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.

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.

How to repay or liquidate Stanbic IBTC EZ Cash with *909*44#, what early payment saves, and where to take a complaint if things go wrong.
Stanbic IBTC says you can liquidate an EZ Cash loan through its website or by USSD: dial *909*44# from your registered number and follow the prompt to repay (loans FAQ, October 2026). The FAQ does not publish tenor, charges or late-payment rules, so your offer terms decide those; complaints go to Stanbic first, then the CBN or FCCPC.
EZ Cash is Stanbic IBTC Bank's short-term digital loan for its account holders. Stanbic's loans FAQ, read in October 2026, is brief but clear on two points. First, you can reach EZ Cash through four channels: "website, USSD, Internet Banking or Mobile App". On internet or mobile banking you tap or click your EZ Cash limit; on USSD you dial *909*44# to check eligibility. Second, on repayment it says: "You can liquidate your EZ Cash loan via the website or USSD", and for USSD, "Dial *909*44# and follow the prompt to repay."
Everything else, including the tenor, the fee or interest, and what happens on the due date if you have not paid, is not stated on that FAQ page. Those terms are on the offer you accepted. If you have deleted the SMS or cannot find the screen, ask Stanbic IBTC to send you the loan terms before you do anything else.
The FAQ names the website as a liquidation route. Inside internet banking or the app, the loan sits behind your EZ Cash limit. Log in, open the EZ Cash section and look for the outstanding balance and a repay option. If the option is missing, the FAQ's USSD route is the one Stanbic documents, so use that.
Whether early repayment saves money depends on how the charge is structured, and Stanbic's FAQ does not say. Here are two illustrative cases. Neither shows EZ Cash's actual terms.
| Example | Borrowed | Charge structure | Repaid after 10 of 30 days | Total paid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A: one-off fee | ₦100,000 | ₦5,000 fixed fee at drawdown | Full ₦100,000 + ₦5,000 | ₦105,000 |
| B: daily interest | ₦100,000 | 0.15% a day on the balance | ₦100,000 + ₦1,500 (0.15% × 10 days) | ₦101,500 |
In example B, holding the loan the full 30 days would have cost ₦4,500 in interest (0.15% × 30 × ₦100,000), so early payment saves ₦3,000. In example A, paying early saves nothing. Your own offer shows which structure applies. For more on comparing quoted rates, see APR versus flat fee.
The FAQ does not describe what Stanbic does after a missed due date. Because EZ Cash is tied to your Stanbic IBTC account, expect the bank to recover the amount from that account when money arrives, as your loan terms allow. Check those terms for any late charge. Repayment history on a bank loan is normally reported to credit bureaus, so a late payment can follow you to other lenders; our guide to credit bureaus in Nigeria explains how. If you know you will miss the date, contact the bank before it, not after.
The loans FAQ we read lists no phone number or email for EZ Cash. Use the contact details inside the Stanbic IBTC mobile app or on Stanbic IBTC's own website, and avoid numbers shared on social media. When you complain, give:
Ask for a complaint reference. If the bank does not resolve it, you can escalate to the Central Bank of Nigeria, which supervises banks; our guide on complaining about a bank covers that route. For unfair consumer treatment, such as misleading terms or abusive recovery calls, the FCCPC takes complaints through complaints.fccpc.gov.ng, contact@fccpc.gov.ng, 0805 600 2020, 0805 600 3030 or toll-free 0800 000 2121, as listed on its homepage in October 2026.
Pryme is a technology company, not a lender. If you shop with merchants in its Spaces network in Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt, Loans on Spaces are lent by Solid Allianze Microfinance Bank. Any limit is offered based on how your account is run, and you accept the full terms before anything is drawn. See Loans on Spaces and how to get EZ Cash to compare.
Stanbic IBTC's loans FAQ says you can liquidate EZ Cash via the website or USSD: dial *909*44# from your registered number and follow the prompt to repay (October 2026).
Yes, liquidation means paying it off in full, which the FAQ says you can do by website or USSD. Whether it reduces the charge depends on your offer's terms.
Stanbic's FAQ does not say. Read your loan terms for late charges, and expect recovery from your linked account and reporting to credit bureaus.
The loans FAQ we read lists none. Use the contact details in the Stanbic IBTC app or on the bank's own website.
