Validate a Nigerian bank account number and retrieve the account holder’s name. This is useful for confirming beneficiary details before initiating a payout.

Nigerian accounts only. This confirms an account holder’s name through Nigeria’s NIP name enquiry, which is why it takes a bankCode. There is no equivalent for USD, GBP or EUR — those rails do not allow a name to be confirmed against an account number before a payment is sent, so no provider can offer it.USD support is coming: it will take a routingNumber and return the bank, so you do not have to supply the bank name and address by hand. It will not return an account holder’s name, because that cannot be verified on US rails.

Example Request

curl -X POST "https://api.rolla.xyz/api/v1/external/lookup" \
  -H "X-API-Key: your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "bankCode": "000014",
    "accountNumber": "0123456789"
  }'

Example Response

{
  "status": 200,
  "success": true,
  "message": "Account details retrieved successfully",
  "data": {
    "accountNumber": "0123456789",
    "accountName": "JOHN DOE",
    "bankCode": "000014",
    "bankName": "Access Bank"
  }
}

Always verify the account name with your user before initiating a payout. Incorrect details may result in failed or misdirected payments.
