9mobile Data Plan Codes: Complete Guide to Activation & Prices in 2025

As a 9mobile user, subscribing to the right data plan is now easier and more unified than ever. The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has introduced a single USSD code, *312#, for buying data across all mobile networks, including 9mobile. To activate any 9mobile data plan, simply dial *312#, select “Data Plans” from the menu, then choose your preferred bundle—daily, weekly, monthly, night, or social—and confirm your purchase. This makes subscribing and managing your data much faster and more intuitive.

You can also visit 9mobile’s official data page to see a full breakdown of current bundles and activation details.

If you prefer direct activation, below are updated USSD codes for 9mobile’s most popular data packages. For daily and weekly plans, you can dial 31238# for 50MB at ₦50, 31231# for 100MB plus free social media access at ₦100, or 31232# for 650MB at ₦200. Users who need a quick 1GB plan for a day can dial 31233# for ₦300. For a 3-day bundle, try 2GB + social at ₦500 with 31234#, and for a 7-day bundle, dial 31221# to get 1GB plus social access at ₦500.

Monthly plans are more cost-effective for frequent users. You can get 500MB at ₦500 with 312212#, or enjoy a balanced package of 4.2GB (2GB + 2.2GB night) at ₦1,000 by dialing 31227#. For 6.5GB (2.5GB + 4GB night), dial 312225# at ₦1,200. Need more? Try 11GB (7GB + 4GB night) at ₦2,500 with 312216#, or go big with 50GB at ₦10,000 using 31241#. For media-heavy users, 125GB at ₦20,000 is available via 31226#. These plans support rollover if you renew before expiry and also auto-renew if you don’t opt out.

Off-peak and weekend users can enjoy more savings. The night plan of 1GB from 11pm–5am costs ₦200 and is activated with 312311# (ensure you’re on the MoreCliq tariff plan first). Weekend bundles include 1GB at ₦500 using 312312# or a richer 2GB + social access for ₦1,000 with 3123*13#. These plans are valid Fridays to Sundays and in some cases during evening hours.

For users primarily on social media or video platforms, 9mobile SmartPaks are a great fit. The Chat Pak allows access to WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger and is available daily at ₦50, weekly at ₦150, or monthly at ₦400 using 34355# or 34356#. SocialMe Pak, which includes Instagram, Twitter, and WhatsApp, can be activated through 34367# or 34368# depending on your plan. Video Pak options start from 2 hours for ₦500 via 2293*5# or 2531#, up to 90 hours with 2538#.

To check your remaining balance at any time, dial *323#. To stop auto-renewal of your current plan, send “STOP” to 229 or navigate the data menu via *312# and disable the option manually.

Using the new *312# USSD code simplifies everything. It replaces all legacy codes like *229# and ensures consistency across all network providers. This is especially useful for users who previously struggled with remembering multiple codes for different plans.

Always confirm you’ve dialed the correct code before subscribing. If you don’t receive confirmation after activating a plan, retry after a few minutes or contact support via 9mobile customer care. If you're unsure about your current plan or data behavior, consider switching to a rollover-enabled bundle or one that aligns better with your daily usage pattern.

For flexible browsing and social media usage, 9mobile’s updated data plans under the *312# system give you better control, more options, and affordable pricing. Whether it’s short-term access or long-term streaming, you now have the tools to manage your mobile internet experience with ease.
