Is your Glo line at the risk of getting barred because youâve not linked your NIN yet? Donât worry, I wrote this article to get you and your Glo line out of that risk in the most stressless way possible.Â
In Nigeria, the government has made it compulsory for everyone to link their National Identification Number (NIN) to their mobile lines to be able to continue using it. This directive applies to new and existing Glo users, as well as users of other network providers like MTN, Airtel and 9mobile.Â
The announcement was first made in December 2020, but the directive has come to light again in recent times. In this article, I will be showing you how to link NIN to a Glo line easily in 2025. I will also answer some likely questions you may have.Â
For you to be able to continue using your Glo line, you have to link your NIN to it. However, before trying to link your NIN to your Glo line, you should check your NIN status as you might have previously linked it.Â
To check your Glo NIN status, dial *996#, select option 1 and the status of your NIN will be sent via SMS. Then, go ahead to link your NIN if you need to.
Before, you could link your NIN to your glo line via USSD, SMS or the Glo NIN portal. However, right now, those options are currently not available. Therefore, to link your NIN to your Glo line without going through the trouble of visiting a Glo office, you will have to use the NIMC app.Â
You can use the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) mobile app to link NIN to a Glo line. This app allows you to link up to seven numbers to a single NIN.
To link your NIN to your Glo number using the NIMC app in 2025, follow these steps:
1. Why should I link my NIN to my Glo line?
You should link your NIN to your Glo line to comply with government regulations and ensure the security of your mobile services. If your NIN is not linked, you may not be able to perform basic tasks like making & receiving calls, topping up airtime, buying data, etc.Â
Linking your NIN to your line is mandatory by law, and helps to verify your identity, preventing identity theft and fraud.
2. How do I check if my NIN is linked to my Glo number?
To check if your NIN is linked to your Glo line, dial *996#, select option 1 âCheck NIN Statusâ and Glo will send you an SMS telling you whether or not your NIN is linked to your number.Â
3. How can I retrieve my NIN on Glo?
If youâve previously linked your NIN to your Glo line and need to retrieve it, you can do so by dialling *346# and selecting option 1 âNIN Retrievalâ. Glo will display your NIN to you.Â
4. Can I link my NIN to my Glo number by myself?
Yes, you can link your NIN to your Glo number by yourself without visiting a Glo office. You can use the NIMC app to link your NIN, as discussed in this article.Â
5. What is the USSD code for linking NIN to Glo?
Currently, you cannot link your NIN to a Glo number via USSD as the â109â service is no longer available. You will have to use the NIMC app or visit a Glo office near you.Â
6. What should I do if I canât link my NIN to my Glo number?
If you canât link your NIN to your Glo number yourself through the NIMC app, check that the details you entered are correct. If they are and you still canât link your NIN, contact Glo customer care or visit a Gloworld office near you for further assistance.Â
In summary, ensuring that you link your Glo line to your NIN is essential. This is to ensure you comply with government regulations and avoid the risk of service interruption. If you have yet to link your NIN to your line, take action now and stay connected.
This article shows you how to easily link your NIN to your Glo line yourself using the NIMC mobile app. By following the outlined steps, you can seamlessly complete the process and ensure the smooth running of your mobile services.
