Sterling Bank has launched AlwaysOn, a pioneering financial feature aimed at granting eligible customers up to N1 million extra monthly—even when their account balances are low.
The feature debuted on Workers’ Day 2025 and forms part of the bank’s broader strategy to eliminate financial barriers and empower Nigerians during uncertain times.
Accessible only by invitation, *AlwaysOn* is available through Sterling’s OneBank platform to customers who have maintained active accounts over time. Unlike traditional credit systems, it allows users to settle bills and make urgent payments seamlessly.

According to Abubakar Suleiman, Sterling Bank’s CEO, *AlwaysOn* represents more than just an overdraft facility—it is a declaration of trust and a new model of customer support. “This is about backing our customers when life demands bold action,” Suleiman said.
He added that the initiative reflects Sterling’s mission to create a financial ecosystem that supports individuals with big dreams and urgent needs.
The bank’s latest move follows its Zero Transfer Fees policy introduced in April, which reportedly returned over N13 billion to customers through waived transfer charges on the OneBank account.
