘at’ (@). The programming language used then was FTP. But from 1997-2000, PHP, a programming language purposely meant for developing websites walked in. By this time, about a million organisations and people were enlisted with the “wired world”. The whole idea of dot.coms started getting vibes. And more website builders like Drupal were released.

The wide and wild boon of the Wifi in 2002 further foregrounded the use of the internet.

And as more businesses demanded the use of the internet to manage enterprises, the internet evolved from a monologue to a dialogue. It became a two-way communication stream. Websites now had developers devoted to building them from the scratch. But these developers had the challenge of managing servers.

This challenge solved it slowly, the first step was the release of iPhone 1 in 2007. Now, people started to see the future in cloud computing. With the launch of Github.com in 2009 came a lot of decentralised environments and servers. Also, many website strata started upgrading their system. An example is Pantheon. And with the whole idea of Multi-Cloud Development being put together by them, there are no limitations to creating websites. And now over millions and millions of websites now live on the internet, providing information and solutions for the global space.

One such solution on the internet comes from the stable of VTpass. By logging on to vtpass.com, you get to pay for your Mtn, Airtel, 9mobile, Glo airtime and data with utmost convenience and speed. You can also pay your electricity bills and Dstv, Gotv or Startimes subscriptions. It only takes three taps- Log on, Select, Pay.

2018 WORLD CUP: NEWSREEL

Every four years, several national teams unite together on several green fields across the world for one purpose. And that’s to bring home the glory and prize of the FIFA world cup. And every four years, Nigeria has participated in this memorable event. Most times, they have failed to impress a lot of Nigerians with their performance. But it seems the Nigerian football body is going all out this time to propel the Nigerian team into winning. So, you would want to get in tune with the preparations of the Super Eagles for the 2018 world cup. And you can conveniently do this by visiting vtpass.com for your data and airtime.

But in the meanwhile, the Nigerian Football Federation is showing quite as much support for the Super Eagles. For one, they intend to pay players and officials the sum of $2.4 million for the World cup in Russia. Not only that, the NFF has also agreed to remit the other benefits and due payments to the game players. So, this action is a retrospective of the 2014 world cup when issues regarding the pay row led to a poor performance on the part of the Nigerian team.

It looks like a lot is going on for the Super Eagles. This is not only in terms of the money doled out to them, but there is quite a lot going on for them on the field. On one hand, the team beat Zambia to qualify for the World cup just as they had a tie with Algeria in a recent friendly. And there is the recent victory against Argentina in an International friendly.

In appraising this match, Orji Kalu, the former governor of Abia State, had this to say:

vtpass,2018 world cup“The well-deserved victory of the Super Eagles against the Argentine team is inspiring and worth celebrating. The Super Eagles’ players have demonstrated uncommon soccer sagacity.”

TRADITIONAL WAYS OF COMMUNICATION

Tuesday always has a traditional feel to its turned up rhythm. Blaring music, plugged in conversations and social media gags take a higher volume. And this is all in the hope of getting the right flavour to spice up the week. So, in more ways than one, modern communication has made Tuesdays and every other day so much fun. Anyway, communication gets even better with VTpass. You can easily get enough data or airtime for your numerous social media activities by just logging on to vtpass.com. The way it goes these days, it seems that besides the modern days of communicating, there has never been any other way of communicating.

But we all know that this is not the case, really. There have always been various ways of communicating in what we can call the traditional days. But not only that, these traditional methods synergise with the very modern means of communication.

Here is how:

So, traditional communication has to do with those communication routes that used to be and still exist in rural regions. It usually involves verbal media more than any other medium. Of course, modern communication is more concerned with the use of machines and technology to affect communication.

To share ideas, the people of the past would usually do engage in

conflict resolutions, cultural festivities and didactic artistry like oral literature that incorporates mystical rituals, folktales, drama, dance and the likes.

Through the intertwining of these methods, a message receives amplification in the clearest form possible.

You would agree that this, in a way, bears similarity with the methods through which the modern people communicate. To pass an information, people take to the social media platforms with posts that give information as well as entertain. In fact, everybody goes to these platforms for various reasons. While some just want to have fun, others take to telling people about what to do. But hey, one thing stands certain- creativity and entertainment drive an information to the fore.

just like we have in the modern communication arena, there were also various platforms through which messages were passed traditionally.

The market square: Apart from the original purport of buying and selling, the market square serves well as a communication arena. Women who have picked information from various places spread it around with the word of mouth. Just like the rural arena, VTpass serves as a platform through which you can pay for your everyday services like airtime, data, electricity bills and tv subscriptions. And of course, this helps you connect to the various other communicative platforms.

