Connect to MTN, Glo, Airtel and 9Mobile and start sending airtime and data recharges within minutes.
Using Reloadly’s programmable and scalable API, it is now easier than ever to distribute virtual airtime top-ups through Nigeria’s leading mobile operators.
Nigeria makes up the largest mobile market share in Africa, with 199 million subscribers as of March 2020. As of 2020, the telecom sector contributed over 10% to the country’s economy — the second largest on the continent after South Africa — making for an increase from 7.5% just three years ago.
In Nigeria, mobile operators still use 100% GSM technology for their networks. Nigerians are considered heavy mobile users, and mobile telephony connects more people to the internet than any other technology, making mobile phones the primary platform for creating, distributing and consuming digital content and services in the country.
Today, Nigeria’s mobile market benefits from strong international competition. MTN, a giant telco from South Africa, leads the market, but only barely. In recent years, mobile operators have faced heavy financial pressures due to the nation’s economic woes, which have resulted in large-scale job losses.
There are four main mobile operators in Nigeria. They are:
Reloadly offers an airtime API connection to Nigerian mobile subscribers with an instant prepaid balance top up mechanism and notifications for success or failure. Reloadly also provides attractive discounts on every transaction so you can save or earn profits.
