It also works on the web as well as in the app, and lists buying and swapping crypto. Its website says it has 50,000+ active users and states an average payout of under 9 seconds. Its Google Play listing was updated on 19 August 2026.

What to check before you use Coinstick

None of this makes Coinstick a bad choice. It means the right app depends on what you are selling and how you want to be paid. Whichever app you use, send a small amount first and check that the naira lands.

How Yesa is different

The exact naira amount comes first

You see the naira figure before you confirm a crypto sale, and the sale settles at that figure. For a gift card, the rate is on screen before you submit.

Zero fees

Zero fees to sell crypto, to buy crypto and to sell gift cards. The amount on your screen is the amount that lands in your naira balance.

Paid to any Nigerian bank

Withdraw to any Nigerian bank account. Across 1,700 measured bank payouts the median was 4.7 seconds; historical, not a guarantee.

One balance for the rest

Buy crypto with naira, sell gift cards, and pay for airtime, data, TV and electricity from the same balance.

Which one suits you

Coinstick suits you if you want a crypto-only app that also works in a web browser, or you hold PYUSD, which its rate ticker lists.

Yesa suits you if you want the exact naira amount on screen before you confirm, zero fees to sell or buy crypto, and gift cards and bills in the same app.
