    We are currently experiencing a downtime with inward and outward transfers due to a downtime with our processing partner in Nigeria. As a result, you may notice: 1. Delays in transfers to Paystack Titan and Wema-managed accounts via both Pay with Transfer (PwT) and Dedicated Virtual Accounts (DVA). 2. Delays in processing outward transfers to **all bank accounts**. Our team is actively working with our processing partner to resolve this issue and will provide updates as soon as service is fully restored.
