A number of people have asked us how to transfer their Econet airtime to another number.
Many have said that a method they used to rely on (sending a message to 31117) doesn’t work anymore. Other have complained that they are asked for a pin when they use the new method *111#.
For the sake of simplicity, we show here how to easily transfer airtime if you’re an Econet subscriber.
First, you are required to create what Econet calls a Self Care account before you’re able to start transferring airtime.
These are the steps to create the account:
- Dial *111#
- Select Option 1: My Account
- Follow prompts to create a 4-digit pin. You will need that pin whenever you are transferring airtime.
These are the steps to transfer the airtime:
- 250Dial *111#
- You will see the menu below. Select option 3. Transfer Airtime
- You will now be asked for that pin you chose above. Enter it
- After tapping on “send” you will be asked to enter the receiving number.
- Next you will then enter the amount of airtime to be transferred. Note that the minimum amount of airtime to be transferred is $1. There’s also a daily maximum limit.

i do the above info bt still it is denying me the access to transfer the airtym.it says error in processing
Option doesn’t work, soon after registration once you try to send airtime the system asks for a pin and rejects the same pin that you put.
still the above method is not working. soon after setting the PIN asked a simple word when forgot PIN still denying saying wrong PIN.
This application doesn’t work after entering my pin,the recipient number and the amount it’s still saying error while processing
