Need help with your OPay account? I know it can be confusing when something goes wrong with your money or app. Don’t worry – I’ll show you the easiest ways to get help from OPay’s friendly customer care team.
How To Chat With Opay Customer Care
To chat with Opay customer care, open the app and go to the “Help” or “Support” section. You’ll find an option to start a chat with a customer service agent. Once you click it, you can send your question or issue, and they will assist you.
What is OPay Customer Care?
Think of OPay customer care as your helpful friend who knows everything about OPay. They’re the people you talk to when:
- Your money isn’t showing up
- You can’t send money to someone
- Your card isn’t working
- The app is giving you trouble
- You have questions about your account
How to Get Help Through the OPay App
The fastest way to get help is right in your OPay app! Here’s how:
Using the Chat Feature
It’s just like sending a message to your friend:
- Open your OPay app
- Look for a button that says “Help” or “Support”
- Tap on “Chat with Us”
- Tell them what’s wrong
- Wait for their reply (usually takes about 5-10 minutes)
What to Tell Customer Care
Before you start chatting, think about:
- What were you trying to do?
- What went wrong?

For example, instead of saying “My money is gone,” try something like: “I tried sending 1000 Naira to my mom this morning, but the money left my account and she didn’t get it.”
