How To Login To My MTN and Things To Do On The App

MTN has many services available to its prepaid and contract customers. These services cut across data & airtime bundles, value-added services, WASPs services, and financial services such as the MTN Mobile Money (MTN MoMo). All these can become very overwhelming when you want to access or manage them because of the many USSD codes that are involved. This is why the network has brought the My MTN platform which you can use to control almost all of the network’s products and services.

The app is available for users of android and iOS devices. It allows one to do a lot of things, including simple tasks like buying data and airtime, or more complex things like paying bills and other functions that come with personalization and rewards.

This is a mobile application that is designed by MTN to serve as an all-in-one solution for subscribers of the network. The app is easy to download and can be used to manage many of the various products and services that the network has to offer.

The application does not only allow you to manage various services on the MTN network, but it also makes it possible for you to monitor other things, including your data consumption and charge rates for calls and messages.

With this app, you may not need to contact MTN representatives to solve certain issues you have. Using the MTN mobile app, you can carry out any activity on your line, and also access almost any information you may be seeking about the network and its products and services. The tool is available for use at all times of the day; 24/7.

How You Can Get The MTN App

As stated, the application is available for iOS and Android users but first, you will have to download it via the corresponding app store of your mobile device. While Android users can easily download it from Google Play Store, iOS users can get oy from App Store. It is important to note that whether you are getting the app from your android device or iOS, it is completely free to download and install.

Here are the steps to download and install the application on your mobile device:

  • Visit the app store of your phone operating system (Google Play Store or App Store)
  • Search for the MY MTN app and download and install it.
  • The next step to take is to launch the app.
  • To sign up, you will be required to put in your mobile number.
  • The process will be followed by an OTP which will be sent to you. Unless you receive and input the correct password, your sign up process cannot be completed.
  • Once you are signed up, you can go ahead and manage your account.

How To Login To My MTN Mobile App

Logging into the app is not the most convenient thing to do as unlike other apps where you can simply save your details and gain access whenever you launch the app, this does not provide for a password field. Instead, what you are always required to do is to make use of the OTP that MTN will send to you as soon as you launch the app.

Unfortunately, most people have complained about the delay in the OTP coming. There have been complaints by some that the OTP sometimes takes anything from an hour to up to 24 hours. While that is not the norm, here is a simple way that you can log into the app:

  • Launch the app on your mobile device.
  • Confirm your mobile number.
  • An OTP will be sent to your corresponding line.
  • Input the pin and you will be signed in.

When you want to log into the app with your sim in a modem, it becomes a challenge since you will not be able to see the sent OTP. Another issue that has been raised concerning the app is that the current version does not come with MTN MoMo, which means that you will have to download the mobile money application separately, which has been seen as a waste of space.

On the bright side, the app has a zero rate, which means that you can make use of it without needing to have any data on your phone.
