Kuda is swiftly spreading wider than anyone could think, proving wonderful features (which have been mentioned and explained below), especially the responsiveness of its customer service – has made many users keep tripping into this current best online banking, “Kuda”.
About Kuda
Currently (as of when this post was released, Kuda was known to operate gallantly in Nigeria, while making preparations to extend services in the United Kingdom, Ghana, and Uganda.
Kuda is the Online Banking platform allowing free transfers to other banks. That is no fee is charged for transferring from Kuda to other banks or Financial accounts of its like.
The free banking goes like this…
Each month, 25 free transfer chances are allocated to every Kuda account. But changes start after exhausting the free transfer allocation.
However, inspite of that, Kuda charges remain highly competitive in the Banking industry.
Types of Kuda accounts
Kuda provides TWO main types of accounts; the Individual account and the business account.

Kuda Individual account
The personal Kuda account gives so many reliable features already. Among all, giving 25 free transfer every month, enable you to send and receive money directly into your kuda account, buy airtime, pay bills (like electricity, paid tv, etc), and Pay online without a card, ATM and POST payments, including sales and purchases of Giftcard.

We wouldn’t forget to mention the Kuda’s Visa credit/debit card you get from your account. Kuda provides both virtual and physical cards you can also use on any ATM and POS machines.
How to access the Kuda Personal/Individual Account
Kuda has provided two options for accessing the account, through the official Kuda mobile App and the official website https://app.kuda.com. Unlike the Business Kuda, as of now, it is not shown the personal website and no app nighter.
