Pay someone to stand in the NIMC queue
The waiting does not need you. Send a verified runner to hold the place, watch the check-ins from wherever you are, and turn up for the part that needs your face.
NIMC, passport offices and the other queues
NIMC centres: NIN and BVN enrolment
The queue forms before the doors open. A runner takes the early place and tells you when to come — you only need to be there for the part with your face in it.
State secretariats, FRSC and licence offices
Vehicle papers, state forms, anything that opens at 8 and has forty people by 7.30. Most of the wait needs a body, not you.
Bank counters
The things that still cannot be done in the app. A runner holds the place; some of it they can finish outright.
Passport offices, embassy and immigration windows
Where the appointment is yours but the hour before it is not. They queue, you arrive for the window itself.
What happens
- 1Post it
The office, the time it opens, how long you think the wait is, and your fee.
- 2Fund it
The fee plus the platform fee is held from your wallet. Nothing goes live unfunded.
- 3They queue
Check-ins with location and photos as they go, so you can see the line moving.
- 4You arrive
They call you near the front. At handover you type their 6-digit code and the fee is released.

Questions people ask
- Can I really pay someone to queue for me in Nigeria?
- Yes. You post the errand with the office, the time and a fee, and a verified runner takes it. It is the most common errand on Zendrun because it needs nothing but someone's time.
- What does it cost to have someone queue for me?
- You set the fee — the runner decides whether it is worth their morning, so a four-hour queue pays more than a twenty-minute one. On top of that the platform fee is the greater of ₦200 or 15% of the fee. A queue with no buying attached has no spend ceiling, so that is the whole cost.
- How do I know they are actually in the queue?
- Each check-in carries evidence before the next one unlocks: where they are, a photo, a timestamp. You watch it happen from the app rather than taking their word at the end.
- What if the queue needs me in person at the end?
- Most do, and that is the point — the runner holds the place through the waiting and calls you when you are near the front. You turn up for the five minutes that need your face.
- Can they pay the fee at the counter too?
- Yes, if you set a ceiling. They pay with their own money up to that figure and escrow reimburses them at handover. If the counter asks for more than your ceiling, they ask you first and wait.
- How quickly does someone take it?
- Once it is funded it is on the board for every verified runner in that city. Whoever accepts has 30 minutes to start, or it goes back on the board.
