How do I remove security plugin from PalmPay? In this article, I will share with you how to uninstall PalmPay Security Plugin or deactivate reminders on any Android Phone.
To begin, PalmPay is one of several enterprises that arose as a result of the people’s declining economy and the development of loan apps.
People borrow money without collateral and pay later. So when you borrow, the company takes a risk as there is no collateral.
To reduce the risk on their part, they install an app called the security plugin on your phone to track and keep reminding you should in case you default or don’t want to pay.
The PalmPay Security Plugin is generally installed in your phone’s settings and security section. This makes it somewhat difficult to bypass for a non-tech savvy. It works as a reminder to alert you on your pending debt.
If you do not pay, the security plugin allows PalmPay to remotely access your phone and collect your contact, and photos, and share them online. It is a way of tracking you.

If PalmPay accesses your phone with their security plugin, it simply means you refused to pay the remaining debt or have defaulted on any other terms and conditions as agreed on the loan.
You can uninstall the security plugin as discussed below:

Pay Your Loan
The first way and easiest way to remove the PalmPay security plugin from your phone is to pay your loan. Once you do this your phone will not be tracked.
If after you make a repayment you still can’t get rid of or deactivate the plugin then you can simply go to any PalmPay office for assistance.
Please note that I do not advise you to not pay your debt with PalmPay. Remember you submitted vital information about yourself when borrowing the money including your BVN.
You should flash the phone to bypass the reminder only if you’re not the one who bought the phone from PalmPay.
