* samlak Imagine when you are in the middle an important call and your airtime got finished, you have a little fraction in your bank account but you are too far from the ATM machine and you are also scared of borrowing airtime from your network provider because of the high return rate of 15%. Then here is the best option for you.
Use USSD codes to buy airtime from your banks.
Why this Option?
USSD airtime recharge option can come in very handy when traveling, in a new location and/or when in need of urgent top-up for either data or voice calls.
This is far better than the regular quickteller option that requires an internet connection or you, going to the ATM centers to top-up your airtime.
Another amazing thing about using the USSD method for airtime top-us is that, you can do this with a feature phone (eg. Nokia touch) and from the comfort of your home.
It is completely free, reliable and secured as it is linked to the mobile phone number that your bank account is linked to.
