If you’re an MTN subscriber, there are a few different ways that you can transfer airtime to other MTN subscribers. In this article on naijaonlineguide.com, we’ll show you how to transfer airtime on MTN using different methods.

Airtime is a prepaid mobile phone subscription that you buy from your service provider. The money you pay to your service provider is used to buy airtime. You can use it to call, text or send multimedia messages (MMS). You can also use it to download apps and games.

Airtime cards commonly known as Recharge cards are available at most kiosk and petty stores. Some people prefer purchasing airtime online because they don’t have time to look for physical stores.

If you’re buying airtime online, make sure that you choose the right amount of airtime before confirming your order. Also make sure that you have enough money in your bank account to cover the price of the item plus shipping costs and taxes if applicable.

Knowing how to transfer airtime on MTN is something that’s very useful. For example if your loved one is in need of airtime and their no vendor available  or their is conflict in where he/she lives,  you can easily transfer airtime  to him/her without the person living his or her house.
