Cheap MTN Data: ₦200 MoMo 1GB Has Ended, Cheapest 1GB Now

MoMo's ₦200 for 1GB deal has ended, as at 16 October 2026. The cheapest MTN gigabyte now is MTN's own 1GB Smart Bundle at ₦200 for 24 hours, sold only in the myMTN NG app for your own line. For a full week, AidaPay sells MTN 1GB for ₦400 with ₦4 cashback.

If you want cheap MTN data for someone else, the AidaPay plan goes to any MTN number, and you don't need a MoMo wallet or the myMTN NG app to send it.

What happened to the ₦200 MoMo deal

The MoMo Special Bundle gave you a gigabyte for ₦200, paid from a MoMo PSB wallet. It was a daily plan that only worked on your own MTN line, and you couldn't share it or send it to anyone else.

That deal is over. The old code, *671*200*1#, no longer works for it, so delete it from your notes before you dial it again at month-end, when sapa is already knocking.

If ₦200 for a day is what you were after, MTN's own 1GB Smart Bundle costs the same and lasts 24 hours. It is a separate MTN plan, sold only in the myMTN NG app, and you can't pay for it from a MoMo wallet.

MTN data plan 200 for 1GB: how to get it now

The Smart Bundle sits only in the myMTN NG app. You won't find it in the text menu.

1. Log in to the myMTN NG app with the MTN number that should get the data.
2. Open the data section and pick the Smart Bundle.
3. Pay and confirm.
4. Dial *323*4# to check that the data has landed.

It lasts one day. Only buy it on a day you'll use most of it, and if the bundle isn't in your app, the next cheapest daily plan is in the table above.

Is there an MTN ₦200 for 1GB code for 7 days?

No. The ₦200 price is only for a one-day bundle, and no MTN plan gives you a week of data for that money.

MTN's own weekly gigabyte costs ₦800, and its text code is in the table above. AidaPay's weekly gigabyte costs half that, with cashback on top.

Daily or weekly: which MTN 1GB should you buy?

Match the plan to your real use. A cheap gigabyte you don't finish costs more than a pricier one you do.

Heavy daily user on your own line

You stream, sell on WhatsApp all day or live on TikTok, and the gigabyte is gone before evening. The Smart Bundle suits you. Buy it only on busy days.

Light user who needs 1GB to last a week

You load data on Monday and mostly use WhatsApp and your bank app, so one gigabyte covers your whole week.

Here's the worked example. Buying the ₦200 bundle every day for a week costs ₦1,400. The AidaPay weekly plan covers the same seven days for ₦400, with ₦4 cashback, so ₦1,000 stays in your pocket for transport or a plate of rice.

If you'll be online on three or more days and one gigabyte in total is enough, take the weekly plan.

Buying for a child, parent or staff member

The Smart Bundle can't do this. It only goes to the line logged into the app, and to send data to your mum, your child or your shop assistant, you need an app that sends MTN data to any number. If you're still choosing one, here are the cheapest data apps in Nigeria compared.

For a teenager who should stretch data across the month, the AidaPay monthly 2GB plan works as a cap. A staff member who needs WhatsApp all week is better off with one weekly plan than with cash every morning.

How to buy cheap MTN data for another number on AidaPay

No MoMo account needed. The steps match on the app and the website.

1. Fund your AidaPay wallet by bank transfer or card.
2. Open Data, tap MTN and type the number, for example 0803XXXXXXX.
3. Choose the plan and check the price and cashback on the confirmation screen.
4. Confirm with your PIN.

Read the number twice before you confirm. Once the data lands, the line's owner can dial *323*4# to see it with the expiry date. The MTN data balance codes guide covers the rest.

Other ways to cut your MTN data bill

Two habits help as much as picking the right plan.

Match validity to how you actually use data

Look back at last month. If you used data heavily on most days, a daily plan fits. If your use was light and spread out, a weekly or monthly plan costs less.

Stop data leaks

Set app updates and photo backups to Wi-Fi only. Turn off video autoplay in WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram, or your data finishes faster than jollof at a party.

Your next step is simple. If you use a full gigabyte most days, get the Smart Bundle in the myMTN NG app. If you're a light user or you're buying for someone else, buy MTN data on AidaPay and pick the weekly plan.
