About
Written for a Nigerian bank account
Naira-first AI side income for people with a 9-to-5. No dollar-card assumptions, no “just get a US LLC”, no income promises.
Why this exists
Search “make money with AI” from Lagos and you get two kinds of page. American listicles that assume a Stripe account and a $99/month tool budget. Nigerian pages that promise ₦500,000 a month and sell you a WhatsApp group. Neither tells you what Google Flow costs in naira, whether YouTube will demonetise the channel you are about to build, or whether the affiliate commission you are chasing can even reach a Nigerian bank.
Lowkey Paid is the page in between. Every article answers one buyer question, quotes the real price, states the platform rule that governs it, and carries the date we last checked.
How we verify
- Prices are read off the vendor’s own pricing page and converted at a stated rate, on a stated date.
- Policies are quoted from the platform’s policy page, not from a YouTuber’s summary of it.
- Payout terms are checked against the affiliate network’s own documentation — network, method, minimum, currency, hold.
- Tools are used before they are reviewed. If we have not used it, we say so.
What we will not do
- Publish an income figure we have not seen happen.
- Rank a tool higher because it pays a bigger commission.
- Recommend a program whose payout a Nigerian resident cannot withdraw — even if the rate is excellent.
- Sell a countdown timer, a “last chance” that resets, or a course with no refund.
The business model, stated plainly
Three things pay for this site: ₦5,000 -class courses sold through Selar, disclosed affiliate links to tools we actually use, and the ₦2,500/month Intel Membership. That mix is deliberate: the courses make the site independent of any tool vendor’s affiliate program.
