  • How to Activate AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer For 6 Months Unlimited Talk-time

    How to Activate AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer For 6 Months Unlimited Talk-time

    Calling your friends and relatives to check up on them every morning could actually be weird right? Especially, in this COVID-19 era where the cost of mobile credit and data is very expensive.

    What is I could tell you that there’s a way you can actually call your friends and loved ones every morning for the next six months. But, this offer is for only AirtelTigo customers.

    When Airtel and Tigo joined forces to establish one big company, the main reason they gave was that they were going to improve their services and offers; and till this day, they have delivered exactly that.

    During this COVID-19 where people are being laid off work and struggling to make ends meet, AirtelTigo has introduced a new package that is going to help their loyal customers to make free unlimited calls every morning for the next 6 months.

    What is Free AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer?

    The AirtelTigo free morning offer is a relief package that AirtelTigo is introducing to help their customers in this coronavirus pandemic. In this offer, customers will be allowed to make free calls every morning for the next six months.

    How Does It Work?

    Every morning for the next 6 months, all subscribers will be given free unlimited on-net calls for a limited period of time (5 am to 10 am). The subscribers will also receive free 100 MB worth of data every morning to browse the internet. In addition to all these packages, subscribers will also be granted six months of free Mobile Money (AirtelTigo) transfer to all other AirtelTigo Money (ATM) subscribers.

    The free morning offer is available for only AirtelTigo to Airtel Tigo calls during the allocated time between the hours of 5 am and 10 am. Calls that will be placed before or after this period will be charged at the normal call rate.

    For new customers who activate their sim however, there will be one-month free morning offer.

    In addition to that, a newly registered customer who fails to make the AirtelTigo Money (ATM) transactions within the first 30 days of being on the network, they will not be eligible to enjoy the Free Morning Offer anytime after that.

    In case they want to join, they need to purchase it for an amount of GH¢ 2.

    How to Activate AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer For 6 Months Unlimited Talk-time

    This offer is available to existing customers and new people who want to switch from their current mobile service provider to AirtelTigo. This method used by AirtelTigo is not only aimed at helping customers but also bring more customers on board as well.

    New AirtelTigo Customers

    To qualify for this offer as a new customer,

    • You first of all need to visit an agent or AirtelTigo office with a valid Ghana Card to buy a new AirtelTigo sim card.
    • After buying the sim card, you are required to ask the provider to register you on the AirtelTigo Money (ATM) service.
    • Upon completion, you are required to start making transactions on your AirtelTigo Money account. This will verify that you are indeed enrolled on the platform as a customer but not as an “opportunist” who wants to benefit from the package and after that leave the network.

    The transactions you make should include the following:

    • Airtime Purchase
    • Peer-to-peer transaction
    • Interoperability money transfer
    • Buy bundle/package
    • Cash-out
    • Merchant payment

    Once you have made enough transactions to show that you are indeed here to stay in the one month period, you will automatically qualify for the package. Once you qualify, an SMS will be sent to your phone indicating that you have qualified for the free morning offer.

    Existing AirtelTigo Customers

    With existing customers, there’s no need for you to show whether you’re here to stay or not. But before you can subscribe to the free morning offer, you need to be a subscribed AirtelTigo Money customer.

    Once you are a subscriber of AirtelTigo Money, you can activate the offer by:

    • Dialling the short code *110# i.e. the AirtelTigo Money shortcode
    • After that, you need to select option 2 and then purchase the package for GH¢ 2 using your AirtelTigo Money wallet.

    Eligibility for the AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer

    There are no eligibility criteria, but only all prepaid subscribers of AirtelTigo can enjoy this package. Meaning, customers using postpaid and broadband cannot benefit from this amazing package.

    However, a subscriber must make the first call within the hours of validity (5 am to 10 am) once for a limited time period to trigger this offer.

    Conclusion

    The introduction of this offer is going to help customers especially those who make calls every morning to their friends and loved ones.

    If you are also not a call person like myself, you can use the SMS and free data package as well to do what you want to do with it during the validity hours of 5 and 10 am.

    AirtelTigo is a telecommunication network that was founded in 1990 and has been providing exemplary services since. AirtelTigo introduced their mobile money service in 2011 when one-half was still Tigo. Airtel Ghana and Tigo Ghana became a joint telco in 2017 to become the second-largest mobile operator. This service is one of the most convenient in the country.

Money-related issues are very damaging, especially if you created them yourself, but if it’s someone else’s fault, you’ll at least be less stressed.

    That’s why AirtelTigo introduced registration via WhatsApp, where you send them a text and follow the steps to get registered. Below are the steps to get your SIM/Phone Number registered for “AirtelTigo Money” via WhatsApp.

    AirtelTigo’s Morning Rush Data is a set of data plans from the telco that give subscribers data of 1 GB and 2.5GB when they subscribe for GHS 1 and GHS 2 respectively. This data expires after 24 hours. This 24-hour validity is explained below:

    If an AirtelTigo Subscriber activates the bundle any time before 4:00 am, the available data could be used between 4:00 am to 7:00 am of that day. But for instance, if an AirtelTigo Subscriber activates the bundle at 4:45 am, the available data could be used between 4:45 am to 7:00 am of that day (Morning Rush hours), and the remaining data can be used within 24 hours, that is between 4:00 am to 4:44 am of the following day. 

    How to subscribe to AirtelTigo Morning Rush Data Bundle

    To subscribe to the Morning Rush Data Bundle by AirtelTigo, follow the steps below:

    1. Dial *111# on your device
    2. Select option 4
    3. Select Morning Rush Data
    4. Select amount (GHS 1 or GHS 2)
    5. Confirm your subscribtion
    6. You will receive a confirmation of the purchased data.

