Best Nigerian Vendors Accepting Foreign Payment: How to Buy from Nigeria with USD, GBP or EUR
Get in touch on Whatsapp now:

Buying directly from Nigeria as an international customer can be challenging — especially when vendors don’t accept foreign payments or lack the infrastructure to handle international orders. Whether you’re in the UK, USA, Canada, or the EU, finding Nigerian vendors that accept foreign payment is essential for smooth transactions.

This article explores the best ways to buy Nigerian goods and pay in USD, GBP, or EUR, the risks of traditional remittances, and how Wigmore Trading simplifies cross-border purchases for diaspora Nigerians and global buyers.


The Problem: Most Nigerian Vendors Don’t Accept Foreign Payment

Despite the growth of Nigeria’s informal and formal markets, most vendors still:

  • Accept only Naira (₦) payments

  • Don’t have domiciliary accounts or international payment systems

  • Operate through WhatsApp or Instagram without secure checkout options

  • Lack proper documentation for overseas transactions

This creates challenges like:

Problem Risk/Impact
💷 Currency mismatch Buyer wants to pay in GBP or USD, but vendor demands naira
🕵️ No buyer protection Informal sellers offer no receipts or refund options
🔐 Fraud or scams Payment can be misrouted or misused
🚫 Limited logistics Vendor can’t handle international shipping or customs

The Solution: Work with Vendors That Accept Foreign Payment via Verified Channels

Some Nigerian vendors — especially those in exports, wholesale, and international trade — are now equipped to accept foreign payments using:

  • UK and US bank accounts

  • PayPal or Stripe integrations

  • Virtual USD/GBP account providers (e.g. Grey, Geegpay)

  • Licensed international partners (like Wigmore Trading)

These vendors are ideal for diaspora buyers, foreign importers, and Afrocentric businesses abroad.


Top Nigerian Vendor Categories Accepting Foreign Payment

🛒 1. Exporters of Agro & Food Products

Popular export items:

  • Dried hibiscus, ginger, turmeric, sesame seeds

  • Egusi, ogbono, crayfish, dried fish

  • Palm oil, garri, yam flour, fufu

✅ Many work with Wigmore Trading to accept GBP/USD payments and handle export logistics to the UK, US, or EU.


👗 2. Fashion & Fabric Vendors

  • Ankara prints, Aso Oke, lace, Adire

  • Tailored outfits for events and resale abroad

🛍️ 4. Wholesalers for Mini-Marts and Shops
