How it works
1
Confirm eligibility and verification
The customer initiating the order completes the identity or business verification required for the profile, corridor and payment purpose.
2
Enter and review the receiving account
Check the beneficiary name, Nigerian bank, account number, payment purpose and displayed order terms before confirming the instruction.
3
Follow the final payout status
A submitted or processing order is not proof of receipt. Wait for the final status, then retain the available reference and receipt for confirmation or reconciliation.
Frequently asked questions

Eligible inbound transfers may be paid out in NGN to a supported Nigerian bank account. Availability depends on verification, corridor support, transaction review, banking partners, limits and applicable Nigerian requirements.
Which beneficiary details should be prepared?+
Prepare the account name, Nigerian bank, account number and payment purpose. Confirm that the details match the intended beneficiary before submitting the order.
