How to Share your MTN Data plan bundle with other MTN numbers

Just like sharing of airtime, MTN also let's you share your data with your family and friends. The procedures are pretty simple and straightforward.

There are actually two ways you can go about it and I will explain both methods in details in this post.

How to Share Data on MTN via data gifting 

This method lets you share your data to any MTN number but it is capped at 100MB maximum per recipient.

• Dial *123*3# and select 7 for gift data.
  
• Then you will get three options to either transfer from your data balance, buy a data for someone or request for data from another MTN number.
  
• Select your preferred option from the list.
• Then go ahead and input the recipient's MTN number
  
• Then select the amount of data you want to share with the recipient.
• That's all.

Note:

This option is only limited to twice a day and the maximum data you can transfer is 200MB.

How to Share Data on MTN with MTN data share 

• This will require you to register for the service first and then get your own unique security pin.
• First, register for the MTN Data Share service by dialing *131*2*1# or send REG to 131.
• After the registration, you will receive your own unique security PIN.
• You can then go ahead and change the PIN by dialing *131*2*5# or send a message CHANGE "space" your old pin "space" your new pin to 131, for example, “CHANGE 0000 1960” to 131, where “0000” is your old PIN and “1960” is your new Pin.
• Once that has been done, you can add your beneficiaries by dialing *131*2*3#. 
• You can only add up to 5 beneficiaries.
• After adding the beneficiaries, you will now be able to share your data with all the beneficiaries by dialing *131*2*4# or send Share to 131.

That's all guys.

Those are the two ways you can share your MTN data with your family and friends. I will be dropping the procedure for other network providers soon.
