Glo offers a service called “Borrow Me Credit” that allows subscribers to borrow airtime and pay it back later. Here’s how you can do it:
1. Check Eligibility:
Before you can borrow airtime on Glo, you need to ensure that you meet the eligibility criteria. To check if you’re eligible, dial *321# on your Glo line.

2. Borrow Airtime:
Once you’re eligible, you can borrow airtime by following these steps:
- Dial *321*Amount# on your Glo line.
- [Amount]: Specify the amount of airtime you want to borrow (e.g., 321100# to borrow N100).
- You’ll receive a confirmation message indicating that your request for airtime has been granted, and the borrowed amount will be credited to your account.
3. Repayment:
When you borrow airtime from Glo, you’re essentially taking a loan that needs to be paid back. Glo will deduct the borrowed amount along with a service charge from your next recharge. The service charge varies depending on the borrowed amount.

To check the balance of the airtime you’ve borrowed from Glo, you can dial *321*8# on your Glo line.
