5 Tips to Pay Safely with MTN MoMo & Airtel
- 1. Never share your PIN: MTN will never ask for your PIN. No legitimate business needs your PIN — only your phone number.

- 3. Check your balance before paying: Dial *182# to check your MoMo balance before making a purchase.
- 4. Save your transaction ID: After every payment, note the transaction ID sent via SMS — this is your proof of payment.
