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.

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.
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.
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 AI agents can do in bookkeeping, close, collections and compliance today, where a person must stay in charge, and how to judge a product.
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.
Work out your cost per shoot, from editing hours to kit wear, then build portrait, event and wedding packages, with labelled naira examples.
Price photography from your cost per shoot: every hour of shooting and editing at a target hourly rate, plus transport, assistants, prints or albums, software and a share of equipment cost, then add margin. In the labelled example below, a portrait session costs about ₦57,700 to deliver and a wedding about ₦498,300, which sets the floor for the packages you offer.
Photographers often price by what others charge on Instagram. The trouble is that two photographers charging the same fee can have very different costs: one edits for three hours per shoot, the other for fifteen; one owns their kit outright, the other is paying it off. Knowing your own cost per shoot is the only way to know whether a package earns money.
The shoot is only part of the job. A wedding may mean a planning meeting, a pre-wedding shoot, a long day on location, culling thousands of frames, editing, album design and delivery. List every stage and time it for a few real jobs.
Then set a target hourly rate: what you need to earn per working hour to cover your own pay. If you want to earn ₦800,000 a month and can sell about 100 working hours a month, your target is ₦8,000 an hour (example figures).
All figures are examples using the ₦8,000 hourly target above.
| Line | Portrait session (₦) | Wedding (₦) |
|---|---|---|
| Time | 5 hrs × 8,000 = 40,000 | 35 hrs × 8,000 = 280,000 |
| Assistant | 0 | 50,000 |
| Transport | 8,000 | 30,000 |
| Equipment share | 6,667 | 13,334 (two shoot-days) |
| Album / prints | 0 | 120,000 |
| Software and storage | 3,000 | 5,000 |
| Cost to deliver | 57,667 | 498,334 |
A portrait priced at ₦75,000 leaves about ₦17,300 above cost, on top of your hourly pay. A wedding priced at ₦650,000 leaves about ₦151,700. If a client asks for a discount, you can see exactly how far you can go.
Packages make choosing easy for clients and protect you from scope creep. Build three tiers so most clients can find a fit, and make the middle one the one you want to sell.
| Example package | What is included | Example price (₦) |
|---|---|---|
| Event: Basic | 3 hours coverage, 60 edited images online | 120,000 |
| Event: Standard | 5 hours, 120 edited images, 20 prints | 200,000 |
| Wedding: Classic | Ceremony and reception, 300 edited images, online gallery | 450,000 |
| Wedding: Premium | Pre-wedding shoot, full day, two photographers, album | 650,000 |
Prices in the table are illustrations only. State clearly what each package includes, how many edited images, delivery time, and the price of extras such as extra hours, extra prints or rush delivery.
Headline inflation was 14.63% in September 2026 according to NBS figures reported by Voice of Nigeria, and software subscriptions billed in dollars move with the exchange rate. Recalculate your cost per shoot each year and before peak wedding season, and give returning clients notice of new prices before they book. Should you price in dollars for foreign clients? See dollars or naira.
Send package invoices with Pryme invoicing and take deposits through bank-transfer checkout free of charge. Financing the kit itself is covered in insuring and financing equipment, and payment options generally in how to get paid in Nigeria.
Work out your cost to deliver first: hours, assistant, transport, album and kit share. In this article’s example the cost is about ₦498,000, so a price below that loses money.
Divide what you need to earn each month by the working hours you can realistically sell. ₦800,000 over 100 hours gives ₦8,000 an hour in the example.
Yes. A booking deposit holds the date. Write down whether it is refundable if the client cancels.
