Some months back we shared with you Airtel exclusive family plan, and now MTN has introduced it’s own exclusive family data plan.
MTN Family data plan, subscriber can share their data plan with up to five additional mtn subscribers, giving them the liberty to allocate the volume of data each subscriber gets, with an option to also allow unlimited data limits.
As a sponsor, you’ll be able to set usage limits for each beneficiary while all the usages will be deducted from the sponsor’s account. The sponsor will also get FREE 500MB for each beneficiary added and enjoy FREE complimentary 50 minutes and 100 SMS’ for every Family Pack bundle activated to communicate with the beneficiaries.
Who Can Subscribe?
All MTN customers can subscribe to the Family Pack but none can act as sponsors and beneficiaries at the same time. Any MTN customer can become a sponsor anytime they activate the Family Pack or become beneficiaries anytime they are added as a beneficiary by another line (sponsor).
