FG imposes levy on transactions above N10,000 on Opay, others

The Electronic Money Transfer Levy (EMTL) requires Fintech companies, such as Opay and Moniepoint, to deduct N50 from every inflow of N10,000 and above received by their customers.

This measure is in line with regulations set by the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).

The affected companies have notified their customers about the upcoming change, clarifying that the charges are mandated by the government and do not generate revenue for the payment platforms.

The levy applies to both personal and business accounts.
