The Dangote Petroleum Refinery IPO is one of the biggest investment opportunities attracting attention from Nigerian investors. The offer is priced at N525 per share, with a minimum subscription of 10 shares, meaning you can start with ₦5,250. The official Dangote IPO website currently lists Bamboo among the approved fintech channels for the offer.
Get Your Bamboo Account Ready
If you plan to buy through Bamboo, do not wait until the listing day before preparing your account. You need an active NGX brokerage account on Bamboo. This is connected to your CSCS account, which is where your Nigerian shares are held. So the first thing you need to do is download the Bamboo app on either Play Store or App store.
If you do not already have a CSCS account through Bamboo, you can activate your NGX brokerage account from the Bamboo app. Bamboo may require your bank details, next of kin information, address and BVN. Your BVN name and bank account name should match for successful account creation.
Your CSCS number and CHN can be found inside Bamboo under Account Details. Your CSCS number is associated with your brokerage account, while your CHN is your unique investor identification number in the Nigerian stock market.
Fund Your Account Before the Offer
It is also wise to fund your Bamboo NGN wallet before the offer opens. If you want 100 shares, for example, you should have at least N52,500 available, excluding any applicable charges.
According to Bamboo, investors with an active NGX account and sufficient funds in their NGN wallet can subscribe to an available public offer directly through the app. The process involves selecting the IPO, entering the number of shares, reviewing the order and placing the subscription.
The offer is expected to open on September 14 and close on October 13, 2026, while the listing is expected later in November, according to recent reports.
Remember, subscribing does not automatically guarantee that you will receive every share you request. If the IPO is oversubscribed, investors may receive fewer shares than they applied for, with excess funds refunded according to the offer terms.
