Open Monica, go to Bank Accounts, choose Union Bank, enter your account number. Auto-verified in seconds.
From your external wallet, send BTC to your permanent Monica deposit address. Use the network shown beside the address.
Once onchain confirmation lands, naira credits to your Monica balance at the live mid-market rate. 0% fee.
Tap Withdraw, choose your saved Union Bank account, type the amount. NIBSS clears in 45–120 seconds.
Monica auto-verifies the account name when you add a Union Bank account. If the name doesn't match, the system blocks the save preventing payouts to wrong accounts before they happen.
If a NIBSS transfer takes longer than 45–120 seconds, the funds are guaranteed by the rail itself. Worst case: the amount reverses to your Monica balance within 24 hours and you can re-attempt.
If Union Bank restricts your account independently (PND, BVN issue, AML flag), the payout reverses cleanly to your Monica balance. You then withdraw to a different bank.
Failed bank transfers are reversed to your Monica balance automatically. No support tickets needed for the standard failure modes.
