Send to a Nigerian bank account
Transfer money to any Nigerian bank account in a few taps.
Last updated June 1, 2026
Send money to any Nigerian bank account, even if the recipient does not use Boldswitch.
How to send
- From the home screen, tap Send, then choose Bank account.
- Select the recipient's bank from the list.
- Enter the 10-digit account number. Boldswitch resolves and shows the account name automatically.
- Confirm the name matches the person you want to pay.
- Enter the amount and an optional note, then review the fee.
- Authorize with your transaction PIN or biometrics to send.
Fees
Transfer fees are tier-based. External bank transfers cost a little more than transfers to other Boldswitch users.
Tip: Always check the resolved account name before you confirm. Once a transfer is sent to the correct details, it usually cannot be reversed.
You can save the recipient for next time. See Manage saved beneficiaries. If a transfer does not arrive, read If a transfer fails or is delayed.
