It was important for us to take advantage of the slight ease in sourcing foreign exchange to do this in order meet with the yearnings of our teeming customers” said Nnamdi Okonkwo, Fidelity Bank CEO.

Specifically, the Bank in a message to customers at the weekend, said that international transactions on Fidelity Visa Naira Credit and Debit Cards will be subject to the following limits: “ Visa Naira Debit Cards (POS/Web only) equivalent of $1000 only; Visa Naira Credit Cards (ATM/POS/Web) equivalent of $1,000 only”.
