CRC Credit Bureau upgrades mobile app with biometric security and digital wallet

CRC Credit Bureau, a leading credit bureau in Nigeria and Africa, has officially launched an upgraded version of its CRC Mobile App.

The new app, designed to meet the growing needs of consumers and businesses, combines enhanced security features with improved functionality for a seamless digital experience.

This was disclosed during a media briefing held yesterday, March 7, 2026

The upgraded app aims to empower users with easier access to credit information, payments, utilities, and professional development tools, marking another milestone in CRC's commitment to fostering financial inclusion and innovation.

Dr. Tunde Popoola, MD/CEO of CRC Credit Bureau, addressing the media at the press conference said the app, originally introduced two years ago, has now been significantly upgraded to meet evolving market needs.

According to him, the enhanced application is a 'reformed tool' with advanced capabilities tailored to support lenders on the four pillars of lending; credit assessment, risk analysis, monitoring, and decision support, while also offering consumers improved access to their credit information.

A core focus of the upgrade is reinforced data security, with the app incorporating biometric login including fingerprint and facial recognition to secure sensitive financial data.

The platform also introduces a digital wallet, enabling users to conduct payments and bill settlements directly within the app, making it both a credit information and financial utility tool.

Beyond credit access, the app now allows users to register for CRC training schools, reflecting the bureau's commitment to enhancing financial literacy and capacity building among individuals and professionals.