Town criers: This has always been a veritable way of communicating in the past.

Social Functions: Through social functions, information is easily passed around.

There are also non-verbal ways of passing information traditionally. For example, we have the idiophones which have to do with high sounding instruments that produce their own messages just by beating. The Yoruba talking drum, the Igbo Ikoro, Ogene and Ekwe are examples of these. Symbolic displays and gestures are also traditional non-verbal ways of communication.

It’s good to reminisce about how the past traditional ways of communication. But it is evident that the world has since moved from these methods to a modern means. VTpass offers you quick access to your favourite communication platforms, be it the cable TV or internet. And that too in a convenient way. Just by logging on to vtpass.com, you can pay for your everyday services. You can pay your electricity bills, DSTV, STARTIMES, GOTV subscriptions in a jiffy. You can also pay for your MTN, AIRTEL, GLO, 9MOBILE airtime and data and get that fast connection to the world out there.

black fridayOne important event that precedes Black Friday is Thanksgiving day. Thanksgiving day is a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the previous year. It is a national holiday celebrated in the United States, Canada, Liberia and the Caribbean Islands. The set date is usually the fourth Thursday of November in the United States.

So, you can begin to imagine when Black Friday really is. Well, it is the Friday right after the Thursday of Thanksgiving. This means Black Friday falls on the last Friday of the month November. It varies between the days 23rd to 26th of every November. This year, Black Friday falls on the 24th of November.

WHY BLACK FRIDAY?

black fridaySo, the name Black Friday came about in a shopping context where it was used to describe the heavy and congestive traffic that always occurred on the day after Thanksgiving. The term was first used in 1961. And even till now, it is still being used. Black Friday is usually the busiest shopping day of the year. This is because people see it as the unofficial precedence to Christmas.  Again, Black Friday is usually a day off for employees.

JEFF AND MACKENZIE BEZOS: VTPASS PROFILES

The world seems to always revolve around those it considers powerful and rich. And when it comes to power and wealth, one person that easily comes to mind is Jeff Bezos. Well, you might know Bezos as the founder of the world’s largest online retail company, Amazon. But there is actually more to him. And yes, there is his ‘resourceful, smart, brainy wife MacKenzie Bezos (alias Tuttle). This power couple has a lot of history hovering them which you would want to know about.

In like manner, VTpass is an online retail payment platform. And it solely deals with the provision of everyday services. This includes our everyday airtime and data services, cable TV subscriptions, electricity bills and so on. Hence, just by logging on to vtpass.com, you get to buy your MTN, AIRTEL, 9MOBILE, GLO airtime and data subscriptions. You can also renew your DSTV, STARTIMES AND GOTV subscriptions and electricity bills. In this light, we celebrate the person of Jeff Bezos as a success in the online trading sphere.

WHO IS JEFF BEZOS?

Jeff BezosJeff Bezos has an originally lengthy name which is spelt out as Jeffrey Preston Jorgensen in 1964. He was birthed by Ted and Jorgensen and Jacklyn Preston, who was 17 and with a rich heritage. After a year plus, Jacklyn left off her marriage with Ted and went for Miguel Mike Bezos. This caused Jeff’s panegyric name to simply become Jeff Bezos (not like it matters anyway).

Even as a child, Jeff showed deep interest in scientific matters. And all through his schooling, he pursued his interest. So that he went on to study electrical engineering and computer science at Princeton University.

BezosAfter school, Bezos worked in the computer science field and also ventured into the financial business, international trade and a hedge fund.

1994 was the year when Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in his garage at Seattle. And the rest is history. Right now, he owns nearly 17% of Amazon. His net worth is $95.4 bill. At a time, Bezos briefly topped Forbes’ ranks of the world’s richest in July 2017, as his online retailer’s stock surged.

SPACE TRAVEL

BezosBezo’s other passion is space travel. In fact, in an interview, he had when he was eighteen, he “said he wanted to build space hotels, amusement parks and colonies for 2 million or 3 million people who would be in orbit. According to him, ‘The whole idea is to preserve the earth’. And he has followed up with his dream with his aerospace company, Blue Origin. Right now, the space flight startup company is developing a reusable rocket that Bezos says will carry passengers. Even at this, Bezos has more ambitious plans for Blue Origin:

“We want to go everywhere, [requiring significantly lower launch costs.] Our number-one opponent is gravity. … The vision for Blue is pretty simple. We want to see millions of people living and working in space. That’s going to take a long time. I think it’s a worthwhile goal.”

