What is eNaira?
eNaira is the first Nigerian digital currency that uses blockchain technology. The digital currency is issued and controlled by the Central Bank of Nigeria. Furthermore, the eNaira digital currency has the same value as the fiat Naira.
With the coming of the eNaira digital currency, users are guaranteed simple, safe, and fast transfers and payments anytime and anywhere. Use the eNaira wallet to enjoy speed transactions.
Your eNaira wallet is a terrific way to make on-site purchases, transfer or send money, and keep track of your rewards programs. You can connect your e-wallet to your bank account or use the prepay option to pay as you go. Furthermore, because tokens are generated at random each time you make a payment, the inbuilt security token system renders your information unreadable to fraudsters.
