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.

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.

How multi-currency business accounts work: local details vs SWIFT, payment rails, the real cost of FX, safeguarding vs deposit protection, and hedging.
How UK, US, Canadian and European firms pay Nigerian suppliers and get paid by Nigerian clients: FX, Form A and M, tax, compliance and payout routes.
What it really costs to send money to Nigeria from the UK, US, Canada and Europe: fees, exchange-rate margins, CBN naira rules, BVN, speed and scams.
What AI can and cannot do in day-to-day bookkeeping, how much time it saves on real numbers, and which jobs must stay with you or your accountant.
What Form NXP is, who files it, and how euros from a Spanish buyer must come back to Nigeria under the 2026 FX Manual, with the 90-day rule.
Form NXP is the Nigerian export declaration that a Nigerian exporter files, through its bank on the trade platform, before goods leave for Spain or anywhere else. Under the CBN Foreign Exchange Manual 2026, non-oil export proceeds must return to the exporter's export domiciliary account within 90 days (180 days for oil and gas), according to a Mondaq summary of 24 June 2026.
Whether you are a Nigerian business selling shea butter, sesame or fashion to a Spanish customer, or a Spanish buyer wondering why your supplier keeps asking for documents, the Form NXP is at the centre of it. It is how Nigeria tracks what leaves the country and makes sure the payment comes back through the banking system.
The Nigeria Trade Information Portal's export procedure (2025) describes Form NXP as the declaration for commercial exports; a separate Form NCX covers non-commercial ones. The Nigerian exporter files it through its authorised dealer bank on the trade platform. The Spanish buyer files nothing in Nigeria, but needs the exporter to have done it, because without it the goods cannot be lawfully exported and the exporter's bank cannot match the incoming payment.
The NTIP lists what a Nigerian exporter needs in place first:
After the HS code is confirmed, the NTIP sequence runs: Form NXP, then permits through the Single Window where the product needs them (NAFDAC, quarantine, the Federal Produce Inspection Service, SON on request and others), a certificate of origin, pre-shipment inspection, and a customs declaration on B'Odogwu through a licensed customs agent. The goods then leave from a port such as Apapa, Tin Can, Lekki or Onne.
Payment terms are recorded too. The NTIP names letters of credit, bills for collection and open account. A Spanish buyer paying on open account should expect the exporter to quote the NXP reference so its bank can link the payment.
The CBN Foreign Exchange Manual 2026 took effect on 1 June 2026. Mondaq's summary says export proceeds must be credited to the export domiciliary account within 90 days for non-oil exports and 180 days for oil and gas, with a 1% penalty for breach. TheNigeriaLawyer (2 June 2026) and TheCable (3 June 2026) both report that cash withdrawals from export proceeds accounts are no longer permitted, and TheNigeriaLawyer adds that transfers of export proceeds to third parties must state their purpose.
Example only. A Kano exporter ships sesame to Valencia on 1 March on 60-day open-account terms. Payment due on 30 April falls inside the 90 days. If the buyer pays 45 days late, the money lands outside the window and the exporter risks the penalty. That is why Nigerian exporters often push for shorter terms, advance payment or a letter of credit, and why a Spanish buyer who pays on time is a valuable customer.
Spanish buyers often see the effects of these without knowing the cause. Exporters can avoid them with a checklist:
A Spanish buyer can help by paying to the account named on the invoice, quoting the invoice number, and telling the exporter at once if the order changes after the NXP is filed.
The NEPC's Export Expansion Grant uses the NXP, certified by the bank, Customs and the inspection agent, as part of the evidence an exporter submits, along with CBN confirmation that proceeds were repatriated. A well-kept NXP file therefore supports both compliance and incentives. For the general rules on export proceeds, see Form NXP and export proceeds in plain words.
Spanish buyers can read the other side in paying a Nigerian supplier from Spain and, for food, EU checks on Nigerian sesame.
For the Nigerian exporter, export proceeds must flow through the bank holding the export domiciliary account, so that is where the buyer should pay. Pryme does not replace that account. A Pryme Business Account can help with everything around it: paying Spanish service providers in euros, managing naira costs, and keeping verifiable receipts from VerifyDoc.ai. The Finance agent can track which invoices are inside the 90-day window; a person approves any payment.
