What it costs

One flat fee per payment. Nothing else.

No setup fee, no monthly fee, no hardware to buy, no minimum volume. The fee is a flat naira amount per transaction — it never scales with the size of the payment, and it's capped at ₦50 no matter how large the amount. Withdrawals to any Nigerian bank carry a flat ₦10 ThynkPay fee (waived under ₦1,000) plus the bank network's own transfer charge and 7.5% VAT on that charge; adding money to your wallet is always free.

How fast does the money arrive?

Do I need a POS machine?

No. Just a phone that can display a printed QR code (or photos of it for your customers). No special hardware required.

What about my BVN?

Your BVN is sent once to Providus Bank for NIBSS verification. We never store your BVN on our own servers. Read the full details in our Privacy Policy.
