Most people who top up a number in Nigeria also visit. Data from the moment you land, and fares for the trip, from the same place.
Bank OTPs, banking apps and ID verification all need your home SIM active. A small recharge every validity cycle keeps it working while you're abroad.
Parents' phone out of balance? Recharge it from here with your card and they get it before you've closed the tab.
Same Slashtel account as your travel eSIM. One WhatsApp support line for both. Data without borders, in both directions.
Enter the number and we detect the operator automatically. Plans and amounts shown are live from the operator.
Balance codes, customer care numbers and how long each Nigeria number stays active are on the Nigeria recharge page and each operator page (MTN, Airtel, Glo, 9mobile).
Pay with a card from any country. Top up numbers in Nigeria with a Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay or Google Pay issued anywhere (debit or credit; prepaid and gift cards are not accepted). No local bank account, local wallet or local number needed.
Country code +234: how to call Nigeria and its number format.
You can recharge a Nigeria number from Canada through Slashtel by entering the Nigerian mobile number, choosing a plan and paying by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.

There are 48 plans across MTN, Glo, Airtel and 9Mobile, including Airtel Nigeria data recharge and 9Mobile Nigeria data recharge.
Last checked: October 2026
Slashtel sends a top up from Canada straight to the Nigerian number you enter. You pick a plan, pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and the operator is detected from the number itself. There is no app to install and no account at the Nigerian operator is needed.
Nigerian numbers use the dial code 234. The plans on this page cover MTN, Glo, Airtel and 9Mobile, including their data ranges such as MTN Nigeria Data, Glo Nigeria Data, Airtel Nigeria Data and 9Mobile Nigeria Data.
The catalogue holds 48 plans for Nigerian numbers, with data bundles running from 7 days to 30 days. Small bundles suit a quick top up, while monthly plans cover a full month of browsing. Glo, MTN, Airtel and 9Mobile all appear, so most family numbers in Nigeria can be topped up from Canada.
Short plans include the Glo Nigeria Data 6GB Special Data Plan at 1500 NGN for 7 days, the Airtel Nigeria Data 8.5GB Weekly Plan at 3000 NGN for 7 days and the MTN Nigeria Data 7GB Data at 3500 NGN for 7 days.
Monthly options include the Airtel Nigeria Data 2GB Data at 1500 NGN, the Glo Nigeria Data 6.25GB Data Plan at 2000 NGN, the 9Mobile Nigeria Data 15GB Data at 3000 NGN and the MTN Nigeria Data 10GB plus 10mins Monthly Data Plan at 4500 NGN. Larger bundles include the 9Mobile Nigeria Data 22GB Data at 5000 NGN and the Glo Nigeria Data 17GB Data Plan at 5000 NGN.
Where a plan is taxed, the amount shown as received is what lands on the line after the operator's tax has been applied.
A Nigerian number stays useful when you live in Canada. It holds bank alerts, one time codes and messages from family, and a data plan keeps the line working for browsing and chat. A small monthly top up is often enough to stop the line going quiet while you are away.
Many people in Canada keep a Nigerian SIM for banking and for apps that only accept a local number. Data plans such as the 9Mobile Nigeria Data 18.5GB bundle, which includes 15GB plus 3.5GB night data at 4000 NGN for 30 days, give the line something to run on.
Airtime top ups are also available for all listed operators, which helps when a relative needs credit rather than data.
Nigerian mobile numbers have 10 digits after the dial code. The example on this page is 0802 123 4567 in national form and +234 802 123 4567 in international form. When you use the international form, drop the leading zero, so 0802 becomes 802.
Slashtel detects the operator from the number, so the correct format matters. If you paste a number with the zero still in place after 234, the detection can fail.
Check the first digits against the network your family uses before you pay. A wrong digit sends the top up to someone else.
Payment is made in Canadian dollars by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Top ups start from $3.17, and the price you see is the price you pay for the plan you choose. There is no need for a Nigerian bank card or a local wallet to send a top up from Canada.
Prices on this page were checked on 2026-10-29. Plan values are listed in NGN because that is what the operator credits to the line, while your payment is taken in Canadian dollars at checkout.
Once paid, the top up is sent to the number you entered. Keep the confirmation so you can refer to it if the person you are helping says the bundle has not arrived.
Enter the Nigerian mobile number in international form, such as +234 802 123 4567, choose a plan and pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Slashtel detects the operator from the number and sends the top up straight to the line. Top ups start from $3.17.

Use 10 digits after the dial code 234 and drop the leading zero. A number written as 0802 123 4567 becomes +234 802 123 4567. Correct format lets Slashtel detect the operator and send the top up to the right line.
Top ups start from $3.17, paid in Canadian dollars by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The plan you pick shows the data or airtime value credited in NGN. Where a plan is taxed, the amount shown is what lands after the operator's tax.
