To subscribe to MTN XtraValue bundles, you can use specific USSD codes or an SMS method.
How to Subscribe to MTN XtraValue
MTN offers multiple convenient ways to access their XtraValue bundles, which provide a combination of talk time and data. Here are the primary methods to get the codes and subscribe:
1. Using USSD Codes
The most common way to subscribe to XtraValue bundles is by dialing a short USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data) code directly from your phone. After dialing, you will be presented with a menu to select your desired XtraValue plan.
- Primary USSD Code: Dial *312*5#
- Alternative USSD Code: Dial *123*2*5#
Once you dial either of these codes, follow the on-screen prompts to browse the available XtraValue plans and choose the one that best suits your needs.
2. Via SMS
You can also subscribe to an XtraValue plan by sending an SMS. This method requires knowing the specific keyword for your preferred XtraValue plan.
- SMS Method: Send the SMS keyword of your chosen XtraValue plan to 312.
Practical Tip: If you're unsure about the exact SMS keyword for a particular XtraValue plan, using the USSD codes (*312*5# or *123*2*5#) is generally more straightforward as it provides a menu-driven selection process, allowing you to view and select from all available options directly.
