How to Transfer mb from airtel to airtel

Do you want to know how to transfer data or mb from airtel to airtel? I’m sure you probably have friends that always run out of mb and always disturb you to switch on hotspot for them or share mb to them. Especially if you’re an internet freak like me that can never run out of mb no matter the situation lol.

Switching on hotspot for your friends can be stressing sometimes because you always have to be on a close range with them and most times it drains your battery and if you’re not careful other nearby people will also connect and drain your hard earned data at an instant without you knowing.

So it’s better to transfer or share data specifically to the people you want without having any unauthorized person intruding.

That’s why in this post I’m going to share with you how to transfer mb from airtel to airtel.
Staying without mb these days is very difficult and boring. You always have something to do online either you’re chatting or going through your timeline on social media or you’re watching videos on youtube or you’re streaming your favourite songs on spotify or you’re playing hd games online or your watching netflix etc. the list is endless.

If you know how important data is you wouldn’t want your friends to be left out especially when they’re out of cash to purchase data.

Sharing mb and transferring mb are two different things. The aforementioned is how to transfer mb from airtel to airtel but for your family and friends that uses heavy data you can’t transfer data to them you can only share or gift data to them.

Airtel smartshare allows you to share data plans with family and friends on the airtel network. There are two ways of doing this

Airtel Data Gifting

You might have come across these two words several times but don’t know what it means. Data gifting simply means buying data bundle for your family or friends right from your own sim and account.

If your family or friends run out of data you can buy them another airtel data bundle from your own sim and the airtime price for that data plan will be deducted from your own airtime.

It’s just like when you’re subscribing for an airtel data plan but this time it’s going to another person and not to you.

If you don’t have any data to share or transfer to your family and friends you can gift them data from one of the airtel data plans and pay from your airtime.

How to gift data on airtel

• To gift data on airtel simply dial *141# using your airtel sim
• Select 6 (data gifting & sharing)
• then select 2 (data gifting)
• Select the data plan you want (monthly, weekly, daily etc)
• Enter the recipient’s number
• Enter your pin
• Send

The second one is

Airtel Data Me2U

This simply means sharing your own data bundle with another person. The person you’re sharing your data plan with will have access to the internet in their own device no matter where they are as long as you have data.

If you don’t have enough airtime to gift data to your family and friends you can share data with them from your own data plan if you have enough.

Airtel me2u made it in a way that you can only share your data with four people at a time and the must be added to your airtel family list.

Note: You already have a default pin 1234 assigned to you for your data gifting and sharing but you wouldn’t want to use that right? Unless you want to be gifting and sharing your data with unauthorized persons, so I’d advise you to change your pin to your own personal pin you can remember.
