Step by step

How to Convert Bitcoin to Naira — Step by Step

Selling Bitcoin for Naira takes four steps. The whole process typically takes under 20 minutes for first-time users and under 10 minutes for returning ones.

1

Create a free account on platov.co

Register with your email and phone number. No upfront fee. Basic identity verification is required to unlock NGN withdrawal: government-issued ID (NIN, voter’s card, international passport, or driver’s licence) and a selfie. Nigeria’s Investments and Securities Act (ISA 2025) requires BVN, NIN, and TIN on all licensed platforms.

2

Add your Nigerian bank account

Go to withdrawal settings and add your bank account number. The platform looks up your bank name via BVN lookup. Supported banks include GTBank, Access Bank, Zenith Bank, UBA, First Bank, Stanbic IBTC, Fidelity Bank, FCMB, Wema Bank, Opay, Kuda, and all other major Nigerian commercial banks.

3

Send your Bitcoin to the deposit address

Navigate to the deposit section, select BTC, and copy the wallet address. Send from any external wallet. Always double-check the address before confirming. Bitcoin requires 1–3 confirmations (10–30 minutes) before appearing as available balance.

BTC — 10–30 min USDT TRC-20 — 1–3 min ETH/ERC-20 — 5–15 min
4

Sell and receive naira

Once the deposit is credited, go to the sell screen, enter your BTC amount, confirm the quoted NGN rate, and submit the withdrawal to your saved bank account. Naira arrives in 5–15 minutes. You will receive SMS and email confirmation when the transfer is sent.

Supported cryptocurrencies

Supported Cryptocurrencies — Which Pays Best?

All six supported coins can be converted to Naira on platov.co. USDT is the first choice for most Nigerian sellers.

USDT (Tether)

Stable price — no loss between sending and receiving. Best on TRC-20 (Tron): confirms in 1–3 minutes, network fee under $1. Highest liquidity on Nigerian platforms.

Bitcoin (BTC)

Widely accepted globally. Confirmation takes 10–30 minutes, introducing price risk. Network fees vary ($1–$30). Best for large amounts where speed is secondary.

Ethereum (ETH)

Confirms in 5–15 minutes. ERC-20 fees range from $2–$20. Consider USDT on TRC-20 as a cheaper alternative for conversion-only use cases.

LTC · DOGE · BCH

Fast confirmation and low fees. Fewer platforms support them in Nigeria, so check availability before sending.

Network selection for USDT

USDT exists on multiple blockchains. Choosing the wrong network can result in permanent loss of funds.

NetworkConfirmationTypical feeAvailability
TRC-20 (Tron) 1–3 min < $1 Most platforms
ERC-20 (Ethereum)5–15 min $2–$20Most platforms
BEP-20 (BSC) 3–5 min < $0.50 Some platforms
Solana (SPL) 1–2 min < $0.01 Few platforms

Fee anatomy

Understanding Fees and Exchange Rates

Platforms earn money two ways: an explicit trading fee and an implicit spread. Even a “0% fee” platform may embed a margin. Compare the quoted NGN against the live mid-market rate in the calculator above before confirming.

Fee comparison: selling 0.1 BTC at live rate

0% fee (Platov.co):  0.1 × ₦110,000,000 = ₦11,000,000
1% fee platform:    0.1 × ₦110,000,000 − 1% = ₦10,890,000  (lost: ₦110,000)
2% fee platform:    0.1 × ₦110,000,000 − 2% = ₦10,780,000  (lost: ₦220,000)

Scam prevention

How to Sell Bitcoin Safely — Avoiding Scams

Crypto-related fraud is common in Nigeria. The following mistakes cost traders money every week.

Using informal P2P trades

Trades via WhatsApp or Telegram have no escrow protection. A buyer can reverse a bank transfer after receiving Bitcoin. Use only platforms with built-in escrow like platov.co.

Not verifying the website URL

Scam sites clone real exchanges with near-identical URLs. Bookmark platov.co and access it only from bookmarks — never from a link in a message.

Sharing seed phrases or passwords

No legitimate platform agent will ever ask for your seed phrase, private key, or password. Anyone asking is a scammer. Disconnect immediately.

Sending to the wrong network

Sending USDT on ERC-20 to a TRC-20 address results in permanent loss of funds. Always confirm the network before sending. Copy-paste the address.

Best practice: enable 2FA before depositing. Set up two-factor authentication before sending any funds.

Regulatory status · 2026

Limits and Regulatory Status (2026)
