Step-by-Step Guide to Checking Your YEIDEP Bank Account Balance
Checking your YEIDEP account balance is quick and easy. Just follow these steps:
1. Identify Your Partner Bank
YEIDEP has partnered with several Nigerian banks. Your YEIDEP funds are held by the specific bank where your account was created.
If you’ve received your account number, you should already know your assigned bank.
2. Choose Your Preferred Method: Mobile App or USSD
Using a Mobile Banking App
This option is ideal if you have access to a smartphone.
- Download your partner bank’s official mobile app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
- Register/Login using your account number and registered phone number.
- Navigate to your account dashboard.
- Your current balance and transaction history will be visible on the main screen.
- Tip: Most apps allow fund transfers, airtime top-ups, and bill payments too!
Using a USSD Code
If you don’t have a smartphone or prefer something faster:
- Dial your bank’s USSD code using your registered phone number.
- Follow the prompts to select the “Check Balance” option.
- Enter your PIN or authentication code when prompted.
- Your account balance will be displayed on your screen instantly.
Final Tips
- Always use the registered phone number linked to your YEIDEP account.
- Make sure your mobile line has a small amount of airtime, as USSD codes may incur minimal charges.
- Keep your PIN or login credentials secure.
Stay informed and stay ready knowing your balance helps you track disbursements and manage your funds effectively!
