Introducing the new Bankly Virtual Account Creation! You can now select Bankly from the dropdown list alongside Providus and Wema. All Bankly accounts will start with the 511 prefix, though they can’t be customized like Wema accounts. This addition offers more flexibility for managing your finances.
- Wallet as a Debit Option:

We’ve added Wallet as a debit option for future Goal Contributions, giving you even more flexibility in how you save. Now, you can manage your contributions more efficiently and according to your preferences.
- TC Liquidation Terms Agreement:
We’ve added a checkbox for you to agree to the TC Liquidation Terms. This specifies the minimum date a liquidation request can be made once a contribution is created. Additionally, you’ll need to accept the detailed Target Contribution terms and conditions before creating a contribution, ensuring complete transparency.
- Improved Notification Management:

Managing notifications is now a breeze with a new button that marks all notifications as read. This feature helps you stay organized and on top of important updates.
- Inclusivity and Respect:
To maintain a respectful and inclusive platform, we’ve added Gender to the restricted list on customer profiles. Your gender will be updated based on the information from your BVN or NIN, with NIN taking precedence.
- Choose Your Preferred Communication Channel:
For those who prefer specific communication channels, you can now choose where you’d like to receive your OTPs – WhatsApp or SMS. You have the power to pick what works best for you!
