To enhance subscribers’ experience on its network, the next
generation network, Globacom, has partnered with 15 banks
to launch a unified short code for customers to purchase Glo airtime at anytime from banks in the partnership.
According to Globacom, the unified USSD short code *805# will give subscribers who have accounts with any of the 15 partnering banks a seamless opportunity to top up their airtime with money from their bank accounts at any time of the day, whether locally or while roaming.
“The unified short code is designed to make life easier for our
esteemed subscribers as it is simple and easy to remember,” said Globacom.
The partnering banks include First Bank, Ecobank, Zenith Bank, Access Bank, UBA, Union Bank, Stanbic IBTC Bank, Sterling Bank and IBTC Bank.
Others are FCMB, Heritage Bank, Keystone Bank, Skye Bank, Unity Bank and Jaiz Bank.
The network explained that it entered into the partnership with the
foremost banks in the country to enable Globacom customers purchase
airtime without any stress assuring its esteemed customers of “more
innovations that would enhance their experience on our network.”
The statement enjoined subscribers to register their Glo lines with
any of the partnering banks to enjoy the facility free of charge. It
added that the process of registering Glo lines with the banks is
easy, adding that all a subscriber needs to do is have his phone
provisioned by his bank for airtime quick recharge service which can
be done by dialing *805# and thereafter following the prompt by
selecting preferred bank and the amount of airtime for immediate
processing.
The new recharge code is sequel to the recent successful launch of Glo
Xchange (Super-Agent Network) designed to support the Central Bank of
Nigeria’s financial inclusion initiative and cashless policy.
