Paystack Setup

Paystack lets Nigerian businesses accept card, bank transfer and USSD payments. We open your account, take it through business verification and link your settlement account, so payments reach your business bank account.

Who it's for

• Registered Nigerian businesses that want to accept payments online
• Owners who started a Paystack application and got stuck at verification
• Businesses preparing to connect payments to a website or send payment links

What you get

• A Paystack account opened in your business's registered name
• Business verification completed using your CAC and tax documents
• Your settlement bank account linked
• A check that the account is ready to take payments
• A short handover note covering your dashboard, settlements and next steps

What we need from you

• Your CAC certificate
• Your Tax Identification Number (TIN)
• Business bank account details for settlements
• A valid ID for a director or the proprietor

How it works

1. We review your documents to confirm they match the details Paystack will check.
2. We open the account and submit your business for verification.
3. We respond to any follow-up requests from Paystack with you.
4. Once approved, we link your settlement account and hand over.

Why LaunchPad

• We check your documents before submission, which avoids common delays
• The details on your CAC certificate, TIN and bank account are matched up carefully
• If you are not yet registered, we can handle CAC and TIN registration first

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Paystack without CAC registration?

Paystack's full business verification requires a registered business. If you are not registered yet, add business name or company registration to your quote.

Who approves the account?

Paystack makes the final verification decision. We prepare and submit the application properly and handle any follow-up with you.

Can you connect Paystack to my website?

Yes. Payment gateway configuration covers connecting it to your site or app and testing it end to end.
