Your Bank Verification Number (BVN) is essential for seamless banking in Nigeria.
If you’re a UBA (United Bank for Africa) customer, you can easily retrieve your BVN using either the UBA Mobile App or USSD code — no need to visit a branch.
This guide will walk you step–by–step through both methods so you can quickly access your BVN anytime.
Why Knowing Your BVN Matters
Required for opening accounts, loans, and grants.
Helps prevent fraud and identity theft.
Links all your bank accounts in Nigeria.
Essential for resolving disputes and verifying your identity.
Option 1: How to Check BVN on UBA Mobile App
If you have the UBA Mobile App installed on your phone, follow these steps:
Step 1: Download or Open the UBA Mobile App
- For Android: Download on Google Play
- For iPhone: Download on App Store
Install and launch the app.
Step 2: Log Into Your UBA Account
- Enter your username and password or register if you’re a new user.
- Complete any security verification.
Step 3: Locate BVN Information
- Once logged in, go to Profile or Account Settings.
- Your 11–digit BVN should be displayed there.
- If you don’t see it, contact UBA customer care through the app chat or visit a branch.
Option 2: How to Check BVN Using UBA USSD Code
If you don’t have the app or want a faster method, you can use USSD.
USSD Code for BVN
Dial:
*565*0#
This is the general BVN code for all banks in Nigeria.
Works as long as the SIM you’re dialing from is linked to your UBA account.
Cost: Usually ₦20–₦30 per request.
If you get an error, ensure:
- The SIM card is the one registered with your UBA account.
- You have enough airtime to cover the service charge.
Tips for BVN Safety
Memorize or securely store your BVN.
Do NOT post it online or share it with strangers.
Use only official banking platforms (like UBA’s app or verified USSD codes).
If you suspect fraud, immediately contact UBA support: www.ubagroup.com
Whether you prefer mobile banking apps or simple USSD codes, checking your BVN with UBA is fast and easy. Use whichever method suits you best, and always keep your BVN safe from unauthorized access.
