Step 1:
Get a NetNaira PERSONAL account by signing up on https://www.netnaira.com/sign_up.asp. A number of Nigerians already have this (if you do, skip this to step 2). NetNaira is acctually an electronic wallet. Click here to know more about NetNaira. It is free to register on NetNaira.com. Make sure you use your own mobile phone during the registration process – this will be the phone you will be using for your pin purchases.
Step 2:
Activate your phone. This is also free (at least at the time of this writing). All you need do is send the following text message to 07030003377
Activate your_netnaira_account_number
Replace your_netnaira_account_number with the account number you were sent when you signed up on NetNaira.com e.g.
Activate 1003p
You will instantly be sent a 4 digit mobile security pin. You will be using this pin for every transaction so memorise it.
Step 3:
Load your NetNaira account online with enough fund to make a pin purchase using an ATM card or NetNaira PINs sold by sellers. Start shopping on pinnigeria via SMS .
How to buy
To buy a N100 MTN recharge pin, all you need do is use the activated phone to send the following message to the same number (07030003377) and your pin will be sent back to your phone (if you have enough fund in your NetNaira account).
Buy mtn100 PINNG your_mobile_security_pin
Mtn100 refers to the product code for N100 mtn recharge
pinng is actually our (pinnigeria.com) store code as a NetNaira merchant
replace your_mobile_security_pin with the actual security pin netnaira sent to your phone
e.g. buy mtn100 pinng 2342
or
buy glo150 pinng 2342
The product codes for the various networks look like this
Multilinks - ML<phase_value> e.g. ML200
Zain – ZAIN<phase_value> e.g. ZAIN200
Zoom – ZOOM<phase_value> e.g. ZOOM200
The secrete to this is loading your NetNaira account with some fund. This fund could come in handy if you get stranded (I call this my emergency pin).
