VULTe by Polaris

VULTe by Polaris is a digital bank designed and managed by Polaris Bank. In this post, we will walk you through how you can open an account on VULTe, how to get loans, settle bills and lots more.

What is VULTe and how does it work?

VULTe by Polaris, commonly known as Vulte is the official internet bank created by Polaris Bank. By using the mobile app, users can transfer money instantly to and from other banks in Nigeria.

VULTe by Polaris also allows customers to make cardless withdrawals and payments on ATMs if they forget their card at home.

All users of Polaris Bank can make use of VULTe. Non-users are also eligible to use, but they will have to open an account.

And that’s where digital banking comes in. Instead of going to a Polaris Bank branch to open an account, the whole process can be done on the internet.

Note: This doesn’t mean that a VULTe account can substitute for a usual Polaris bank account. However, all basic banking services and transactions can be done right from your mobile phone.

Benefits of using VULTe by Polaris

Since it’s fully digital, VULTe by Polaris provides many benefits to its users. Here are some of them.

1. Completely digital

Everything, starting from account creation to payment of bills and obtaining loans are done on the internet. This Fintech product by Polaris bank makes life easier for Nigerians.

2. Transfers

VULTe can help you to transfer money from your account to another bank account. Usually, people would walk to a POS outlet or take a bike to the bank.

With the VULTe banking app, you can execute any bank transaction from your home, workplace and anywhere you are.

3. Doorstep Debit Card Delivery
