Ten years, one trunk

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.

2016E-commerce

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.

2018OjirehPrime Card

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.

2020Microfinance bank

PrymeSolid Allianze acquired — an existing bank with an existing licence. The perimeter stopped being someone else’s to draw.

2023Multicurrency

More than one currency on one balance, and the rebrand to Pryme. A Nigerian business could hold dollars without holding a second institution.

2026Agentic operations

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.

Questions

The things people ask us first.

What is Pryme?

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.

Can I hold dollars, pounds and euros in a Pryme account?

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.

What is Spaces?

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.

What do the agents on a Pryme Business Account do?

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.

How does Pryme Pay work?

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.

What are Savings Boxes?

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.

Who holds my money, and is it protected?

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.

Can I build on Pryme?

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.

What is Pryme?

Pryme is a financial technology company. It gives you one account that holds US dollars, pounds sterling and euros beside Naira, with an assistant that runs the account for you and asks before anything moves. Accounts are provided in Nigeria today, and further markets open as each licence lands.

Can I open a Pryme account from outside Nigeria?

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.

Which currencies can I hold with Pryme?

Naira, US dollars, pounds sterling and euros, side by side on one ledger. Each has its own details — a Nigerian account number, a US account number, a UK sort code and an IBAN for the euro area — and each has its own statement.

How do I send money to Nigeria with Pryme?

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.

What does the assistant do?

Eva is the assistant inside the Pryme app. She opens accounts, moves money, saves toward your goals, pays what is due and follows up what is owed to you — and asks you before anything moves.

What is Pryme Rails?

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.

Becoming a CAC accredited agent: requirements and earnings

Who CAC accredits as a registration agent, the form and the ₦10,000 fee, how long it takes, and how agents price their services.

PE
Pryme editorialMake money desk · 19 Oct 2026 · 4 min read
The short answer

The Corporate Affairs Commission lists accreditation of lawyers, chartered accountants and chartered secretaries as professional agents, applied for on Form CAC-MISC 01. CAC's fee schedule published in May 2025 sets agent registration at a one-off ₦10,000, and its service charter targets 24 working hours to process accreditation. Agents earn a service charge on top of CAC's own fees for registrations, annual returns and changes.

What a CAC accredited agent does

An accredited agent files registrations and post-registration changes for clients through the CAC online portal. Typical work includes reserving names, registering business names and companies, filing annual returns, changing directors or addresses and requesting certified copies. Under the Companies Regulations 2021, documents filed through an accredited agent's portal account are treated as duly authenticated, which is part of why the role carries responsibility: you are vouching for what you submit.

Being an agent is not the only way to get a business registered. Anyone can register their own business name or company on the portal; see registering with CAC yourself. Agents earn because many owners would rather pay someone to avoid queries, rejected names and wasted time.

Who can be accredited

CAC's Operations Checklists (2022) list the service as "Accreditation of Lawyers, Chartered Accountants and Chartered Secretaries as Professional Agents", and name the form as Application for Accreditation of Professional/Agent (Form CAC-MISC 01). In practice that points to three groups:

  • Lawyers called to the Nigerian Bar
  • Chartered accountants (members of a recognised accounting body)
  • Chartered secretaries

The pages we read did not set out every condition, such as which proof of membership or practising licence CAC asks for, or whether people outside those three professions can be accredited for any service. Before you apply, ask CAC directly through its help desk or a CAC office, and keep the written answer.

Steps, fee and timeline

  1. Confirm you belong to an eligible profession and have current proof of membership.
  2. Create an account on the CAC portal and complete Form CAC-MISC 01 (Application for Accreditation of Professional/Agent).
  3. Pay the accreditation fee. CAC's New Schedule of Fees (gazetted 29 May 2025) lists accredited agents' registration at ₦10,000, one-off.
  4. Wait for approval. CAC's Service Charter (May 2023) gives a target of 24 working hours for accreditation of registration agents.
  5. Once accredited, you can log in with your accreditation number as well as email or phone, according to CAC's FAQ.

Fees change by gazette, so check the current schedule on the CAC website before you pay. Our guide to CAC registration fees tracks the client-side fees.

How agents price their services

Your quote has two parts: CAC's statutory fee, which you pass through at cost, and your service charge. Show both on the invoice. Clients compare agents, and hiding the official fee inside one number invites disputes when they later read the schedule.

ServiceCAC fee (schedule of May 2025)Your service charge
Business name: name reservation₦1,000Usually bundled
Business name registration, including certified true copy₦20,000Your price
Business name annual return₦5,000Your price
Small private company₦10,000 per ₦1m of share capital or part, plus ₦1,000 name reservation; stamp duty paid separatelyYour price
Post-incorporation filing, small company₦5,000Your price
Status report₦5,000Your price

A worked example

Example only; service charges are illustrative. An agent charges ₦15,000 on top of CAC fees for a business name. The client pays ₦1,000 + ₦20,000 + ₦15,000 = ₦36,000. For a small company with ₦1 million share capital, the CAC fee is ₦10,000 plus ₦1,000 for the name, and the agent adds ₦50,000 for drafting the memorandum and articles and handling queries, so ₦61,000 plus stamp duty.

Over a month, 10 business names at ₦15,000 (₦150,000), 4 companies at ₦50,000 (₦200,000) and 15 annual returns at ₦5,000 each in service charges (₦75,000) bring in ₦425,000 in fees for the agent, before data, office and marketing costs. Annual returns are the steady part: every client you register is a filing to remind them about every year, as explained in CAC annual returns.

Finding clients

Most agents build a practice from three sources. The first is referrals from people they have already registered, because owners ask friends who handled their papers. The second is partnerships with businesses that see new entrepreneurs every week: accountants without CAC accreditation, banks' relationship officers, business account onboarding desks, printers and co-working spaces. The third is content: short, accurate explanations of CAC fees and steps, posted where small business owners look. Whichever you use, quote the CAC fee from the current schedule and your own charge separately, so clients can see you are not hiding anything.

Running it well

  • Keep a client file for every registration: IDs, signed consent, the documents uploaded and payment receipts.
  • Run a name search with the client before reserving, and offer two backup names.
  • Send a deadline reminder for each annual return; late filing carries a one-off penalty and daily default fees under the schedule.
  • Never use a client's portal login; file through your own accredited account.
  • Explain clearly that a business name and a limited company are different; our guide business name or limited company helps.

Where Pryme fits

Most clients you register will next need a business account. A Pryme Business Account can be opened from any country, and invoicing lets you bill the CAC fee and your service charge as separate lines.

Questions people ask

Can anybody become a CAC accredited agent?

CAC's checklist lists accreditation for lawyers, chartered accountants and chartered secretaries. The pages we read do not confirm whether others qualify, so ask CAC before applying.

How much is CAC accreditation fee for agents?

The CAC New Schedule of Fees gazetted on 29 May 2025 lists registration of accredited agents at ₦10,000, one-off. Check the current schedule on the CAC website before paying.

How long does CAC agent accreditation take?

CAC's Service Charter (May 2023) sets a target of 24 working hours for accreditation of registration agents. Queries on your documents can make it longer.

How much do CAC agents charge for business name registration?

Agents add their own service charge to CAC's fee of ₦1,000 for the name and ₦20,000 for registration. There is no official agent rate, so compare quotes and ask for the CAC fee to be shown separately.
