To enjoy the faster speeds and improved connectivity of Glo’s 4G network, you’ll need a 4G-compatible SIM card. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to upgrade:
Step 1: Check Your Device Compatibility
- 4G-ready Phone: Ensure your phone supports 4G LTE networks. You can usually find this information in your phone’s settings or the manufacturer’s specifications.
Step 2: Verify Your Current SIM
- Look for 4G Markings: If your SIM card has “4G” or “LTE” printed on it, you likely already have a 4G SIM.
- No Markings? Time for an Upgrade: If your SIM is older and has no 4G markings, you’ll need to get a new one.

- A representative will assist you with the upgrade, usually free of charge.
- Text to Upgrade:
- Text “4G” to 400 from your Glo line.
- Follow the SMS instructions to confirm the upgrade and provide relevant details.
Step 4: Activate and Enjoy
- Insert New SIM: Once you get the new SIM, insert it into your 4G-compatible phone.
- Update Network Settings: Go to your phone’s network settings and select the 4G or LTE preferred network mode.
- Ready for Faster Speeds: You should now be able to experience Glo’s 4G network, if available in your area.
