While it’s important to link your Bank Verification Number (BVN) to your 9mobile line, there’s no specific “BVN code” just for 9mobile. Here’s what you need to know:
What is a BVN?
Your BVN is a unique 11-digit number assigned to you during biometric banking registration.
It acts as a universal identification number across all Nigerian financial institutions.
Why Link BVN to 9mobile?
- Government Regulation: The Nigerian government mandates linking your BVN to all your SIM cards to improve security and reduce fraud.
How to Link Your BVN to 9mobile
There are a few easy ways:
- USSD code:
- Dial *996# on your 9mobile line.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to link your NIN. This process might involve providing your BVN directly or verifying it’s already linked.
- 9mobile website:
- Visit 9mobile’s NIN linking portal: https://nin.9mobile.com.ng
- Enter your 9mobile number and your BVN.
- In-person at a 9mobile Experience Center:
- Visit a 9mobile store and provide your BVN to an agent for linking.
Important Notes
- Have Your BVN Handy: Make sure you know your BVN before starting the linking process. If you don’t remember it, dial 5650# (this may incur a small fee).
- Universal Code for Checking BVN: The code 5650# works across all networks (9mobile, MTN, Airtel, Glo) to retrieve your BVN.
Conclusion
There isn’t a BVN code specifically for 9mobile. However, linking your BVN to your 9mobile line is a crucial step to comply with regulations. Use the universal BVN code to check your number if needed and then follow the linking methods described above.
