Opay is a well-known online financial service that enables you to save, transfer, withdraw, purchase airtime, and perform nearly all banking operations.
On Opay, there are different account types and levels, and each level has its own needs and limitations, just like in traditional/physical banking.
Therefore, you shouldn’t be shocked if you can only make a limited number of transactions after opening an Opay account. This is due to the fact that your account is currently limited and requires an upgrade to reach the level where you can perform more.
Because of this, we’ve provided you with instructions on how to upgrade your Opay account, which outline all the levels, their prerequisites, and how to upgrade quickly and easily to new levels.
Without further ado, let’s get going!
Opay account Tiers
Opay like most banks operate a three tier systm:
- Tier 1
- Tier 2
- Tier 3
