In a notice to its customers on Saturday, September 7, the online payment platform stated that the charges in line with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) regulations, will take effect from September 9, 2024.
“Dear valued customers, please be informed that starting September 9, 2024, a one-time fee of N50 will be applied for electronic transfer of N10,000 and above paid into your personal or business account in compliance with the Federal Inland Revenue Service regulations.
It is important to note that OPay does not benefit from these charges in any way as it is directed entirely to the Federal Government,” the notice reads.
