Features and how it works
Verify once, unlock more as you go
Pursible uses three verification tiers. Each tier asks for a little more about you and unlocks more of the app. You can see your current tier, and exactly what the next one needs, in the app at any time.
Verification tiers
Tier 1

What you'll need
- Your name, date of birth, email and home address
- Your phone number, confirmed with a one-time code
- Your BVN or your NIN, verified electronically
- An automatic watchlist screening
What it unlocks

- NGN withdrawals to your bank account
- Stablecoin (USDC and USDT) deposits

Each tier has its own transaction and balance limits. The current limits for your tier are shown in the app before you transact, and may change as required by our partners or the law. Some checks may need a manual review, which can take longer.
How it works
Receive, convert, withdraw
Step 1: Receive
Share your NGN account number. Transfers from any Nigerian bank arrive in your Pursible naira balance.
Step 2: Convert
Pick an amount. We show the rate and the exact amount you will get, and hold that rate for a short time while you confirm.
Step 3: Withdraw
Send naira to a bank account in your own name. Every withdrawal needs your transaction PIN.
Fees
Any fee is shown in the app before you confirm a transaction, together with the exact amount you will receive. Nothing is charged without being shown to you first. See our Terms of Use.
