Can I use Enta alongside my existing bank?

Most people do rather than switching — here's what each one is genuinely better at.

Yes, and most people do rather than switching entirely. The two are good at different things.

What Enta is good at

  • Holding value in dollars or gold instead of a currency that's losing ground.

  • Moving money across borders in seconds rather than days, without a chain of intermediaries.

  • Getting paid from abroad — a payment link lets someone in another country pay you without an Enta account or any crypto knowledge.

  • Seeing everything in one place, with statements you can export as PDF or CSV.

What your bank stays good at

  • Local payments, salary, direct debits and cards.

  • Anything that needs a familiar, heavily regulated institution on the other end.

  • Being accepted without explanation.

How they work together

Fund Enta from your bank when you want to hold or send value. Cash out from Enta to your bank when you need local currency in hand. Bank payouts land in NGN, EUR or GBP.

The honest caveats

Getting from USD₮ in Enta to cash in a bank account still requires an off-ramp step — it isn't instant end to end. And the person on the receiving side needs to be comfortable holding or converting stablecoins, which not everyone is yet.
