Earning in dollars has long been a dream for many Nigerians working online, but the hurdles of cross-border finance often turned it into a frustrating ordeal. From limited account options to hidden deductions, the gap between Nigerian workers and the U.S. market remained wide. Now, Boldswitch is stepping in to close that gap with a bold innovation.
The fintech has launched a U.S. bank account service built specifically for Nigerians, allowing professionals and businesses to receive payments, transact, and spend internationally without the traditional roadblocks.
What Sets It Apart
Instead of relying on intermediaries or navigating complicated setups abroad, users can now open a U.S. account through Boldswitch with minimal requirements. Funds arrive faster, exchange rates are transparent, and payments flow without unnecessary losses.
Beyond Banking: Digital Dollar Cards
Boldswitch also provides virtual dollar cards designed for seamless global spending. From paying for Netflix and Apple services to running ads on Meta and TikTok or shopping on Amazon, the cards ensure unrestricted access to international platforms—without inflated rates or regional restrictions.
A Launch That Favors Freelancers
To celebrate its debut, the company is offering a zero-fee package for freelancers receiving payments from U.S. clients. It’s a rare chance for creators, developers, and remote workers to keep the full value of their contracts.
The Bigger Picture
With competitive rates, secure transfers, and universal card usage, Boldswitch positions itself as more than just a bank—it’s a financial gateway for Nigerians eyeing global opportunities.
“Our vision is to break down the walls that have kept Nigerians from fully engaging with the international economy,” explained CEO Glad Akhison. “This launch signals the beginning of a future where our people transact without limits.”
By tying Nigerian talent to the world’s largest economy, Boldswitch is charting a new path for borderless finance.
