Ghana: MTN Encourages Customers to Use MTN Web Portal to Expedite SIM Registration Process

MTN Ghana has urged customers who are yet to register their SIM cards to make use of its dedicated MTN SIM Registration Web Portal to complete their registration ahead of the July 31, 2022 deadline.

A statement issued by the company in Accra said the SIM Registration Web Portal would enable customers to link their Ghana cards to their SIM cards before visiting the service centre or any authorised agent point for the biometric capture.

The portal provides customers with a web version of the USSD process (*404#) for the linking of customers' Ghana card to their SIM Card(s).

The portal allows customers to also link their Data-Only SIM card(s) to their Ghana card without having to remove their SIM Card(s) from their devices.

The portal links SIM cards in routers, MIFIs, TurboNets, security cameras, tracking devices and other non-mobile phone devices.

Commenting on the portal, the Chief Sales and Distribution Officer, ShaibuHaruna, said "As we draw close to the July 31 deadline for the SIM Registration exercise, we are employing all channels to ensure every customer on our network is fully registered. This is why we are encouraging our customers to use the MTN SIM Registration Web Portal to expedite the process".

The web portal is also a channel for customers with Know Your Customer (KYC) issues such as name mismatch to be able to upload images of their proof of ownership documents to establish their identity and ownership of SIM card(s). Individual and Corporate post-paid lines can also use the portal to link their SIM Card(s) to the Ghana Card.

MTN Ghana, as part of the ongoing SIM Registration Exercise, developed the web portal to enhance and speed up the registration process for both voice and data SIM cards.
