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

  1. From the home screen, tap Send, then choose Bank account.
  2. Select the recipient's bank from the list.
  3. Enter the 10-digit account number. Boldswitch resolves and shows the account name automatically.
  4. Confirm the name matches the person you want to pay.
  5. Enter the amount and an optional note, then review the fee.
  6. 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.
