Wema Bank has announced a USSD option for verified beneficiaries of the Federal Government’s National Emergency Relief and Stabilisation Intervention (NERSI) to access their ₦50,000 relief payments through Wema Bank.

Eligible beneficiaries can use the service by dialling *945*23# on their mobile phones. The option is designed to make receiving relief payments more convenient and secure.

It is available only to people already verified as NERSI beneficiaries. It is not a general application code, and dialling it does not automatically qualify anyone for the ₦50,000 support.

Wema Bank says beneficiaries will not pay fees or charges to access their payments through the service.

The initiative provides relief to eligible households facing economic difficulties. Beneficiaries should use the official code and follow the instructions provided by the bank.

How to access payment

There is no public application through this code. Only verified NERSI beneficiaries should dial *945*23# to access their payment. Anyone not selected should await official communication and avoid paying anyone promising to secure the support.
