Vban For Remote Workers—Multi-currency Wallets & Virtual Banking
This virtual banking platform helps you get paid in USD, GBP, or EUR without bank delays or hidden fees.
Vban (short for Virtual Bank Account Number), is a fintech app designed to help Africa’s digital workforce—freelancers, remote workers, creatives, digital nomads, and entrepreneurs—seamlessly manage international payments and cross-border transactions.
Vban provides multi-currency wallets and virtual cards to help you receive, swap, and spend money across currencies without bank delays or high fees.
Who is it for?
Vban is built for the modern African professional working across borders, including:
Freelancers and remote workers across Africa
Digital nomads and entrepreneurs who earn in foreign currencies
Tech professionals and developers working with global clients
Digital creatives (designers, video editors, writers, etc.)
What problem does it solve (and why is it better than the status quo and alternatives)?
Vban solves the core problem many African remote workers and freelancers face: delayed, expensive, and unreliable access to international payments.
Traditional banks are not built for global income earners—they're slow to process foreign transfers, charge high fees, and offer poor user experiences for managing cross-border transactions. Setting up domiciliary accounts can be time-consuming, and converting FX often involves manual steps, high minimums, or unfavorable rates.
Compared to digital alternatives like Grey, Payday, and Chipper Cash, Vban stands out with better FX conversion rates. Vban's FX swap is competitively priced, and that means you get more value for every dollar, pound, or euro you convert.
For example, when comparing Vban to Grey: you get ₦21k more on $1k, ₦14k more on £1k, and ₦22k more on €1k.
That’s more money in your pocket for the same effort.
