Ever been in the middle of an important Zoom call or trying to send a last-minute assignment, and boom – your data runs out? It\u2019s always at the worst time!<\/span><\/p>\n

I remember one evening, I was about to upload a job application I had spent hours perfecting. Just as I hit \u201csubmit,\u201d I got that dreaded pop-up: \u201cYou have exhausted your data.\u201d\u00a0 I started to panic. It was 11:47 PM, the deadline was midnight. No airtime, my bank\u2019s app was acting unfortunate, what do i do?<\/span><\/p>\n

Then I remembered MTN\u2019s XtraByte service. Within seconds, I borrowed data, uploaded my application, and beat the deadline. If you\u2019ve ever found yourself in a similar situation – panicking because your <\/span>data <\/span><\/a>finishes right when you need it most, this article is for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, I\u2019ll explore how you can easily borrow data from MTN. I\u2019ll cover the eligibility requirements and walk you through the steps to borrow data using USSD codes or the MyMTN app.<\/span><\/p>\n

First things first.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is MTN Xtrabyte?<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is MTN\u2019s data loan service that allows its eligible customers to do emergency data borrowing when they run out of data. With this, you can borrow data and pay back at a later time but with a 15% service charge attached. It\u2019s like MTN xtratime but for data.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a summary of what it entails:<\/span><\/p>\n

Eligibility Requirements for Borrowing Data from MTN<\/b><\/h2>\n

Before you can borrow data or even <\/span>borrow airtime from MTN<\/span><\/a>, you need to meet some requirements. Below are the criteria to be eligible to borrow data on your MTN line:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Prepaid line: Your MTN line must be on a prepaid plan.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. NIN link<\/span><\/a>: Your MTN line should be registered and linked to your National Identification Number (NIN).<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Active usage: You should have used your MTN line for at least three months.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Recharge history: You need to recharge a minimum of 200 Naira each month for three months.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Balance limit: Your main account balance should be between N0 and N75 when you request to borrow data.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. No outstanding loans: Make sure you have repaid any previous XtraByte loans.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Two Easy Ways to Borrow Data on MTN Line<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Once you meet the eligibility criteria, you have two options you can choose from to borrow data from MTN as of 2025. They are:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Via USSD code<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Through the MyMTN app<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Once you have logged in to the app, below are the steps involved in borrowing data:<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. On the dashboard, select \u201cBorrow\u201d.<\/span><\/li>\n

            3. How can I pay back borrowed MTN data?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

              How To Repay Borrowed Data on MTN<\/b><\/h2>\n

              Repaying borrowed data on MTN is simple and automated. Once you recharge your account, the total amount borrowed, which includes the service fee, will be automatically deducted from your main account on your next recharge.<\/span><\/p>\n

              If your recharge amount is less than what you owe, MTN will deduct the available funds and continue to deduct the remaining balance from subsequent recharges until the full amount is repaid. But if you recharge more than the amount borrowed, the outstanding loan amount will be cleared and the balance will be credited to your line\u2019s main account.<\/span><\/p>\n

              Please note that this repayment can only be done via recharge. This means that if you get data gifted to you or subscribe through your bank app, for instance, data cannot be used to offset borrowed data. Only recharge can.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n

                  \n
                1. Can I borrow data if I have an outstanding balance?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  You can borrow data even with an outstanding balance if you are still within your credit limit. However, if you have used up your credit limit, you must pay back the outstanding amount before you can borrow data again.<\/span><\/p>\n

                      The service fee is 15% of any amount you borrow. So if you borrow 100MB valued at 100 naira, 15% of that is 15 naira. The service fee here therefore, is 15 naira, and you\u2019d pay 115 naira in total when repaying.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                Conclusion\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n
