To verify my card, deductions were made to be refunded. i got the statement from my bank but I didn't see any code to use for the verification. I have done it twice now and both times deductions were made but no code attached to my bank statement or alert on my phone via sms.
You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country. You can only link a credit card. So if the card can't be linked the code/small deposits should time out 30 days later and go back to your card issuer, they may take a bit longer to process your refund.
The option to receive paypal payments is sadly not available in Nigeria. You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.
Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer. There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.
