How To Link Nin To Glo Using Ussd Code (Updated Guide)
The National Identification Number (NIN) is now a mandatory requirement for many services in Nigeria, including mobile network registration. To comply with this regulation, every GLO subscriber must link their NIN to their GLO number. Thankfully, GLO has made the process simple with a USSD code, allowing you to easily complete the task from the comfort of your home.
If you haven’t linked your NIN to your GLO number yet, follow this updated guide to link your NIN through the USSD code:
Steps to Link NIN to GLO Using USSD Code:
Dial the NIN Linking USSD Code:
- To begin, dial *109# from your GLO mobile phone. This is the dedicated USSD code for linking your NIN to your GLO number.
Enter Your NIN:
- After dialing the code, you will be prompted to input your 11-digit National Identification Number (NIN). Carefully enter your NIN and ensure there are no errors. Remember, the NIN is a unique number issued to you during your registration with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).
Confirm Your Details:
- Once you’ve entered your NIN, the system will verify it and display your details on the screen. Take a moment to check that everything is correct. If any details are incorrect, re-enter your NIN to ensure accuracy.
Receive Confirmation:
- After successfully linking your NIN, you will receive a confirmation message on your phone. The message confirms that your NIN has been linked to your GLO number.
Verify the Linking Process:
- You can also check if your NIN has been successfully linked by dialing *109# again. If the system shows a confirmation message, then your NIN has been properly linked.
Important Tips:
- Ensure your NIN is correct and ready before you start the linking process. If you don’t have an NIN, visit a NIMC enrollment center to register.
- The NIN linking process is free, so avoid third-party services that charge for this procedure.
You can also visit a GLO customer care center if you encounter any issues with linking your NIN via USSD.
By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your NIN is successfully linked to your GLO number, complying with the Nigerian government's directive and avoiding service disruptions. Stay connected and compliant with GLO today!
