Zap by Paystack

Zap is built by Paystack to do one thing well: make spending effortless, reliable and organized, every single time. Backed by the infrastructure powering thousands of Nigeria's most trusted businesses.
Here's what that looks like in practice.


NO BLOAT. JUST CLEAN, FAST PAYMENTS
• Zap is designed to be clutter-free. No unnecessary screens, no confusing menus, just a clean, super-fast payment experience that gets out of your way.


FINALLY KNOW WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES
• Zap automatically categorises your spending and surfaces insights about your financial habits. See patterns, track what matters, and stop guessing at the end of the month.


PAY LIKE A LOCAL WITH APPLE PAY
• Visiting Nigeria? Use Apple Pay to send money to any Nigerian bank account. No local bank account needed, no currency conversion hassle. Pay like a local from the moment you land.

PAY A WIDE RANGE OF BILLS
• With Zap, you can buy data and airtime, pay for electricity, renew DSTV, get Apple and PlayStore gift cards, and top up your XBOX, PS5, and mobile games without leaving the Zap app.

PAY THE SAME PEOPLE FASTER
• Zap remembers everyone you pay. Repeat any transfer in two taps without re-entering account numbers.

SCAN TO PAY
• Point your camera at any account number, whether on a payment decal, receipt, invoice, or phone screen, and Zap reads the digits and finds the bank for you. No more typing long numbers or second-guessing.

ALL YOUR BANKS, ONE APP
• Connect whichever banks you use and move money from them without switching apps.


PAY AT ANY PAYSTACK CHECKOUT
• Zap works natively at thousands of Paystack-powered businesses across Nigeria. Pay directly from Zap with just a few taps. It’s faster than any other payment method.

FAST, RELIABLE AND SECURE EVERY TIME
• Built on Paystack's infrastructure, every transfer is encrypted and protected. Your money moves securely, and when it lands, you'll know immediately.