Bezos exhibited an extension of his greatness when he purchased The Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million. Not just that, though, Bezos has contributed to the success of a whole lot of other companies. Companies like Airbnb, Linden Lab, Aviary, Google, Uber, Twitter etc. have benefitted from his funding. All these and much more are part of the Bezos Expedition.

And you would want to know that he featured in one of the Star Wars seasons.

MACKENZIE BEZOS

MacKenzieNot many will know Jeff Bezos’ wife. But the few who do knows that she is physically, mentally and financially on point. First off, she is a writer of great repute. Her first novel, The Testing of Luther Albright, won the 2006 American Book Award. She recently published another novel, Traps, in 2013.

bezosShe worked for Jeff Bezos in 1992 at his hedge fund job. During this time, she fell for his warm laughter and asked him out to a meal. After six months, they got married. And then, they moved to Seattle from New York together. So Mackenzie Bezos has been with Jeff right from his beginning as the founder of Amazon.

Right now, MacKenzie Bezos is the director of Bystander Revolution, an anti-bullying revolution which she founded in 2014.

So pretty much, this couple is making some big impact on humanity itself.

VTpass, as an online payment platform, is looking in the direction of greatness. And surely, we are heading there with our forward move to make the world a more convenient place. Now, you can easily buy your airtime, data, tv subscriptions and electricity bills by logging on to vtpass.com.

HOW OUR MOBILE PHONE REALLY WORKS

Have you ever known anyone to ponder on how we manage to seamlessly communicate with others on our mobile phone? And other people do not seem to understand the wireless connection and a proper two-way conversation. Well, this might be a weird thing to ask or ponder on. But it is an abiding question at the back of the mind of many. Also, we do not have to necessarily assume this to be merely a technological wonder. We can actually get to know how this connection come about.

mobile phoneFor one, VTpass, as an online payment platform, leverages on this seamless connection to provide the best of service for her customers. So that just by logging on to vtpass.com, you can get your daily services. You are looking to buy airtime and data, pay electricity bills and cable tv subscriptions? Then vtpass.com will work just fine for you. So, coming to our phone and the endless calls we seem to always make and receive. Not just that, we can even get information on the Internet, play game, watch TV and integrate other devices into our phones. How does it all really work?

Now, the mobile phone is a radio, a sort-of higher grade radio. But a radio still.radio,phonee

In fact, when the cell phones were not available, people with means could install radio telephones in their cars. But then, there was one central antenna tower per city, and perhaps 25 channels available on that tower. What this meant was that meant that the phone in your car needed a powerful transmitter — big enough to transmit through a long distance. It also meant there just were not enough channels to go round for everybody. Only a few people could use the radio-telephone.

The innovation of the cellular system laid in the division of cities into small cells. This meant extensive frequency reuse across a city so that millions of people can use cell phones simultaneously.

phone,vtpassA walkie-talkie kind of works in the same way. So, understanding the walkie-talkie will lead to an understanding of the cell phone. But of course, the cell phone works in a more complex way.

Now, the walkie-talkie is a half-duplex device. That is, two people communicating on a walkie-talkie use the same frequency, so only one person can talk at a time. On the other hand, a cell phone is a full-duplex device. That means that you use one frequency for talking and a second, separate frequency for listening. Both people on the call can talk at once.

And then, a walkie-talkie typically has one channel. A typical cell phone can communicate on 1,664 channels or more. Also, while walkie-talkie can transmit about 1 mile (1.6 kilometres) using a 0.25-watt transmitter.Cell phones operate within cells, not transmitters, and they can switch cells as they move around. Cells give mobile phones incredible range. Someone using a cell phone can drive hundreds of miles and maintain a conversation the entire time because of the cellular approach.

What further aids the cell connection is the use of low power transmitters. This allows for the same frequencies to be reused in nonadjacent cells. Each cell has about 56 voice channels available. In other words, in any cell, 56 people can be talking on their cell phone at one time. Analog cellular systems are considered first-generation mobile technology, or 1G. With digital transmission methods (2G), the number of available channels increases. And the increment has only continued with time.

Another thing you need to know is that all cell phones have special codes associated with them. These codes help identify the phone, the phone’s owner and the service provider. So these codes are responsible in some way for how calls are regulated by carriers.

But you would have discovered from all indications that the cell phone we have in your hands or home is one wonderful device. And its usefulness cannot be overemphasized. Also, we cannot afford to take all the connection we have access to for granted. To keep connected, you are to regularly renew your airtime and data.
