How To Easily Link Nin To Glo Line: What You Need To Know

Linking your National Identification Number (NIN) to your GLO line is a crucial step for all mobile network users in Nigeria. The Nigerian government has mandated that every mobile phone number be linked to a NIN for security, identification, and anti-fraud purposes. If you’re a GLO user, here's a detailed guide on how to easily link your NIN to your GLO line.

Step-by-Step Process to Link NIN to GLO Line

Dial the NIN Link USSD Code

The first step to linking your NIN to your GLO line is to dial the USSD code: *109#. This code is the official way to link your NIN to your GLO number.

Enter Your NIN

Once you dial *109#, you will be prompted to enter your 11-digit NIN. It’s important to ensure that the NIN you enter is correct and matches the one on your National Identification card.

Submit Your Information

After entering your NIN, press the appropriate key to submit the details. The system will process the request, and you should receive a confirmation message that your NIN has been successfully linked to your GLO line.

Wait for Confirmation

Once your NIN is successfully linked, you will receive a confirmation SMS from GLO indicating that your NIN has been successfully updated. If there’s any issue with the process, you may receive a message with instructions on how to correct it.

Alternative Method: Using the GLO App

For those who prefer using their smartphones, you can also link your NIN through the GLO mobile app. Download the GLO Selfcare App from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, log in with your phone number, and follow the simple prompts to update your NIN information.

Why You Should Link Your NIN

Linking your NIN to your GLO line is not only a government requirement, but it also ensures your safety and helps reduce fraudulent activities. The link helps to authenticate your identity, preventing the registration of fake or cloned SIM cards. Additionally, failing to link your NIN may result in a suspension of your mobile services, so it’s important to act promptly.

Conclusion 

Linking your NIN to your GLO line is a quick and simple process that can be done via USSD or the GLO app. By following these steps, you’ll be in compliance with Nigerian regulations, and you’ll also help contribute to a safer, more secure mobile network.
