How Many Digits Is MTN Recharge Card?
Before now, we all knew that MTN recharge codes were always 16 digits. However, recent developments have brought about MTN recharge cards with 10, 13, 15, and 17 existing with the known 16-digit recharge cards.
How To Recharge MTN Card
This is something that I suppose everyone on the MTN network knows. However, things have changed a little bit due to the introduction of recharge cards with longer and shorter digits than the known 16-digit recharge cards.
The known method for loading any recharge card is to dial:
*Recharge code *recharge pin#
For example, if you have an airtime of 16 digits,
You can recharge using any of the following codes:
Old code: *555*5793850284982640#
New code: *311*5793850284982640#
You can now recharge your line using *311*rechragepin#. This is the new directive from MTN as of 2nd, May 2023. At the time of writing this post, this cannot be found on the back of any MTN recharge card.
MTN Recharge Code For 10-Digit PIN
Recharge codes for loading 10-digit pin recharge cards are different. The recharge code for loading 10-digit recharge cards is *3551* recharge pin#.
Here is how to do it:
- Let’s say your recharge card pin is 0123456789.
- Now dial: *3551*0123456789#.
- Your line will be credited immediately with the exact amount of airtime.
