How It Works?

Airtime Transfer

1. Change your SIM card pin code from the default pin to a personalized pin. The USSD code is 247 and the default pin is 0000 so just dial *247*Default pin*New pin#. Example *247*0000*1234# then send.
2. Check your airtime balance to make sure you have enough for the transfer
3. To transfer airtime, dial *223* pin*amount*recipient’s 9mobile no# Example *223*1234*500*08181234567# then send
4. You will receive a message asking you to confirm or cancel the transaction, press 1 to confirm.

 

Note

You can only transfer to subscribers on the 9mobile network and no service fee will be charged. Also you must have extra airtime before you can transfer so if you have #100 you can only transfer #50 and not all your airtime.

 

Data Transfer Processes

Just dial *229*pin*data volume to transfer*recipient’s 9mobile no#. Example *229*1234*200*08181234567#

 

Note

1. You must have an active data plan before you can transfer and the moment your data expires so will the transferred data also expire.
2. The minimum volume of data for transfer is 10Mb and maximum is 50Mb thus if you want to transfer 200Mb then it means you send the code four times that is 50Mb each time till its complete
3. Maximum volume of data you can transfer in a day is 250Mb
4. You can only transfer from data you purchased and not bonus data, also you can only transfer to a subscriber using 9mobile
5. You must have extra or left over data before you can begin the transfer. For example if you have 500MB, you can only transfer between 50-400 Mb. You can’t transfer all your data volume.
