There are several easy ways to check your BVN (Bank Verification Number) online in Nigeria:
- USSD Code: Dial 565 0# from the phone number linked to your BVN. Your 11-digit BVN will be displayed on your screen. This method costs about ₦20 airtime and works without internet.
- NIBSS BVN Validation Portal: Visit the official NIBSS BVN validation website, enter your full name, phone number linked to the BVN, and date of birth, pay a small fee (around ₦20-₦25), and your BVN will show on screen.
- Bank Mobile App: Log into your bank’s official mobile app using your credentials. Your BVN is usually displayed in the "Profile," "Account Info," or "Personal Details" section.
- Bank Internet Banking Website: Log in to your bank’s internet banking platform, then navigate to your profile or account info to find your BVN.
- Bank Branch Visit: Visit the bank branch where you registered your BVN with a valid ID to get your BVN from customer service.
These methods allow convenient access to your BVN without needing physical forms or visits, with the USSD method being the quickest and most accessible without internet. Note that using the phone number linked to your BVN is necessary for most options.
