In this guide, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of reactivating your Wema Bank account so you can regain access to your funds and enjoy the bank’s services once again.

When your Wema bank is restricted, you will be unable to carry out transactions like money transfers, buying airtime, paying bills, and many more. If you want to get back to using your account to carry out transactions, you will need to reactivate your account.
In this post, I am going to be writing about how to reactivate your Wema bank account and more.
How to Reactivate Wema Bank Account
As of November 2023, below is how you can reactivate your Wema bank account, according to Wema Bank:
By USSD
- Dial *945*5# or *945# and select ‘account reactivation’ from the menu.
- Select the account to reactivate.
- Enter Account Officer Code (if known) or select 1 to proceed.
- Enter 945 PIN to validate the request.
Depending on the class of your account, your account will either be automatically reactivated, or you may receive a link to upload a valid ID and utility bill via SMS.
Your account would be reactivated after the document review.
Using ALAT
With a deposit of as little as N500, you can automatically reactivate your account.
*This service is strictly for accounts that have been inactive for 5 years or less.
