AI agents for business finance: what they can and can't do
What AI agents can do in bookkeeping, close, collections and compliance today, where a person must stay in charge, and how to judge a product.
Meet Eva, the assistant inside the Pryme app. She opens accounts, moves money, saves toward your goals and follows up. Nothing leaves your account without your approval.
Meet Eva, the assistant inside the Pryme app. She holds dollars, pounds, euros and Naira side by side, swaps at a locked rate, pays bills in any of them and sends anywhere, asking before anything moves.













We give you a limit to spend at the shops and services you already use — and an account that works on your month while you get on with it. Dollars, pounds and euros sit beside your Naira, and an assistant handles the running of it, asking you first every single time.
One global account for your money and business. Move across currencies, automate everyday operations and put AI agents to work — with you in control of every important decision.

BruceCareYour competitor down the road sells the same thing you sell. The difference is who walks in. We put money in people’s hands that can only be spent in businesses like yours — and then we point them at you.
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.
We give the buyer a one-time account number. They transfer to it from any bank app or by USSD — no card, no OTP, nothing to type in.

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.

What Parthian's i-invest publishes on fees, minimum amounts and withdrawals, what it does not, and how to find the real cost before you invest.
Parthian Partners' published pages give i-invest's treasury bill minimum as ₦10,000, and a 2021 TechCabal profile put the savings minimum at ₦200 and said withdrawals from your available balance can be made 24 hours a day once KYC is complete. We found no published fee schedule on the pages we could open in October 2026; the 2021 profile described the app as bringing investments to users "at no extra cost", so confirm any charge on the confirmation screen in the app.
Precise fee information for i-invest is thin on the open web. The app's own website blocked automated reading when we checked in October 2026, so this article relies on two sources: Parthian Partners' treasury bill explainer (last modified 24 June 2026), and a December 2021 TechCabal profile based on an interview with Parthian's chief executive. Where neither says something, we say so rather than fill the gap.
| Item | What the source says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| T-bill minimum | Small volumes "from N10,000" on the i-invest app | Parthian Partners, modified Jun 2026 |
| Savings minimum | Customers "can save as low as ₦200" | TechCabal, Dec 2021 |
| Equities minimum | The value of one share, per the profile | TechCabal, Dec 2021 |
| Fees | No schedule published; described as "no extra cost" | TechCabal, Dec 2021 |
| Withdrawal | From available balance, 24 hours a day, once KYC is complete | TechCabal, Dec 2021 |
| KYC verification | "within 24hours your KYC should be verified" | TechCabal, Dec 2021 |
The 2021 figures may have changed. Treat them as a starting point and check the app's current terms.
An investment app can earn money without charging a visible fee. On treasury bills, a dealer may buy at one rate and sell to you at a slightly lower one, keeping the difference. On a money market or mutual fund, the fund manager deducts a management charge before the return is shown. Neither appears as a separate fee, but both reduce what you receive. So the useful comparison is the net rate you will earn, not the presence or absence of a fee.
Example only, with invented rates. Suppose the CBN's stop rate on a 364-day bill is 18%, and an app offers you the bill at 17.5%. On ₦100,000 face value, the discount at 18% would be ₦100,000 × 18% × 364 ÷ 365 = ₦17,951; at 17.5% it is ₦100,000 × 17.5% × 364 ÷ 365 = ₦17,452. You pay ₦499 more for the same ₦100,000 at maturity. That gap is the cost of buying through the intermediary, even if the app shows no fee. Check the rate on our treasury bill stop rates page against the rate offered in the app.
The 2021 profile's statement that you can withdraw 24 hours a day applies to your available balance, meaning cash sitting in your wallet. Money you have put into a treasury bill or a fixed product is a different matter. A T-bill pays out at maturity; Parthian's page says bills can be sold before maturity on the OTC market, but it does not give the price, the timing or whether the app handles it for you. Expect three separate steps when you want your money back:
If you might need the money before a bill matures, a product that allows daily withdrawal is a better fit. Our guide to money market funds explains how those differ from T-bills.
A ₦10,000 entry point for treasury bills is low compared with the ₦100,000 that Parthian's page says some commercial banks accept, but the minimum is only the start of the cost picture. On a small purchase, a fixed charge of any kind takes a larger share of the return. Suppose, as an example only, an app charged a flat ₦200 handling fee. On ₦10,000 that is 2% of your money, which could absorb more than a month of interest on a bill; on ₦500,000 the same charge is 0.04%. We have no evidence that i-invest charges such a fee. The point is to do the arithmetic on your own amount once the app shows you its charges.
Minimums can also differ between products inside the same app. The 2021 profile listed treasury bills, fixed deposits, mutual funds, dollar products, local equities, Eurobonds, commercial papers and savings plans. Each may have its own entry level and its own exit rules, so read the product page before you move money between them.
For the purchase process itself, see how to buy treasury bills on i-invest.
Pryme is not an investment platform for T-bills. For naira savings, Savings Boxes show the rate in the app before you put money in, and the Personal Assistant can remind you when a plan matures so the money does not sit idle.
No fee schedule was published on the pages we could open in October 2026. A 2021 TechCabal profile said the app offers investments at no extra cost. Check the confirmation screen and the net rate before you invest.
Parthian Partners says treasury bills start from ₦10,000 on the app. TechCabal reported in 2021 that savings could start from ₦200.
TechCabal reported that you can withdraw your available balance 24 hours a day once KYC is complete. Money in a T-bill is paid at maturity unless it is sold early.
Parthian's page says T-bills can be sold before maturity on the OTC market, but it does not describe how the app handles this. Ask support for the current process and price.

When cash savings work, when health or life cover does better, what cover costs as at Oct 2026, and how to combine both in Nigeria.
The Interest-free Box earns nothing by design. Who chooses it, for faith or for discipline, what it costs you when prices rise, and how to use it well.
Both hold your naira to a date, but one is a fixed-term deposit at a rate shown upfront and the other funds lending, with a return that depends on it.
You can add the other type later — many of our customers hold both.
