Moniepoint MFB Enables USSD Access for FG’s ₦50,000 Relief Fund ​Moniepoint Microfinance Bank has launched a USSD feature allowing customers to check their eligibility for the Federal Government’s ₦50,000 National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI) and receive their payouts directly. ​Spearheaded by the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, the NERSI scheme offers direct financial aid to vulnerable Nigerian households to help ease current economic hardship. ​As an official payment partner for the program, Moniepoint is using its digital infrastructure to ensure smooth disbursement. Account holders can check if they qualify by dialing *5573*27# from their registered mobile numbers. Eligible customers will be prompted on-screen to accept the ₦50,000 payment, which will be credited to their Moniepoint account free of charge.
