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.

Enugu SME Center loans: what it offers and how to apply

What the Enugu MSME & Startup Agency actually offers: grants, a SMEDAN matching fund through a bank, training, and how to get on its database.

PE
Pryme editorialGovernment schemes desk · 19 Oct 2026 · 5 min read
The short answer

The Enugu SME Center, now presented as the Enugu MSME & Startup Agency, mainly offers grants, training and help reaching finance rather than direct cash loans. Its affordable-loan route has been the ₦1 billion SMEDAN matching fund announced in February 2024, disbursed through Sterling Bank, and the first step for any of its programmes is registering on the state MSME database.

What the Enugu SME Center is

The Enugu SME Center is the state agency for nano, micro, small and medium businesses and start-ups. Its website, enugusme.en.gov.ng, now calls it the Enugu MSME & Startup Agency and dates its work from 2023, when it began mapping nano-enterprises across all 17 local government areas. It describes six areas of work, including entrepreneurship and skills, access to finance and grants, technology, innovation workspaces, policy and data, and market access.

The agency's headline figures, as published on its site in October 2026: more than 100,000 enterprises mapped, more than ₦2.5 billion in grants facilitated and 18,244 grant recipients across the 17 LGAs. It says 92.55% of the nano-enterprises it mapped were financially excluded and that much of its work is bringing them into the formal system through BVN and NIN registration and grants.

What it offers: loans, grants and training

Searchers usually want a loan. In practice the agency's money has mostly come as grants, with loans arranged through partner banks. The routes on record:

RouteTypeWhat was announcedSource and date
SMEDAN–Enugu Matching FundLoan via bank₦1 billion fund for affordable loans to NMSMEs; Sterling Bank to manage and disburse to qualifying businessesMSME Africa, Feb 2024
Nano-enterprise grantsGrant₦50,000 grants to thousands of verified nano-enterprises (agency timeline, 2024)Agency website, Oct 2026
Entrepreneurship interventionGrant₦1 billion, 80% to women-owned enterprises; ₦60,000 to over 16,000 mostly nano beneficiaries; ₦400,000 to 187 MSMEs; ₦7.5 million each to 10 tech start-upsPeoples Gazette (NAN), Aug 2024
Federal grant at the Enugu MSME ClinicGrant₦150,000 outright grants to exhibiting MSMEs at the expanded National MSME ClinicNairametrics, Oct 2024
Skills programmesFree trainingOpen in October 2026: DHL GO-TRADE export training, the SUPA-ITF artisan accelerator for 700 artisans, TVET for 500+ youths, digital marketing, green tech and animation coursesAgency website, Oct 2026

The grants above were one-off rounds. The agency's own October 2026 list of open programmes is made up of training courses, not a loan window, so check what is open before assuming money is available.

How to apply

The agency's processes run through its database and its programme pages. When the matching fund was announced, businesses were told to register on the State MSME Database and wait for eligibility criteria from the centre. The same pattern applies to grants: verified, registered enterprises are the pool from which beneficiaries are drawn.

  1. Register your business on the Enugu State MSME database through the agency's website, with your BVN and NIN to hand.
  2. If you are not yet registered with the CAC, consider doing so; bank-managed loans usually ask for it. See whether CAC registration is needed for government loans.
  3. Check the Programmes page for anything marked open and apply on that page before the stated close date.
  4. For a loan under a bank-managed fund, expect the bank's own checks: account statements, identification, business documents and its credit assessment.
  5. Keep copies of everything you submit and any reference number.

Who the agency serves

The agency groups its work by the kind of enterprise, and the support differs for each. Knowing which group you fall into tells you which programme page to watch.

  • Nano-enterprises: market traders, food vendors and petty traders. Support has been small grants, BVN and NIN registration and help into formal finance. The agency says 68% of these businesses are women-owned.
  • Artisans and vocational trades: electricians, plumbers, painters, tailors, mechanics and fashion makers. Support is practical training, tools and certification, for example the TVET and SUPA-ITF programmes.
  • Small and growing businesses: established MSMEs looking for affordable finance, business training, market access and the National MSME Clinics that bring regulators and financiers together.
  • Start-ups and innovators: tech founders and digital talent, supported through incubation, the Innovation Park and hackathons. The 2024 intervention paid ₦7.5 million each to 10 tech start-ups.

What we could not confirm

We could not find a published interest rate, loan size, tenure or repayment method for the SMEDAN–Enugu matching fund, or whether it is still taking applications in 2026. A matching fund run through a bank is priced and approved by that bank, so the bank's offer letter is the document that sets your terms. Read the interest basis (monthly or yearly), any fees and the repayment dates, and work out the total you will repay before you sign. Our explainer on APR and flat fees shows how.

Where Pryme fits

Pryme is not a partner in the Enugu schemes. Bank-managed funds and grant verification both lean on clean records, and a Pryme Business Account keeps business takings separate, with statements you can share. Through our partnership with VerifyDoc.ai you can also generate a verifiable statement that a reviewer can check is genuine (receipts and statements). For other states, see how to find your state's MSME loan scheme.

Questions people ask

Does Enugu SME Center give loans?

Mostly it gives grants and training and links businesses to finance. Its loan route on record is the ₦1 billion SMEDAN matching fund (Feb 2024) managed and disbursed by Sterling Bank, which sets the loan terms.

How do I register on the Enugu MSME database?

Through the Enugu MSME & Startup Agency website, enugusme.en.gov.ng. Have your BVN, NIN and business details ready.

Is the Enugu ₦50,000 grant still available?

The agency's site lists ₦50,000 nano grants as a 2024 round. Its open programmes in October 2026 are training courses, so check the site for any new grant round.

Who do I contact at Enugu SME Center?

The site lists info@enugusme.en.gov.ng and the numbers 08028545013 and 09128954467 (October 2026).
