Airtime transfer is a feature that allows MTN users to share airtime with friends and family at any time. It's a convenient way to send airtime to those who are on the same network as you. In this article, we'll be discussing how to transfer airtime using MTN.
Step 1: Ensure you have enough airtime
Before you can proceed to transfer airtime, you need to make sure you have enough airtime on your MTN line. To check your airtime balance, simply dial *556# and send.
Step 2: Dial the airtime transfer code
To transfer airtime using MTN, dial *600*Recipient’s Number*Amount*PIN#. For example, if you want to transfer N500 to a friend with phone number 08012345678 and your transfer PIN is 1234, you'll dial *600*08012345678*500*1234#.

After dialing the airtime transfer code, MTN will prompt you to confirm to proceed with the transfer. To confirm, simply enter 1 and send.
Step 4: Receive confirmation message
Once the transfer is successful, you and the recipient will receive a notification from MTN confirming the transaction.
Note: MTN charges a transfer fee of 10% on each transfer made. For example, if you transfer N500, a transfer fee of N50 will also be deducted from your account.
