How to Share Data on MTN
MTN provides convenient methods to share data with friends and family, primarily through USSD codes and the myMTN app.
Using USSD Codes for Data Transfer
The most direct way to transfer data from your current balance to another MTN number is by using a specific USSD string:
- Direct Data Transfer Code: Dial 312*RecipientPhoneNumber*AmountOfDataInMB#.
- Example: To transfer 100MB of data to the phone number 08031235678, you would dial 312*08031235678*100#.
Accessing Data Share Service Menus
You can also navigate to data sharing options through MTN's service menus by dialling the following USSD codes:
- Dial *321*2#*
- Dial *312*8#*
These codes typically lead to a menu where you can select options related to data sharing and other services.
Using the myMTN App
For a more graphical and user-friendly interface, you can access the data sharing service through the official myMTN app. The app allows you to manage your data and initiate transfers with ease.
