| 2 | Search for myMTN and install the app published by MTN. |
| 3 | Open it and enter your MTN South Sudan number. |
| 4 | Wait for a confirmation code by SMS, then type it in. |

| 6 | Look at the home screen. Your balance and active bundles should appear. |
What the app is for
MTN built myMTN as a single place to manage your account. It covers balances, bundles, offers and digital services. MTN has also used the app to run weekly promotions, such as a Sunday offer that includes free access to MTN TV inside the app.
If you hate memorising short codes, the app is the easiest option. You tap, you read, you confirm.
Main things you can do
| Task | Where to look | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Check airtime balance | Home screen | Know what you can spend |
| See data bundles and expiry | Bundles area | Avoid losing unused data |
| Buy a bundle | Buy or offers area | No codes to remember |
| Turn off auto-renewal | Your bundle details | Stop unwanted deductions |
| See weekly offers | Offers or promotions area | Catch cheaper deals |
| Reach support | Help or contact area | Get a reference for complaints |
Keep your account safe
- Download the app only from your phone’s official store.
- Use a screen lock on your phone.
- Never share the confirmation code sent by SMS.
- Log out if you lend your phone to someone.
- Update the app so you get security fixes.
If an app asks for your MoMo PIN or your full ID photo on first launch, close it and uninstall it. Check the publisher name before you install.
Manage your bundles
Open the bundles area to see what is active and when it expires. Write down the expiry date, then decide whether you want to renew. If you do not need it again, turn off auto-renewal so your airtime is not taken without your knowledge.
- Open the app and tap your active bundle.
- Read the details, including the validity.
- Look for the renewal switch.
- Turn it off and confirm.
- Wait for the confirmation message.
Using the app with MoMo
MoMo has more than a million active users in South Sudan. Many people buy airtime and bundles with MoMo, and MTN has offered a bonus on those purchases. If the app lets you pay with MoMo, check the confirmation screen so you know exactly what you receive. Never type your MoMo PIN anywhere except the official prompt.
Account details to check
- The number shown on screen is the line you meant to manage.
- Your name matches the registration on your SIM, if the app shows it.
- Your active bundles are the ones you bought.
- Notification settings are on, so offers and alerts reach you.
Data cost of using the app
The app needs an internet connection. Ask customer care on 100 whether using the app consumes your data bundle or is free on your line, because policies can differ. If you have no bundle, use Wi-Fi to open the app or fall back on the MTN menu.
Common problems
Check your signal and your SMS storage. Wait a few minutes before asking for a new code.
Update it, restart the phone or reinstall. If you have an old phone, the app may not support your Android version.
Pull down to refresh, or compare with the MTN menu. If they differ, call 100.
Offers can depend on your line and your balance. For example, a Sunday offer may need a minimum airtime balance.
Check that your number has no spaces and is the MTN number in your phone.
Account management beyond the app
Some tasks still need a shop visit: SIM replacement, registration changes and certain MoMo problems. Bring a valid ID and your SIM. For anything else, the app, the MTN menu, WhatsApp support on 0920002200 and the phone line 100 are all open to you.
Questions people ask
Downloading from your store is free of charge from MTN, but your phone may use data to do it.
Check the app or ask customer care. Some apps keep one login per number.
No. You need a smartphone. Use the MTN menu on a basic phone.
Contact customer care. You can uninstall the app, but your SIM and wallet stay active.
Habits that save money
Open the app before you buy any bundle, check the offers, compare the price and expiry and turn off renewal if you do not need it. Two minutes in the app can protect your balance for weeks.
