You need a Nigerian bank account
This is the important part. KaysPay is funded by naira transfer to a dedicated account issued in your name. There is currently no card payment and no international funding, so an overseas account alone will not work.
If you keep a Nigerian bank account, you can pay family bills, buy airtime and renew DStv from anywhere. Read the funding requirement below before downloading.

Nigerian regulation requires verified identity before a dedicated funding account can be issued. Most Nigerians abroad already hold one of these.
Send a top-up to any supported Nigerian number directly, without asking someone at home to do it for you.
Pay a subscription against a smartcard number from wherever you are. The customer name on the account is shown before payment so you can confirm you have the right household.
Settle a prepaid or postpaid account using the meter number. For prepaid, the token is returned in the transaction receipt so you can pass it on.
Amounts, prices and your balance are all in naira. There is no currency conversion inside the app and no exchange rate applied.
Purchases are processed automatically rather than during Nigerian office hours, so you are not constrained by the time difference.
KaysPay will not currently be usable for you. We would rather say so here than have you download it and find out at the funding screen.
