Two ways to turn crypto or gift cards into naira. Here is what each one states, the differences that matter, and who each suits.
Roqqu's column is what its own site says, checked 24 September 2026. Yesa's column is what Yesa publishes.

What Roqqu offers, as it describes it, beside how Yesa handles the same thing.
| Roqqu (per its site) | Yesa | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Buying, selling, swapping and virtual cards, with one of the largest user bases among Nigerian crypto apps. | Buying, selling and swapping too, with gift cards and bills from the same balance. |
| 2 | Selling fees, supported networks and payout times not published on its website when we checked. | Zero sell fees published up front, and a measured payout median of 4.7 seconds. |
| 3 | Bills payment listed on its site; gift-card selling is not. | Gift cards sold for naira, plus airtime, data, TV and electricity from the same balance. |
Roqqu: you want a large, long-established app and are happy to check fees and payout times inside it.
Yesa: you want the fee position and the payout speed published up front, and gift cards in the same app.
Android or iPhone. Your naira balance, deposit addresses and gift-card screen are ready as soon as you are in.
Pick the coin or the card. The naira figure is on screen before you send anything.
Sell at the figure shown and withdraw to any Nigerian bank. Or keep the naira and buy crypto, airtime or bills from the same balance.
It depends on what you value. The differences are laid out above, each with the Yesa side beside it. Yesa is built around the rate on screen first, zero sell fees, and buying and selling in one app. Pick by the one thing that matters most to you.
Yesa charges zero sell fees on crypto and gift cards. Roqqu: Not published on its website when we checked; its fees page rendered no table.
Yesa publishes a measured median of 4.7 seconds across 1,700 bank payouts, historical rather than guaranteed. Roqqu: no payout time is published on its website.
Yes. Nothing stops you holding both apps and choosing per transaction. Many people check the naira figure in two apps before a large sale.
Yes. Buying, holding and selling cryptocurrency is legal for individuals in Nigeria. Digital assets are recognised under the Investments and Securities Act 2025, and the Securities and Exchange Commission regulates digital asset services. Crypto is not legal tender, and profits from trading may be taxable, so keep your own records of what you buy and sell. This is general information rather than legal or tax advice; the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Central Bank of Nigeria publish the current position.
