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.

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.

Flex Dollar takes naira or US transfers. Deposits to its US account number cost 0.3% within a $5 to $25 band; withdraw in naira or in dollars.
PiggyVest Flex Dollar can be funded from Flex Naira or a naira debit card (from $1), or by ACH or domestic wire to a dollar virtual account number, which carries a 0.3% deposit fee with a $5 minimum and $25 maximum per PiggyVest's FAQ (October 2026). You can withdraw to Flex Naira at PiggyVest's stated parallel market buy rate, or in dollars to a domiciliary account in your name.
Flex Dollar is PiggyVest's dollar wallet for saving, investing and transferring in US dollars. PiggyVest's FAQ says the money is placed in dollar fixed-term investments with asset managers regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in Eurobonds. That makes it an investment-backed savings product rather than a bank domiciliary account. The dollar virtual account numbers that let you receive US transfers are offered in partnership with Oval Technologies Ltd (Graph Finance), which PiggyVest describes as licensed by the Central Bank of Nigeria as an international money transfer operator.
| Method | How | Cost and timing (PiggyVest FAQ, Oct 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| From Flex Naira | Buy Flex Dollar, enter the dollar amount, choose Flex Naira | From $1; converted at the rate PiggyVest shows |
| Naira debit card | Buy Flex Dollar, choose your card | From $1; card is charged in naira |
| Dollar card | As above with a dollar card | Charged at your bank's exchange rate, because PiggyVest charges in naira |
| Virtual account number (VAN) | ACH or domestic wire from a US-dollar account | 0.3% fee, minimum $5, maximum $25; 1 to 3 working days |
The VAN is strictly for US dollar transfers, and each user may have one active VAN. Requesting it is free. To get one, open Flex Dollar in the app, choose Generate Flex Dollar Virtual Account Number, complete the KYC form and upload a valid ID (NIN, driver's licence or international passport) and a recent utility bill. The FAQ says approval should come within 24 working hours.
Example only. The 0.3% fee applies per deposit, with a floor of $5 and a ceiling of $25.
| Deposit to VAN | 0.3% of deposit | Fee charged | Credited |
|---|---|---|---|
| $500 | $1.50 | $5 (minimum) | $495 |
| $3,000 | $9.00 | $9 | $2,991 |
| $10,000 | $30.00 | $25 (maximum) | $9,975 |
The pattern is that small transfers are relatively expensive: PiggyVest's FAQ warns that any VAN deposit of $5 or less is used up entirely by the minimum fee. Between about $1,667 and $8,333 you pay the plain 0.3%, and above roughly $8,333 the $25 cap applies.
The FAQ gives two exits. You can withdraw in naira, which converts at what PiggyVest calls the stated parallel market buy rate and sends the naira to your Flex Naira wallet; the FAQ says there is no charge for withdrawing into naira. Or you can withdraw in dollars to a dollar-denominated domiciliary account; the page says any charges on that route are shown on the platform. Because the conversion rate moves daily, check the rate on the withdrawal screen before you confirm, and compare it with the rates covered in converting dollars to naira now or later.
A practical point for freelancers: a VAN is a way to receive US transfers into a savings product, but it is not the same as a full dollar account with its own statement for every payment. If clients pay you regularly, compare the options described in how freelancers in Nigeria receive dollars.
Interest on Flex Dollar accrues daily, is paid monthly and compounds monthly. PiggyVest says the rate is set by market conditions and shows it in the app, so it is not quoted here. If you want to fix a term, Safelock Dollar lets you lock dollars from Flex Dollar for 10 to 365 days, with a $2 minimum; interest is paid upfront to Flex Dollar and the principal returns there at maturity.
A Pryme account holds NGN, USD, GBP and EUR with local account details for each, and money stays in the currency it arrived in until you choose to convert with Swap, which shows the rate first and the fee on its own line. See multicurrency accounts.
From Flex Naira or a naira debit card (minimum $1), or by ACH or domestic wire to your Flex Dollar virtual account number, which takes 1 to 3 working days.
PiggyVest's FAQ, read in October 2026, says 0.3% per deposit to the virtual account number, minimum $5 and maximum $25.
Yes. Dollar withdrawals go to a domiciliary account in your name; any charges are shown in the app before you confirm.
PiggyVest says naira withdrawals use its stated parallel market buy rate, shown at the time. It changes daily, so check before confirming.
