Summary

Vantar introduces NGN funding powered by Wyrr, enabling Nigerians in the diaspora to deposit and withdraw in Naira with faster settlements, transparent FX conversion, and low fees.

Naira funding is here, powered by Wyrr

This month, we turned on NGN deposits and withdrawals on Vantar, facilitated by our payments partner Wyrr. Nigerians in the diaspora can now fund their Vantar accounts in Naira, build their portfolios, and withdraw funds in Naira without the workarounds, guesswork, or waiting.

What's new

NGN funding on Vantar runs end-to-end on Wyrr's cross-border payments rails. That partnership is what makes the experience feel effortless:

  • Speed. Deposits and withdrawals move quickly through Wyrr, so your money is ready to work without a long wait. (Settlement times can vary by bank and corridor.)
  • Competitive exchange rates. Transparent Naira conversion, with no hidden mark-ups buried in the rate.
  • Low fees. Keep more of every Naira you move.

Built for the diaspora

This launch is for Nigerians in the diaspora. If you're living abroad and want to fund a Vantar account in Naira, you can now do so, connecting the currency you know to the markets you're building toward, whether that's your first trade or your thousandth.

Where we operate

Vantar only solicits and onboards clients in markets where we are duly licensed. We are currently going through the licensing process in Nigeria, and until that's complete, NGN funding is offered to diaspora Nigerians in the jurisdictions where Vantar is already authorized to operate. We'll share more as our Nigerian licensing progresses.

How to get started

If you're already on Vantar, head to your dashboard, select Add Funds, and choose the naira option (powered by Wyrr). Returning funds works the same way under Withdraw. New here? Sign up, complete verification, and you'll see Naira funding from day one, subject to your eligibility.

What's next

NGN rails are live, but we're not done. We're continuing to refine transfer speed with Wyrr, expand the bank coverage we support, and progress our Nigerian licensing so we can serve more of our community over time. Tell us what would make investing in Naira even easier. We're building this with you, not just for you.

The market doesn't wait. Now, neither do you.
