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.

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.

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.

State housing, LSETF loans, real estate registration and more ask for a LASRRA number. The services that require it as at October 2026, with sources.
The LASRRA card is the Lagos State residents' identity card, and its number is asked for by state services and programmes: as at October 2026, Lagos HOMS' Rent to Own scheme lists a LASRRA card among its eligibility criteria, LSETF loans require a LASRRA ID, and the 2022 LASRERA Law requires real estate practitioners to hold a LASRRA number. Sterling Bank, LASRRA's card partner, says the card is also meant for access to state services in social welfare, education, health, housing and transport.
The Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LASRRA) was set up by a law signed on 27 June 2011, according to its own site, to build a register of people living in Lagos for planning: where to put schools, health facilities, motor parks, markets and refuse services. Registered residents get a LASRRA number and a card. Sterling Bank, which partners with LASRRA, describes the card as a smart card that works as both an identity card and a payment card, with a unique number used in identity-linked dealings with Lagos government bodies.
It is a state identity, not a federal one. Banks, telcos and federal agencies rely on your NIN and BVN; some Lagos State programmes ask for the LASRRA number on top. The question most residents have is which of those programmes actually ask for it.
This table lists the cases we could confirm from a primary page or a published summary of the law, as at October 2026:
| Service | What it asks for | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Lagos HOMS Rent to Own (state housing) | Applicants should be primarily resident in Lagos and have a LASRRA card | Lagos HOMS eligibility page |
| LSETF MSME loans | LASRRA ID, alongside LIRS tax ID, government ID and BVN | LSETF MSME Loan Programme page |
| LSETF loan guarantors | Guarantors must be Lagos residents with a LASRRA ID or PVC | LSETF application FAQs |
| LASRERA registration (real estate agents, developers) | Individuals need a LASRRA number; a company needs at least one director who meets that requirement | LASRERA Law 2022, s.26, per Famsville Solicitors |
Lagos HOMS' Rent to Own scheme, which lets qualifying buyers pay for a state home over time, lists the LASRRA card among its eligibility criteria together with being primarily resident in Lagos, being tax compliant and being a first-time buyer. If you plan to apply, register with LASRRA before the application window, not after.
The Lagos State Employment Trust Fund (LSETF) lists a LASRRA ID among its requirements for MSME loans, with a Lagos tax ID from LIRS, a government ID, BVN, photographs and bank statements. Its FAQs add that guarantors must be resident in Lagos with a LASRRA ID or PVC. A business owner with every other document in place can still be held up by a missing LASRRA number.
Under the Lagos State Real Estate Regulatory Authority Law 2022, an individual must hold a LASRRA number to register as a real estate practitioner. See LASRERA registration for real estate agents.
Sterling's LASRRA page says the card gives access to state services in social welfare, education, financial inclusion, housing, health and government-backed transportation. That is a statement of purpose. We did not find, as at October 2026, an official page from a Lagos school board, the state health insurance scheme or a transport agency stating that a LASRRA number is compulsory for its service, so we do not list one as a firm requirement.
Forms for some state services may still ask for it. If you are enrolling a child, registering for state health insurance or applying for a state scheme, ask the office whether a LASRRA number is required, and register early if it is. For state health insurance, see how to register for Ilera Eko.
You can pre-register online or walk in to a LASRRA office, complete biometric capture, take a temporary card and collect the permanent card when notified. Our guides on getting the LAG ID card and checking status and updating details cover the steps.
Programme requirements change, so check the programme's own page when you apply rather than relying on any list, including this one. If a page you are reading asks for LASRRA and you are not yet registered, allow time for capture and the temporary card before the deadline.
Programmes like LSETF loans ask for bank statements as well as a LASRRA ID. Pryme customers can generate a regular or a verifiable statement through Pryme's partnership with VerifyDoc.ai, which anyone receiving it can check is genuine and unaltered; see receipts and statements.
It is not a general legal requirement for every resident, but specific programmes require it, including Lagos HOMS Rent to Own, LSETF loans and LASRERA registration for real estate practitioners.
Yes. The Lagos HOMS Rent to Own eligibility page lists a LASRRA card and being primarily resident in Lagos.
Yes. LSETF's MSME Loan Programme page lists a LASRRA ID among the requirements, and its FAQs say guarantors need a LASRRA ID or PVC.
No. LASRRA is a Lagos State residents' register; the NIN is the federal identity number issued by NIMC.
