Must I provide my BVN to open an ALAT account?

We sincerely understand how you feel about your BVN and we hope we can just go ahead to open an account without BVN but a question you must ask is what is BVN and why is it so important?

It is actually very important to protect your new account and more importantly, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) regulations require you to have a BVN to own a fully functional account.

One of the many reasons why we need your BVN is to automatically retrieve your personal information so you won’t need to fill out a lengthy form when signing up.
