Who can enjoy the offer?
It is only customers that purchase the MiFi devices that come with the New SIM bundles that can enjoy this offer. You have to purchase the package from any of the MTN stores or the company’s partner shops. Customers that own the old MiFi device can also enjoy the Super Plan or Top Up bundle offers.

To activate the MiFi offer, take the steps below:
- Purchase the MiFi package that comes with the new SIM as described above.
- Register the SIM card.
- Insert the new SIM card into the MiFi then switch it on.
- Once you do, you will get several notifications. The first will tell you of the successful SIM registration. You will also get a notification of a 100% bonus offer via the MTN Portal meaning that you have 30GB of free data. If you don’t get this message, you need to send a message via SMS. Simply send “Activate” to “131.”

- To link your MiFi number to activate any of the plans, dial *131*500#.
Note that you don’t need to call a sales representative or the MTN contact centre to activate the 30GB free data offer. Simply follow the steps above to activate the SIM and you will get the bonus offer.
How can I activate the offer on an old MiFi device?
If you own an old MiFi device, you can still enjoy any of the MTN MiFi data plans. These plans include the Super Plan and Top-Up bundle offers. All you need to do is to send the MiFi’s serial number along with the IMEI to 131.
Here’s an example,
Send “012345678912 + 987654321098765” to 131.
You should note that you can only enjoy the Super Plan after the first six months of activating the device.
Will I enjoy the bonus offer if I insert the SIM into another device?
No, you can’t. The bonus was designed specifically for the MTN MiFi. If you take out the SIM and place it in another device like a smartphone or tablet, you wouldn’t access the bonus.
How can I purchase the MiFi Top-Up Bundle?
As we mentioned above, the top-up bundle allows you to purchase 3GB of data after you exhaust the monthly data bundle. This bundle costs N1000 and you can purchase it via any of the channels below:
- MiFi portal
- myMTNweb
- myMTN app
- USSD by dialling *131*1*5*3# from a phone number that is linked to the MiFi.
Note that you can purchase the Top-Up bundle as many times as you desire. However, it must be after you have exhausted the initial data plan that you subscribed to for the month. Also, you cannot purchase multiple top-up bundles at once. You must exhaust one first before you purchase another. Also, you can roll over any remaining or unused data from the top-up bundle to the next month.
