Leading credit bureau and foremost financial data institution in Nigeria & Africa, CRC Credit Bureau, is redefining digital credit management with the launch of the CRC Mobile App, a smart, secure platform designed to give customers seamless access to their credit information and essential financial services, all in one place.
Building on this vision, CRC has officially launched its newly enhanced CRC Mobile App, reinforcing its commitment to digital innovation, improved customer experience, and expanded financial accessibility.
The upgraded application introduces new features designed to deliver enhanced security, including secure biometric login through facial recognition and fingerprint authentication, seamless transactions, and broader service offerings to individuals and businesses across Nigeria.
Originally introduced in 2019, the CRC Mobile App was designed to give individuals and businesses convenient access to credit reports and related credit information products. While the platform represented an important step in improving access to credit intelligence, its initial release was limited in scope and functionality.
The earlier version of the application primarily focused on providing credit products but featured basic security architecture, limited integrations, and minimal service offerings. Users also experienced challenges including separate login credentials between the website and mobile application, slower credit report delivery times, and an interface that did not fully meet modern user expectations.
Recognising the rapid evolution of Nigeria’s digital financial ecosystem and the growing demand for secure, integrated mobile services, CRC undertook a comprehensive redesign and modernisation of the platform, culminating in the launch of the new CRC Mobile App in 2026.
The redesigned application introduces a significantly improved user experience and expands beyond credit information services to provide a multi-service digital platform that integrates credit intelligence, payments, utilities, and professional development.
The new CRC Mobile App incorporates biometric login functionality, enabling users to securely access their accounts through fingerprint authentication and Face ID. This enhancement ensures faster login while maintaining strict data protection standards and strengthening overall platform security.
As part of the upgrade, CRC has introduced an integrated wallet system that allows users to top up their wallet balance for transactions within the app.
This functionality streamlines payments and reduces transaction friction. The wallet feature also includes a show and hide balance option, giving users greater privacy and control over their financial information when using the application in public or shared environments.
The upgraded app further expands its digital service offerings by enabling users to conveniently purchase utility services, including electricity payments, airtime, mobile data, and cable television subscriptions such as DSTv, GOtv, StarTimes, and Showmax.
This integration positions the CRC Mobile App as a multifunctional digital platform that supports everyday financial transactions in one secure ecosystem.
In alignment with CRC’s mission to promote financial literacy and professional development, the mobile application now allows users to register directly for CRC Financial Education Centre (CFEC) training courses. This addition simplifies access to educational programmes and reinforces CRC’s role in building financial capacity across the market.
Speaking on the launch, the MD/CEO of CRC Credit Bureau, Dr. ‘Tunde Popoola, stated that “the new mobile app reflects the organisation’s broader digital transformation strategy and its commitment to delivering innovative solutions that empower customers. The upgraded app is designed to place greater control in the hands of customers while maintaining the highest standards of security and operational excellence.”
He further noted that “CRC remains committed to investing in technology that enhances transparency, improves accessibility, and strengthens trust within Nigeria’s financial services ecosystem”. By integrating secure authentication, wallet functionality, bill payment services, and access to CRC Financial Education Centre training programmes into a single platform, CRC is redefining convenience and delivering a more seamless, comprehensive digital experience for its users.”
CRC Credit Bureau has consistently played a leading role in Nigeria’s credit reporting industry. The CRC brand is widely regarded as one of the most trusted and professionally managed credit bureaus in the Nigeria & Africa, serving as a benchmark within the financial services ecosystem.
This reputation is built on a strong commitment to world-class corporate governance, data integrity, regulatory compliance, service excellence, and continuous innovation.
