Considering a Binance P2P alternative? Here is what Monica.cash offers Nigerian users.
Binance P2P has had no naira market since February 2024; when it operated, costs came via vendor price spreads. Monica.cash charges 0% on conversion and 0% on bank withdrawal. On a ₦1,000,000 cashout, that's a meaningful difference.
Monica.cash payouts typically clear in under 60 seconds after on-chain confirmation. Binance P2P historically depended on vendor matching.
500,000+ active Nigerian users with ₦500B+ processed. The track record is independently verifiable through public coverage in Nairametrics and other Nigerian financial press.

Reasons vary by user; the common considerations are fees, payout speed and supported assets. Binance P2P historically priced naira trades through vendor-set spreads, while Monica.cash charges 0% with payouts typically under 60 seconds after confirmation.
Free in the sense of 0% transaction fees, yes. The app itself is free to download and use. Network fees on the underlying blockchain still apply (those go to miners, not Monica).
Yes. Withdraw from Binance P2P to your Monica deposit address (same network on both ends), and the conversion runs automatically once the deposit confirms.
Monica is a one-way off-ramp and does not custody user crypto. Monica's treasury, KYC data handling and operating standards are NDPA-aligned and SEC VASP-framework aligned. Binance P2P publishes its own security practices — compare both before moving size.
Monica.cash supports 7 coins (BTC, ETH, SOL, TRX, BNB, USDT, USDC). Binance P2P covers all majors on the exchange side. Compare both lists for your specific assets.
0% fees. Under 60s payouts. 500K+ users can't all be wrong.
