If you’re getting “You can’t fund wallet with wallet” on the InvestNaija, it usually means you’re trying to fund the MMF the wrong way.
Here’s what’s happening and how to fix it 👇
Why You’re Seeing “You Can’t Fund Wallet With Wallet”
On InvestNaija, there are usually two different balances:
Wallet balance (cash you funded)
Investment account (MMF / funds)
When you try to fund wallet again using wallet, the system blocks it — because you already have money in the wallet. Instead, you should invest directly, not fund again.
Correct Way to Buy MMF on InvestNaija
Follow these steps:
Step-by-Step
Open InvestNaija App
Go to Invest / InvestIN
Select Money Market Fund (MMF)
Click Invest / Buy
Choose Wallet balance as payment method
Enter amount
Confirm investment
That’s it.
If It Still Doesn’t Work (Common Reasons)
You may see that error if:
Minimum investment amount not reached
Wallet funds still pending/processing
You’re clicking “Fund” instead of “Invest”
Account not fully verified (KYC incomplete)
App bug (common with some users)
Quick Fix (Try These Now)
Log out and log in again
Update the app
Wait 10–30 minutes after funding
Try clicking Invest instead of Fund Wallet
If It Still Fails

The Simple 3-Step Fix
Why it failed earlier
The app thinks you are trying to “re-fund” your wallet with itself, which creates a technical loop. By going through the Invest menu instead of the Wallet menu, you tell the system to move the money from your “cash holding” into the “investment holding.”

Goodluck!
