How To Send Money On MTN Using SaylorPay

Sending money on MTN with SaylorPay is fast, secure, and incredibly easy.
No need to memorize USSD codes, no internet connection required - you can complete your transfer in less than 30 seconds.

Follow these simple steps to send money on MTN using the SaylorPay app:

            Step 1: Open the SaylorPay App

Step 2: Enter or Select the Recipient’s Number

• Type in the recipient’s phone number manually or
• Choose the number directly from your phonebook.

Important Note on Ported SIMs:

SaylorPay detects the mobile network based on standard network prefixes:

• MTN: 053, 054, 055, 059, 024, 025
• Telecel: 020, 050
• AirtelTigo (Glo Ghana inclusive): 026, 027, 056, 057, 023

If the number has been ported to a different network, you must manually correct the network selection before proceeding.

Example:
If a number starts with 054 (MTN prefix) but has been ported to Telecel or AirtelTigo, SaylorPay will still detect it as MTN.
To avoid transaction errors, you must reselect the correct network manually.

Failing to do this may result in a failed transfer because the phone number is no longer on the MTN network, despite its prefix.

            Step 3: Enter the Amount

            Input the amount you wish to send.

Step 4: Add a Reference

Choose one of two options:

• Enter a custom reference manually
• Or tick the “Auto-generate Reference” checkbox to let SaylorPay generate a unique reference automatically.

            Step 5: Select the Network

            Choose “MTN” as the network to send money from.

Step 6: Initiate the Transfer

            Step 7: Enter Your Mobile Money PIN

            When prompted, enter your Mobile Money PIN to authorize and complete the transaction.

Done!
