There are four steps in buying a card in Quick Grab

Step one: Personal Information

Enter your personal details as it is on your identification document (which can be your Passport, driving license, national ID). In this same step, you have to provide your full name and phone number . The phone number should not be linked to another UBA card. Lastly, select a card type from the drop down. learn more about card segments here here

Step Two: Documents Required

Provide the documents for the card type chosen. Each segment has different documents needed to be able to buy the card. Some of the necessary documents for the cards are:

  1. National ID card
  2. Tax payers card
  3. Passport size photo
  4. Proof of income

“A proof of income is only needed if you select a segment three card”


There are two documents Quick Grab can help obtain on your behalf, that is the tax payer card and a passport size photo. In case you want Quick Grab to help you obtain any of these documents, tick the respective document. The cost of each document is reflected beside the check box. However, if you believe you can obtain these docs yourself, you leave them unchecked.

Step 3: delivery Information

When the card is ready, it can be delivered to the your location. First you have to select if you want to pick up the card at the Quick Grab office (at clerks quarter Buea) or if the card should be delivered via a traveling agency. At that, you will need to enter a city of residence, see list of cities and prices here. In addition, select any preferred delivery agency the card can be delivered through (this is optional).


“If you are buying on behalf of someone, you have to enter their delivery information”

Step 4: Confirm Details

It is important to ensure there is no wrong information. Also, the card can only be delivered after payment. (See how to make payment on QG here). Once the card is ready, it will be delivered to the provided location.


“An activation code will be emailed to the user's email to activate the card. If users lose the identification code, they will need to pay extra platform charges to get another activation code. The code can only be used ones to activate the UBA card.”