    Once you receive the confirmation, you can use the data during the Morning Rush validity period.

    Subscribers who have the AirtelTigo app can alternatively subscribe to the Morning Rush Data on the app.

    Conclusion

    The Morning Rush Data bundle by AirtelTigo could be used for downloading information needed during the day or for backing up WhatsApp or simply updating mobile apps.

    How to Register for AirtelTigo Money RetireRite Pension

    As an active worker, one of the most important things you could do is to save money for your retirement. The traditional way of saving for your retirement involves a long process especially when you are trying to access your funds after retirement.

    Therefore, the introduction of technology in the saving of money towards your retirement is a very good initiative. This introduction is going to make your retirement savings easier to access and convenient.

    In view of this, AirtelTigo in partnership with the People’s Pension Trust (PPT) has introduced a tier 3 personal mobile pension scheme in addition to a savings account called RetireRite. This scheme is aimed at helping customers of AirtelTigo Money to live a peaceful financially independent pension life.

    Before you decide to register, there are some things you need to know and in this article we are going to show you all that you need to know so keep reading.

    What is RetireRite?

    RetireRite is a mobile pension scheme that allows subscribed AirtelTigo customers to make monthly contributions towards their retirement with as low as GH¢ 1. The scheme comprises of a pension account and a savings account.

    How does RetireRite work?

    Once you register, all the contributions you make will be disbursed equally into the two accounts, i.e. the savings and the pension accounts.

    With the savings account, you can withdraw up to 50% of your contributions six months after your initial deposit with the available interest.

    If a customer decides to stop contributing, he or she can only access their pension funds at age 60; depending on the date of birth of the ID you used for the registration of the SIM card.

    Should in case of a customer pass away, there’s a life bonus cover to ensure that the beneficiaries of the deceased customer receive up to four times the total contributions made by the deceased in the previous calendar year.

    Meaning, if the deceased made a total contribution of GH¢ 100 in the previous calendar year, the beneficiaries can receive up to GH¢ 400.

    The most interesting thing about this package is that no matter your occupation you can still contribute every month with the little amount you have on you.

    There’s no minimum age for registering but before you can subscribe to the AirtelTigo RetireRite, you need to be a subscribed customer on AirtelTigo Money.

    How to Register for AirtelTigo Money RetireRite Pension Scheme

    You can register for the AirtelTigo Money RetireRite pension scheme using the steps below:

    1. Dial *110#
    2. Select Pay Bill (option 4)
    3. Select Insurance & Pension (option 6)
    4. Select RetireRite (option 1)
    5. Select Register (option 1)

    Conclusion

    Most people don’t find a pension saving a profitable initiative because they don’t know where to invest their money or based on what they hear from other people.

    But from the explanation given by AirtelTigo and the People Pension’s Trust, this is a very good initiative but you need to be willing to contribute consistently (every month) before you decide to sign up on this scheme.

    Please share this post with your friends and relatives because there might be someone looking for such an initiative.

    How to Register For AirtelTigo Money

    There may be days that you desperately need money but going to the bank for such money sometimes seems awful and weird. For example, travelling all the way to the bank to withdraw GH¢ 10 could be a waste of time.

    With the introduction of technology into financial transactions, the need for physical cash when doing a transaction is now very low as compared to what it used to be some years ago. It is the intention of tech and financial experts to see Ghana in the near future migrating to almost 80% cashless when doing transactions.

    In view of that, AirtelTigo has collaborated with the Bank of Ghana to introduce a mobile money service called AirtelTigo Money. This service allows subscribed customers to make withdrawal, deposit, send and receive money from all networks all through their mobile phone.

    In recent additions, subscribed customers can receive money from international transfers as well.

    What is AirtelTigo Money?

    AirtelTigo Money is a mobile financial service that allows all subscribed AirtelTigo customers to send, receive money. It also allows the customers to buy airtime, pay bills, and pay for goods and services right on their mobile phone. The activities of this service are monitored by the Bank of Ghana and therefore there’s no need to be scared of using this service.

    There are two ways of registering for AirtelTigo Money. We have Office registration and Self-registration.

    How to register for AirtelTigo Money at the Office

    For this option, you can simply visit any AirtelTigo office nationwide with a valid national photo identification document (Ghana card, Voters ID, Drivers’ license or passport).

    A merchant will take your details and then ask you to create a 4-digit secret PIN which you will use to make transactions. Upon completion, a welcome message will be sent to your phone via SMS.

    How to self-register for AirtelTigo Money via WhatsApp

    The Self-Registration option is very useful in this COVID-19 pandemic era. Under this category, you can choose to register using USSD or Whatsapp without leaving your house.

    To use WhatsApp to register, you just need to send “Hi” to the official Whatsapp number 0577000084 to begin the process. You will be asked to provide the following:

    • Picture of your valid ID card (should be the same as the one you used to register your sim card)
    • Date of birth (should correspond with the one on your ID card)
    • Location and
    • Your AirtelTigo number

    How to Register for AirtelTigo Money by via USSD

    Initially before Airtel and Tigo became one company, this feature was available, but after they became one company this feature is no longer available.

    But it’s our hope that they might some day re-introduce this feature again.

    Therefore, if you are not having a smartphone, you need to do the Office Registration.

    Conclusion

    The steps for registration is very easy and quick so you can easily follow along and register for the service.

    After you receive the confirmation SMS, you can receive or send money or buy airtime or pay for goods and services right on your mobile phone.

    Please be aware of fraudulent persons who impersonate AirtelTigo to claim money from customers. AirtelTigo will never demand money from you through an agent or an employee, all official items will be sent to you via SMS with the assigned name AirtelTigo Money.

    Please stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity or persons on your account. I hope the guide above serves its purpose.
