    Filling an e-mandate form is usually straightforward, but it depends on the bank or investment platform you are using. Here’s a step-by-step guide that applies to most Nigerian banks and investment apps (Afrinvest, Stanbic, Bamboo, InvestNaija, etc.):

    1. Understand What an e-Mandate Is

    e-Mandate = electronic authorization allowing automatic debit from your bank account for a specific purpose (investment, bill payment, savings, loan repayment).

    It links your bank account to the company or investment platform.

    2. Typical Sections on an e-Mandate Form

    Section

    What to Fill

    Bank Name

    Select your bank where funds will be debited

    Account Name

    Your full bank account name

    Account Number

    Your bank account number

    Amount / Limit

    Specify the amount per debit or “open” if variable

    Frequency

    One-time, daily, weekly, monthly (depending on your plan)

    Purpose / Beneficiary

    Name of the platform, company, or service (e.g., Afrinvest, Stanbic IBTC, InvestNaija)

    Start Date

    When the mandate should start

    End Date

    Optional; if left blank, it runs until cancelled

    Signature / Consent

    Sign or type your e-signature if digital

    3. Steps to Fill & Submit

    Download or Access Form

    Most platforms provide a PDF or online form.

    Example: Afrinvest, Bamboo, InvestNaija all allow download or online submission.

    Fill Bank Details

    Use the bank account from which funds will be debited.

    Double-check account number and account name.

    Specify Amount and Frequency

    Example:

    N10,000 monthly for ETF purchase

    N5,000 weekly for mutual fund savings

    Specify Beneficiary / Purpose

    Clearly write the name of the investment platform.

    Sign the Form

    If digital, use e-signature or tick the consent box.

    If physical, sign with your pen.

    Submit Form

    Submit online via the investment platform or physically at your bank branch.

    Some banks require verification (OTP, email confirmation, or in-branch approval).

    4. After Submission

    You will receive confirmation from the bank or platform.

    Test transaction may be debited to verify.

    You can usually cancel anytime by contacting your bank or the platform.

    5. Tips to Avoid Mistakes

    Ensure account name matches exactly with bank record.

    Confirm beneficiary name is correct.

    Enter amount and frequency accurately to avoid overdraft.

    Keep a copy of the filled form for reference.

    The first step to fill an e-dividend mandate form is to identify the Registrar in charge of the shares you bought. You could search the name of the Registrar online.

    After you have identified the Registrar, you can fill and submit the form using any of these methods:

    1. Physical Submission at a Registrar’s Office: Shareholders can fill the form and submit it directly to the office of the registrar handling their shares.

    2. Email Submission: Many registrars, allow shareholders to scan and send their filled, signed forms via email to a designated email address.

    3. NIBSS E-Dividend Mandate Management System (E-Dmms) Portal: This is a largely automated method where an investor uses the NIBSS website portal to upload required documents, such as a signature, passport, and ID, for online submission. The Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigeria has also introduced a self-service portal to allow for virtual submission.

    4. Registrars’ E-Mandate Platforms: Some registrars have their own online portals, such as e-dividend.cardinalstone.com, where investors can directly fill out and submit their mandate information online.

    5. Stockbroker-Assisted Submission: Some stockbrokers usually assist in filling the form and facilitating the submission process to the Registrar on behalf of the investor.
