Top up a 9mobile number from abroad by entering the Nigerian mobile number, choosing a 9mobile airtime or data plan, and paying with your card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Slashtel sends the top-up straight to the number, and the operator is detected from the number itself.
You do not need a 9mobile account, a Nigerian bank card or a local app. The person receiving the top-up does not need to do anything either. The airtime or data arrives on the line you entered.
9mobile airtime top-ups start from $5.47 and can be sent at four amounts, while data plans run from 15GB to 50GB for 30 days. Every plan listed here is untaxed, so the amount shown is exactly what lands on the 9mobile line.
Airtime is the flexible choice. It lets your family member in Nigeria buy whatever they need on their own line, and the credit lands directly. The airtime amounts are 8618 NGN, 17237 NGN, 25855 NGN and 34473 NGN.
Data plans suit people who mostly browse, stream and use messaging apps. The 15GB Data plan gives 15GB for 30 days at 3000 NGN. The Data 18.5GB plan gives 15GB plus 3.5GB Night, also for 30 days, at 4000 NGN. The 22GB Data plan gives 22GB for 30 days at 5000 NGN. The Data 50GB plan gives 50GB for 30 days at 10000 NGN.
All four data plans are valid for 30 days and none of them is taxed. What you see on the plan is what the 9mobile number receives. If a plan were taxed, the amount shown would be what lands after the operator's tax, but that does not apply to these plans.
Enter the 9mobile number in international format, starting with the country code 234, then the number without the leading zero. A Nigerian number such as 0802 123 4567 becomes +234 802 123 4567, and that is the form Slashtel needs to route the top-up.
The dial code for Nigeria is 234. Nigerian mobile numbers have 10 digits after the leading zero is dropped, so check that the number you type has the right length. The most common mistake is leaving the zero in place after the country code.
Slashtel detects the operator from the number. If you enter a 9mobile number, the order goes to 9mobile. Nigeria also has MTN, Airtel and Glo, so take a moment to confirm the number belongs to the person you are topping up before you pay. A quick message to your family member is enough to check it.
Most failed top-ups come from a number entered in the wrong format or a payment that was not completed. Check the number against the international format, confirm the payment went through, and only then try the order again.
If the number is wrong, the top-up may be sent to a line that is not your family member's. That is why it is worth confirming the number before paying. If the payment step failed, no top-up is sent and you can start again.
If an order does not arrive, keep your order confirmation and contact support with the number you entered and the plan you chose. Do not place a second order for the same number until the first one has been checked.
Pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Slashtel, and the top-up goes straight to the 9mobile number you entered. You never share a 9mobile password or PIN, and the person receiving the top-up does not need to approve anything.
Airtime and data are sent to the number, not to an account, so there is nothing to log into on the 9mobile side. Keep your payment confirmation. It is the reference you need if you have a question about an order.
Check the plan and the number on the confirmation screen before you pay. Once the top-up is sent, it lands on the line you entered, so the last check is the most useful one.
