Before you try to shop online, you must get a card that can be used for online shopping. The card can either be Visa or MasterCard. In Ghana, you can get a card for online shopping from UBA Bank, Access Bank, GT Bank and Zenith Bank. The other banks do give but these are the ones I recommend.
You can also get a MasterCard from payoneer (recommended) and through affiliate marketing on freelancing online, you get paid on to your card. I prefer the payoneer MasterCard because, you can use it to shop directly on any paypal or international online shopping site. I will share more when we get into details

You need to get a USA shipping address because eBay doesn’t ship directly to Ghana. With this address, your order would be send there and forwarded to your Ghana address. One of the best USA forwarding companies is MyUS.com. Sign up and get your US shipping address today.
