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 Flexible Boxes can be withdrawn at any time, Fixed Boxes hold to a date, Investment Boxes hold for longer, and Interest-free Boxes earn nothing by design.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.

NYSC corper money guide for Asaba and Delta State

The ₦77,000 federal allowance, what an Asaba corper typically spends on rent, food and transport, and a plan that leaves something saved.

PE
Pryme editorialCities desk, Asaba · 19 Oct 2026 · 4 min read
The short answer

The federal allowance for NYSC corps members is ₦77,000 a month, paid from the March 2025 payout onwards, as confirmed by NYSC to TheCable. In Asaba, that sum has to cover a share of rent, feeding and transport unless your place of primary assignment (PPA) adds a stipend or lodging, which it is not obliged to do. A corper who shares a room, cooks most meals and keeps transport to keke routes can usually save part of each month.

What the allowance is, and what it is not

The monthly allowance paid to corps members by the federal government rose to ₦77,000, and NYSC began paying the new rate with the March 2025 payout, according to TheCable, which quoted NYSC spokesperson Caroline Embu (27 March 2025). Before that the figure was ₦33,000, set in 2020, and before 2020 it was ₦19,800, as Africa Check set out when it debunked a false 2024 claim of a ₦70,000-plus rise. If you see a different number on social media, treat it as unconfirmed until NYSC itself announces it.

The allowance is the only money every corper is sure of. Some employers and some state governments pay extra, but that is a choice, not a rule. In 2021 the NYSC Lagos coordinator urged employers to pay stipends where they provide no transport or accommodation, as reported by Peoples Gazette; that was an appeal, and it does not oblige a PPA in Delta State to pay anything. Ask your PPA in writing in the first week what, if anything, it pays and when.

Where corpers in Asaba tend to be posted

Asaba is the Delta State capital, so many PPAs are state ministries and agencies, local government offices in Oshimili South and Oshimili North, schools, hospitals, banks, law firms and private companies along the main roads. Your posting letter, not this guide, decides where you go. Distance matters more than prestige when it comes to money: a PPA you can reach on one keke ride costs far less each month than one that needs two changes.

Before you agree a room, map the route from it to your PPA and ask a serving corper what the daily fare is. For fare ranges by route, see our guide to keke, cab and bus fares in Asaba.

Rent, feeding and transport: example costs

There is no official survey of corper costs in Asaba. The figures below are labelled examples built for planning from typical arrangements; your actual costs depend on the area, the landlord and how you live. Check current asking prices with landlords and serving corpers before you commit.

Item (example, not a quote)Shared arrangementLiving alone
Room or self-contain, per year₦150,000 (your half of ₦300,000)₦300,000 to ₦450,000
Feeding, per month (mostly cooking)₦35,000 to ₦45,000₦40,000 to ₦55,000
Transport to PPA, per month₦8,000 to ₦15,000₦8,000 to ₦15,000
Data and airtime, per month₦5,000 to ₦8,000₦5,000 to ₦8,000
Toiletries and small items, per month₦4,000 to ₦6,000₦4,000 to ₦6,000

Rent is the cost that breaks corper budgets, because landlords usually ask for a year up front plus agent and agreement fees. Some PPAs, churches and community associations offer lodges or shared quarters; ask before you pay a landlord. Our Asaba rent guide by area explains the fees that come on top of rent.

Worked example: a month on the allowance

This is an example, not a forecast. A corper receives the ₦77,000 allowance and a ₦20,000 PPA stipend, shares a room whose rent is ₦300,000 a year, and sets aside a monthly amount to repay the rent money borrowed from family.

  • Income: ₦77,000 + ₦20,000 = ₦97,000
  • Rent share set aside: ₦150,000 ÷ 12 = ₦12,500
  • Feeding: ₦40,000
  • Transport: ₦12,000
  • Data and airtime: ₦6,000
  • Toiletries and small items: ₦5,000
  • Total spending: ₦12,500 + ₦40,000 + ₦12,000 + ₦6,000 + ₦5,000 = ₦75,500
  • Left to save: ₦97,000 − ₦75,500 = ₦21,500

Over a 12-month service year, ₦21,500 a month comes to ₦258,000. Without the stipend the same corper would have ₦1,500 left each month, which is why the stipend question matters so much and why cooking rather than buying food is the biggest lever you control.

How to save while serving

  1. Move the amount you plan to save on the day the allowance lands, before you spend anything.
  2. Keep a small cash float for keke fares and market buying, and pay larger amounts by transfer so you have a record.
  3. Buy foodstuff in bulk with a roommate once a month; see our guide to Ogbeogonogo market for how buying there works.
  4. Do not take loans against your allowance from anyone who will not show the full cost in writing first.
  5. Think about the year after service now: a saved sum of ₦200,000 or more gives you room to job-hunt or rent a place.

Where Pryme fits

A Pryme Personal Account can be opened from your phone, and a Naira Savings Box lets you lock away the amount you planned to save; rates are shown in the app. Your Personal Assistant (default name Eva) can remind you on allowance day and prepare transfers that only move when you approve them; see how the assistant works. Naira deposits are held by Solid Allianze Microfinance Bank, licensed by the CBN and insured by the NDIC up to the applicable limit. You can open an account here.

Questions people ask

How much is NYSC allowance now in 2026?

The federal allowance is ₦77,000 a month. NYSC began paying that rate with the March 2025 payout, according to TheCable. Check NYSC announcements for any later change.

Does my PPA in Asaba have to pay me a stipend?

No rule we found obliges a PPA to pay. NYSC officials have urged employers to support corps members, but it is the PPA's choice. Ask in writing early.

How much is a self-contain for a corper in Asaba?

There is no official figure. As a labelled example, a shared room around ₦300,000 a year or a self-contain between ₦300,000 and ₦450,000 a year are planning numbers; confirm with landlords before paying.

Can a corper save money in Asaba?

Yes, if rent is shared and you cook. In our worked example, a corper with a ₦20,000 stipend saves ₦21,500 a month; without the stipend the margin falls to about ₦1,500.
