What to Do If Data or Airtime Isn't Received

Even though a transaction shows successful, there may be a slight delay in receiving the data or airtime. Here’s how to troubleshoot:

1. Check Data Balance:

  • Network Providers Sometimes Delay Messages: It’s possible your customer didn’t receive a confirmation message, but the data might still be available.

  • Ask your customer to check their data balance.

  • We’ve included some helpful codes below to check data balance for different networks in Nigeria:

    • MTN:
      • 461*4# or *323*3# (Standard and SME)
      • *460*260# (MTN GoodyBag)
      • *323*4# (MTN Gifting/Data Coupon)
    • 9mobile: *323# (Gifting & Credit Balance)
    • Airtel: *323# (Gifting & Credit Balance)
    • Glo: *127*0# or *323# (Gifting & Credit Balance)

2. Contact Customer Service (If Data Still Not Reflected):

If the data balance check doesn’t show the expected amount after a reasonable wait time, contact customer service for further assistance.
