KAMPALA | NOW THEN DIGITAL  — MTN Uganda has introduced a new service called MoMo Advance, a mobile overdraft service, following the success of Safaricom MPESA Fuliza. 

  • This service is offered by MTN Mobile Money Uganda and NCBA Bank Uganda to MTN customers. The service is not a loan, but rather a cash overdraft. This service enables customers to perform transactions above the balance in their MoMo wallet.
  • Another great aspect of MTN Momo Advance is that it functions similarly to an ATM. You’ll only be charged 2.75% of the advance amount each time you use it.
  • Read also: We recommend that you read this review before downloading the MTN MoMo app.

MoMo Advance is a collaboration between MTN Mobile Money Uganda and NCBA Bank Uganda, which runs the Fuliza overdraft service in partnership with Safaricom. 

The service allows MTN mobile money subscribers to access advance MoMo funds. The new service follows a successful pilot program that reached 135,000 subscribers.

With it, users can complete everyday transactions. The good thing about this service is that you don’t have to re-apply to use it. 

It is always available, so you can use it whenever you need it. Just make sure you don’t leave your other loans unpaid.

Another great feature of MTN Momo Advance is that it works in a similar way to an ATM. Activation of the service is free, and you’ll only pay 2.75% of the advance amount each time you use it. 

After that, you’ll receive an SMS confirming your limit and receiving a compensation SMS. 

MoMoAdvance is available for both consumers and business customers. The service offers flexible repayment options, too.

MoMoAdvance is available for all MTN customers with 6 months of Mobile Money usage. It’s also open to MTN MoMo Agents, SMEs, corporate clients, and merchants. 

It allows customers to make purchases without a worry of being unable to pay later. 

Customers with MoMo can use MoMoAdvance for bills and to pay for unexpected expenses. However, this service requires an approved credit limit and a credit history.

Activating MoMo Advance is free

The new MTN Uganda Momo Advance service allows mobile money users to access overdraft facilities. 

This facility extends the amount of money in your MoMo wallet for everyday transactions. In order to activate this feature, simply dial *165*5*3# and follow the prompts. 

To use Momo Advance, you must increase your mobile money wallet activities. Besides, it is recommended that you do not leave any unpaid loans on your account.

Customers can use this service to transact beyond their MoMo wallet balance, but still pay off the outstanding amount later. 

The new service borrows heavily from the successful Fuliza service operated by Safaricom, which allows subscribers to complete transactions even when they do not have enough money in their M-Pesa mobile wallets. 

The service has a 45-day maturity. Customers can avail of it without delay. For more information, visit the official website of MTN Uganda.

Activating MoMo Advance is free. Then, you need to satisfy the credit scoring requirements for the new service. 

If you meet the requirements, you will receive a limit message from MTN, along with a compensation SMS. You can also use the MoMoAdvance for bill payments and other mobile money transactions. 

In addition to personal usage, MoMoAdvance is also available to merchants, SMEs, and corporate users.

MTN MoMo cards are now available in Uganda, and customers can use the virtual cards to shop online or at global outlets. 

This service has boosted the number of people connected to mobile money in Uganda. 

The MoMo card is linked to an account on MTN Uganda. Users can access the service using a mobile phone by dialling *165#. The service is available for both MTN MoMo and MTN Money.

The process of applying for an MTN Uganda MoMo advance is very simple and free. If you have at least six months of MoMo service, you’ll be able to apply for the service.

MoMoAdvance works by allowing you to send and receive money from friends and family. You can also use it to pay bills or other expenses through MoMoPay. You can only use the money up to the limit of your advance.

MTN’s partnership with Flutterwave is a win-win situation for both companies. The technology company is a fintech company that offers a secure mobile wallet and enables electronic transfers and payments. 

By 2022, the African e-commerce market is expected to reach $29 billion. In addition, MTN is granting third-party developers and programmers access to its MoMo API platform. 

This opens the door to a wider range of digital financial services for MTN customers.

Once approved, customers should be regular MTN Mobile Money users. They must also meet the credit scoring requirements. Once approved, a limit message will appear in their account with a compensation SMS. 

MTN Uganda and NCBA are expected to establish partnerships in Rwanda and Tanzania to offer MoMoAdvance credit. If you’re looking to get started on MoMoAdvance, you’ve come to the right place.
