How to Earn from Reselling Bus Tickets in Nigeria | Intercity

You Shouldn’t Have to Miss Out on the Travel Money

Most people think the only way to make money from Nigeria’s transport industry is to own buses, operate a transport company, or spend long hours at a motor park. But that is no longer true.

Today, there is a simpler way to participate in one of Nigeria’s largest and most consistent industries without owning a single vehicle.

If you’ve ever wondered how to earn from reselling bus tickets in Nigeria, this guide will show you how ordinary Nigerians are generating extra income through the Intercity Reseller Program.

The Opportunity Nobody Talks About

Millions of Nigerians travel interstate every week. People travel:

For work
For school
For NYSC
For business
For family events
For holidays

Popular routes such as:

Interstate travel continue to experience strong demand regardless of economic conditions.

Unlike many side hustles that depend heavily on trends or seasons, interstate travel remains a necessity.

People will always need to move, that is what makes travel reselling such an attractive opportunity.

Why Travel Reselling Is Different

Many common side hustles offer relatively small commissions.

For example:

Airtime sales may generate only a few naira per transaction.
POS transactions often generate ₦50–₦100 per withdrawal.
Data reselling typically offers low margins.

Bus ticket reselling works differently.

A single interstate bus ticket can cost between ₦30,000 and ₦60,000.

With the Intercity Reseller Program, you earn a commission on every successful booking.

That means one booking can generate more earnings than several small daily transactions combined.

The Biggest Problem Has Always Been Access

Historically, getting into the travel business was difficult, you often needed to:

Build relationships with transport operators
Manage manual bookings
Collect customer payments
Track confirmations
Handle ticket issuance

For many aspiring entrepreneurs, these barriers made the opportunity inaccessible.

Intercity removes those barriers.

Intercity already provides:

Access to major transport operators

How Much Can You Earn Reselling Bus Tickets?

Let’s look at a simple example.

Average Ticket Value

Average interstate fare: ₦40,000

Reseller Commission

Commission rate: 2.5%

Commission per ticket:

₦40,000 × 2.5% = ₦1,000

Monthly Income Potential

10 tickets per month = ₦10,000

25 tickets per month = ₦25,000

50 tickets per month = ₦50,000

100 tickets per month = ₦100,000

For someone already operating a customer-facing business, reaching these numbers may be easier than expected.

Who Is This Opportunity Perfect For?

The best resellers are often people who already interact with customers daily, examples include:

POS Agents

Customers already trust you with transactions.

Adding ticket booking creates another revenue stream.

Kiosk Operators

Your location becomes a convenient booking point for travelers.

Shop Owners

Offer travel booking alongside your existing products and services.
