| How to Roll Over Unused Data on MTN – Full Guide (2025) |
Ever bought an MTN data bundle but didn’t finish using it before it expired? Good news — MTN Nigeria offers a data rollover feature that allows you to keep your unused data as long as you renew on time. This guide explains how to roll over unused MTN data, the rules, and how to maximize your bundle usage.
What Is MTN Data Rollover?
MTN Data Rollover is a feature that lets you carry over unused data from your current bundle to the next one, provided you renew or buy another bundle before the old one expires.
This ensures your unused data is not wasted, giving you more value for your money.
How to Rollover Unused MTN Data – Step-by-Step
To activate data rollover, simply renew your bundle before it expires. Here’s how:
Option 1: Renew via USSD
- Dial
*312#on your MTN line - Choose 1 – Data Plans
- Select the same data plan (or a higher one)
- Confirm purchase
- Your unused data will automatically roll over with the new data
Option 2: Use the MyMTN App
- Download or open the MyMTN NG App
- Go to Buy Data
- Select and pay for a new bundle before your current one expires
- You’ll see your previous unused data added to your new balance
Important Rules for MTN Data Rollover
- You must renew before your current bundle expires
- Rollover works when you buy the same or bigger bundle
- Rollover does not apply to daily (24-hour) plans
- Data can only be rolled over once — if you don’t renew again, it expires
How Long Does Rollover Last?
The rolled-over data lasts for the validity of the new bundle you purchased. For example:
- If your expired bundle had 300MB left
- And you buy a 30-day bundle before it expires
- The 300MB will add to your new bundle and last for 30 more days
How to Check Rolled Over Data
To confirm your remaining (including rolled over) data:
- Dial
*323# - Or SMS “2” to 323
- Or check the MyMTN App dashboard
Example of MTN Data Rollover in Action
| Day | Action | Result |
|---|---|---|
| July 1 | Buy 1.5GB for 30 days | Bundle starts |
| July 29 | 500MB unused | Renew with 2GB plan |
| July 30 | 500MB + 2GB | Total balance becomes 2.5GB |
Tips to Maximize MTN Data Rollover
- Set a reminder to renew a day before expiry
- Always buy equal or higher bundle for rollover to work
- Avoid using auto-renewal if it fails to trigger before expiry — manually renew a few hours early
- Monitor expiry dates using
*323#
