You are not borrowing. You are selling to somebody who already has the money — and that money can only be spent with a business like yours.

Eva waits for your rate and asks before she moves anything.
No card, no OTP, nothing for the buyer to type in. They transfer from the bank app they already use, and the money lands in the same account your agents are running — already matched to the order, already in your books.

Resolved 4 conversations — two deliveries, one refund.The business has changed shape four times and never changed what it was rooted in. Each version was built out of what the last one could not do.
An online grocery store, built out of a faulty tab. Selling the food was the easy part — taking the money for it, and moving it, turned out to be the business.
A prepaid card. The first time the company issued rather than resold, and the first time it carried the obligations that come with holding somebody else’s money.
Solid Allianze acquired — an existing bank with an existing licence. The perimeter stopped being someone else’s to draw.
More than one currency on one balance, and the rebrand to Pryme. A Nigerian business could hold dollars without holding a second institution.
Accounts that do the work rather than only hold value. Five agents on the account, inside a policy you write — which is where the new mark starts.
Pryme is a financial technology company. It gives people and businesses in Nigeria one account that holds Naira alongside dollars, pounds and euros, and a set of agents that do the running of it — keeping the books, chasing what is owed, answering customers and paying bills. Nothing leaves an account without the owner’s approval.
Yes. A Pryme account holds Naira, US dollars, pounds sterling and euros side by side on one ledger, each with its own account details — a Nigerian account number, a US account number, a UK sort code and an IBAN for the euro area. You can swap between them at a rate you set, and every currency has its own statement.
Spaces is available in Nigeria. It gives a shopper money to spend that can only be spent with a participating business. The business is paid into its Naira account whether or not the shopper repays, because Pryme carries the credit. For the business it is free to join, there is nothing monthly, and the customer’s identity is never shown — only a reference and what it is worth.
Five agents come with the account. The Chief of Staff runs the week and keeps what is stuck moving. Finance watches the money and keeps the books as you trade. Compliance keeps the filings on time and screens what moves. Sales chases what you are owed. Customer Support answers your customers and follows up. Each has a job description, a budget and a ceiling you set, and each one proposes rather than acts — nothing leaves the account without your signature.
Pryme Pay takes payments on your own site or on a checkout page you control. The buyer is given a one-time account number and transfers to it from any bank app or by USSD — no card, no OTP, nothing to type in. The money lands in the same account your agents are running, already matched to the order and already in your books.
Savings Boxes are separate pots inside a Pryme account, held in Naira. Flexible Boxes can be withdrawn at any time, Fixed Boxes hold to a date, Investment Boxes hold for longer, and Interest-free Boxes earn nothing by design. A business can use them to ring-fence payroll and the tax it withholds, so that money cannot be spent by accident.
Pryme is a financial technology company, not a bank. Accounts and deposits are provided by Solid Allianze Microfinance Bank Limited, which is licensed by the Central Bank of Nigeria and is a member of the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Yes. Pryme Rails lets a platform issue a dedicated Naira account number to each of its own customers, collect into it and reconcile against it, over one API — the same rails the Pryme Business Account runs on.

Accounts are provided in Nigeria today, subject to verification and approval. Foreign-currency balances are held and converted inside that account, so you can hold, receive and swap dollars, pounds and euros wherever you are.

Swap at a rate you set rather than the rate of the day, then send to any Pryme username or to a Nigerian bank account. There is no fee to send to another Pryme account.

Chrome and Safari encrypt saved passwords, but shared computers, weak screen locks and malware can expose them. When saving is fine, and when not.
Browser vaults such as Google Password Manager and iCloud Keychain encrypt saved passwords, so saving a bank password on your own, well-locked device is reasonably safe. They are not safe on shared or office computers, on a phone with a weak screen lock, on a device with malware, or when the Google or Apple account behind them is weak.
When Chrome or Safari offers to save your internet banking password, it is putting it into a password vault: Google Password Manager for Chrome, iCloud Keychain for Safari. These vaults are encrypted and, used properly, are far safer than the habits most people fall back on, such as one password for everything, or a password written in the phone’s notes app. The risk is not the vault. The risk is who can get past the screen, account or computer in front of it.
Google’s help page says passwords and passkeys are "stored behind Google’s built-in security with encryption", and that you can save them to your Google Account (so they sync across devices) or on the device only. You can review and change them at passwords.google.com. Google also says Password Manager can warn you when a saved password has been published online, which is useful after a breach. The page links to an option called on-device encryption and to a Password Manager PIN; both add a further layer, so look for them in the Password Manager settings.
On iPhone, saved passwords sit in Keychain. Apple’s Stolen Device Protection, when switched on, requires Face ID or Touch ID, with no passcode fallback, to use passwords or passkeys saved in Keychain when the phone is away from familiar locations. That closes the main hole on a stolen iPhone, which is a thief who has seen your passcode.
Each of these situations turns a well-encrypted vault into an open book.
| Situation | Why it is a problem | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Shared or family computer, one Windows login | Anyone who sits down is already "you" to Chrome | Do not save bank passwords there; use a separate Windows or Chrome profile with its own password |
| Phone with a weak screen lock, or several people’s fingerprints | Getting past the screen often means getting into the vault | Strong passcode, only your biometrics enrolled |
| Google or Apple account with a weak password and no 2-step verification | If synced, the vault is only as strong as that account | Secure the account first |
| Browser on a phone or PC with malware | Some malicious software is built to copy browser-saved logins | Only install from official stores; never install "support" or remote-access apps on request |
| Cyber café or office computer | You do not control who uses it next | Never save; use a private window and log out |
Malware that steals browser-saved passwords is widely reported by security researchers, and it usually arrives through cracked software, fake app downloads or files sent on WhatsApp. If a computer has ever run "free" versions of paid software, treat any passwords saved on it as exposed.
A bank password on its own is rarely enough to move money in Nigeria. Most banks add a second step: a hardware or soft token, an OTP, or an in-app approval. GTBank, for example, says on its 737 page that its *737*7# soft token code is valid for 120 seconds and is used for internet banking, the mobile app and GTWorld. Zenith’s FAQ lists a hardware token. That second step is why a saved password is less dangerous for a bank than for, say, your email.
The order of importance therefore runs like this:
A dedicated password manager is not automatically safer, but it has two advantages: it works across different browsers and phones, and it usually has its own master password, separate from your Google or Apple account. The browser vault’s advantage is that it is already there and is protected by an account you already secure. Either is far better than reusing passwords. Our guide to password managers for Nigerians walks through the choice.
Pryme sign-in approval uses an authenticator app, and transfers need a separate transaction PIN, so a saved password on its own is not enough to move money. See the security page.
On your own device with a strong screen lock and a secured Google Account, the encrypted vault is reasonably safe. Do not save it on shared or office computers, and never save your PIN or token codes.
Anyone who gets past your screen lock may be able to view them. On iPhone, Stolen Device Protection requires Face ID or Touch ID to use Keychain passwords away from familiar places.
Go to passwords.google.com or Chrome’s Password Manager, choose the site and delete the entry.
Not automatically. A separate manager works across browsers and has its own master password; Chrome’s vault relies on your Google Account security. Either beats reusing passwords.
