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.
The short answer
Remitly's Ireland limits page (checked October 2026) says you can transfer up to EUR 85,000 in a single transaction. Your personal limit may be lower, depending on your verification level, payment method, destination and transfer history, and the page does not publish named tiers. To raise it, Remitly may ask for ID, proof of address, and information on your occupation, source of income and reason for sending; your current limit is shown before you confirm.
The headline figure
Remitly's "increase your limits" page for Ireland says: "Transfer up to 85,000 EUR in a single transaction." It labels this as new and gives no effective date. That is a ceiling, not what every customer can send on day one.
Why your limit may be lower
The same page says your personal limit depends on:
- your account verification level;
- your payment method;
- the destination country;
- your transfer history.
Remitly's Nigeria page for Ireland adds that limits also vary by sending location, delivery method and destination, are subject to banking partner limits and compliance requirements, and that additional documents may be requested. The limits page notes that limits may change with exchange rate movements.
No published tiers
Neither Ireland page we checked lists named levels or amounts per 24 hours, 30 days or 180 days. Remitly's UK pricing page says it limits sending over 24 hours, 30 days and 180 days, but that is a different entity and country; do not assume the same windows or amounts apply in Ireland. The only reliable number for you is the one the app shows before you confirm.
What Remitly may ask for
| Information or document | Typical purpose |
|---|---|
| Name, date of birth, address | Basic identity check |
| Passport or other government-issued ID | Identity verification |
| Utility bill or similar | Proof of address |
| Occupation, source of income, reason for sending | Understanding the transfer |
| Bank statements or payslips | Evidence of where the money comes from |
These are the items Remitly's limits page lists. Irish residents with a non-EU passport should have their Irish Residence Permit details to hand, as well; see IRP cards and ID checks on transfer apps and Remitly first-transfer ID checks.
Recipient-side limits
Remitly's limits page also says some receiving countries and delivery methods cap how much a recipient can receive, per transfer or over a period, and that this can be lower than your sending limit. You see it during set-up. For Nigeria, a mobile wallet may have a lower cap than a bank deposit; if a large amount is blocked, try a bank account in the recipient's name.
Sending a large amount
- Check your current limit in the app before you plan.
- Prepare evidence of the source of funds, such as a payslip, a sale contract or a savings statement.
- Use bank deposit to a Nigerian account in the recipient's own name.
- Expect extra review for a large first transfer; send early if there is a deadline.
- Keep records of what you sent and why.
Bigger sums raise other questions too; see sending €20,000 from Ireland and is there a limit on sending money from Ireland to Nigeria.
Where Pryme fits
For regular or larger amounts you may prefer to hold euro and convert when you choose. A Pryme account holds euro and naira; Send pays Nigerian accounts, and the app shows the rate and the fee before you approve.
