Pay Carfast from Nigeria In Your Name
Carfast accepts vehicle payments by wire transfer only. Clea enables you to fund in Naira, convert to USD and send the complete amount on your Carfast invoice from Nigeria.
Carfast Requires the Full Invoice Amount
After you win a vehicle, Carfast sends the payment notification and bank details to your email and account.
Vehicle purchases cannot be paid by debit card, credit card, PayPal, Zelle, MoneyGram, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The accepted method is bank wire transfer.
Your payment must cover the complete invoice, including the vehicle price and applicable auction charges.
Carfast also warns that intermediary banks may deduct fees from international wires. If this happens, Carfast receives less than the amount due and the buyer remains responsible for the outstanding balance.
Clea gives Nigerian buyers a clearer route: fund in Naira, review the conversion and payment cost, and send the approved USD amount using the instructions on the invoice.
How to Pay Carfast from Nigeria with Clea
Get the Final Invoice
After winning, open your Carfast account and review the invoice. Confirm the vehicle, lot number, total amount due, beneficiary details and payment deadline.
Upload the Invoice to Clea
Create your Clea account, complete verification and submit the Carfast invoice. Add the beneficiary exactly as it appears in the official wire instructions.
Fund in Naira
Transfer Naira from your Nigerian bank account into your dedicated Clea account. You do not need to maintain a domiciliary account or arrange payment through someone abroad.
Convert and Send USD
Review the exchange rate, applicable fees and Naira amount required. Convert to USD and send the approved payment using the Carfast wire details and invoice reference.
Track Both Accounts
Monitor the transfer from your Clea dashboard. Carfast will also send an email when it receives the payment, and you can check the current status from your Carfast account.
Three Business Days to Complete Payment
Carfast requires payment within three business days after you win the vehicle.
The company recommends sending the payment by the second day to allow time for bank-wire processing. Late payments currently attract a fee of $50 for every business day the invoice remains unpaid.
Failure to complete the purchase can lead to loss of your security deposit, relisting of the vehicle, a relisting charge of $600 or 10% of the vehicle price (whichever is higher), and an additional transaction fee based on your membership plan.
Start your Clea transaction as soon as the final Carfast invoice becomes available.

Built for Time-Sensitive Purchases
From Payment to Shipping to Nigeria
Once Carfast confirms the vehicle payment, you can place a delivery order from the Lots Won section of your account.
Carfast can arrange pickup from the auction yard, move the vehicle to a US port and coordinate international shipping to Nigeria. Buyers can select their destination port, request an estimated delivery cost and follow the shipment through their account.
Confirm whether transportation is included in your vehicle invoice or issued as a separate payment before funding.
