How to share data on Airtel – Nigeria
Airtel allows you to share a data plan with family and friends across phones, tablets, and laptops. Here are two ways to share an Airtel data plan:
Data Me2U (aka Data Share):
You can “share” or “transfer” from the data allowance of an already purchased data bundle to another customer. For example, if you have purchased a 1.5GB Monthly, you can transfer 100MB to another customer.
