Ten years, one trunk

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.

2016E-commerce

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.

2018OjirehPrime Card

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.

2020Microfinance bank

PrymeSolid Allianze acquired — an existing bank with an existing licence. The perimeter stopped being someone else’s to draw.

2023Multicurrency

More than one currency on one balance, and the rebrand to Pryme. A Nigerian business could hold dollars without holding a second institution.

2026Agentic operations

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.

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.

Setting up a monthly transfer to family in Nigeria

What the main remittance apps offer for repeat transfers to Nigeria, what they do not, and a worked monthly plan that survives naira swings.

PE
Pryme editorialJapa & diaspora desk · 19 Oct 2026 · 4 min read
The short answer

Most remittance apps make a monthly transfer easy to repeat rather than fully automatic: Sendwave's App Store listing mentions managing repeat transfers, while the Remitly, NALA and Revolut pages we checked do not describe scheduled sends. A dependable set-up is a fixed date after payday, a saved recipient with the right bank details, a CBN-licensed operator, and a naira budget agreed with the family.

Recurring, repeat or standing order: know which you have

Families use "monthly transfer" to mean three different things, and the difference decides how much you have to remember:

Scheduled transfer
The app sends on a set date without you opening it. Few remittance pages we checked describe this for Nigeria.
Repeat transfer
The app keeps the recipient and amount so you can resend in a few taps. You still start it each month.
Standing order
Your own bank abroad sends a fixed amount on a date. It usually goes as an international bank payment, not through a remittance app, so ask your bank how it pays to Nigeria and what it charges.

What the apps say about repeat sends

ProviderWhat its page says (Oct 2026)Planning point
SendwaveApp Store listing: users can "manage repeat transfers"; Nigeria is a receive countryRepeat, not clearly scheduled
RemitlyUS pricing page: no mention of scheduled sends; limits apply over 24 hours, 30 days and 180 daysCheck your 30-day limit if you also send extra
NALASend-money page: no mention of recurring transfersUse saved recipients
RevolutIreland page: NGN bank transfers take 3 to 5 business days; 1% fee on currency exchange at weekendsSend on a weekday, early enough to land on time
LemFiSupport centre topics cover wallets and funding limits; no recurring feature on the pages we readCheck in the app

Features change, so open the app before you plan around one. Whatever you use, make sure the operator, or the partner paying out in Nigeria, is on the CBN list of licensed IMTOs.

The payout rules your plan has to fit

  • Since 1 May 2026 licensed IMTOs pay retail remittances in naira, at rates benchmarked to market prices (Techeconomy, 28 March 2026). A monthly transfer through an app arrives as naira even into a domiciliary account.
  • Larger payouts go into a bank account rather than cash, so a bank or wallet account in the recipient's own name is the reliable target.
  • When your family moves the money on, the ₦50 stamp duty applies to electronic transfers of ₦10,000 or more from 1 January 2026, deducted from the sender (Techeconomy, 1 January 2026).

A worked monthly plan

Example only. A daughter in Manchester supports her parents in Ibadan. They agree a naira budget rather than a pound figure, because the parents spend naira:

ItemMonthly amount (example)
Food and household₦150,000
Rent saving₦100,000
Younger brother's school costs₦80,000
Electricity, data and TV₦40,000
Buffer for emergencies₦30,000
Total₦400,000

Each month she checks how many pounds buy ₦400,000 in the app, then sends that amount. If the naira weakens, she sends fewer pounds; if it strengthens, more. The parents' budget stays fixed.

The alternative is a fixed pound amount, which keeps her own budget fixed and lets the naira amount move. Pick one rule and tell the family which it is, so a smaller month does not look like a cut.

Onward costs: if her father makes eight transfers of ₦10,000 or more from the account during the month, stamp duty takes 8 × ₦50 = ₦400. Small, but worth leaving in the buffer.

Steps to set it up

  1. Agree the budget and the rule (fixed naira or fixed sending amount).
  2. Choose one licensed operator and save the recipient with the exact name on the bank account.
  3. Pick a sending date two or three working days after your payday, and before rent or school deadlines in Nigeria.
  4. Set a calendar reminder or use the app's repeat feature.
  5. Keep each receipt; they settle questions about what was sent and when.
  6. Review the rate and fee every few months against one other provider.

What usually goes wrong

  • The first month looks better than the rest. Remitly's US page shows a welcome rate that applies only to the first 500 US dollars sent. Budget on the normal rate, not the promotion.
  • Name mismatch. A transfer to an account whose name does not match the recipient you saved can be delayed or returned. Copy the name exactly as the bank shows it.
  • Extra sends hit a limit. If you add a one-off for a wedding or hospital bill in the same month, a rolling 30-day limit can block the regular transfer. Remitly says limits can be raised on request; ask before the month you need it.
  • Weekend and holiday timing. A transfer started on a Friday night can land after a Monday deadline, and some providers price weekend exchanges differently.
  • No one checks the receipt. Agree that the recipient confirms arrival each month, so a missing payment is chased in days rather than weeks.

If a payment does go missing, our guide on money sent to Nigeria but not received has the steps.

For the full cost picture see sending money to Nigeria: the real cost, and for timing questions, whether the day you send changes the rate.

Where Pryme fits

On the receiving side, a Pryme Personal Account can run a Personal Assistant that reminds the family when bills fall due and prepares electricity or school payments; nothing moves until the account holder approves. Our guide to sending money to family with an assistant shows how that works.

Questions people ask

Can I set up an automatic monthly transfer to Nigeria from the UK?

Some apps let you repeat a saved transfer; few pages we checked describe a fully scheduled send to Nigeria. A standing order from your UK bank is another route; ask the bank how it pays to Nigeria.

Will my monthly transfer arrive in dollars if I send to a dom account?

Not through a licensed IMTO since 1 May 2026. Retail remittances are paid in naira.

What is the best day of the month to send money home?

A weekday soon after payday, early enough for bank processing. Revolut, for example, charges 1% on weekend exchanges.

How much should I send my parents in Nigeria every month?

Build it from their naira costs, food, rent, school, bills and a buffer, then convert at the day's rate.
