How to Check Glo Balance

Quick answer: Dial *310# to check your Glo airtime balance. Dial *323# to check your Glo data balance. Both codes work without mobile data or Wi-Fi.

Updated August 2026: These are the current balance codes shown on Glo’s official service pages. Older Glo codes may still appear in outdated articles, but the harmonized Nigerian short codes are the best place to start.

How to check your Glo airtime balance

  1. Open the Phone or Dialer app.
  2. Dial *310# from the Glo line you want to check.
  3. Press the call button.
  4. Read the balance shown on screen or in the follow-up message.

Glo currently documents *310# as its airtime or account-balance code on its official tariff page and its prepaid roaming page.

How to check your Glo data balance

The fastest method is to dial *323#. Your remaining data and available bundle information should appear on screen or arrive by message.

You can also text INFO to 312. Glo lists that SMS option in its Data Plans FAQ. If you have internet access, the Glo Café app or hsi.glo.com can provide another account view. Glo’s current Revised Data Bundles page confirms those data-balance methods.

How to check a Glo bonus balance

“Bonus balance” can mean bonus data, promotional airtime or a plan-specific reward, so one code does not necessarily describe every Glo offer.

  • Data and data bonuses: start with *323#. Review each balance and expiry date shown.
  • TalkMasta or eligible voice bonus: Glo’s TalkMasta 6 for 6 page documents *310*2# for that bonus balance.
  • Other plan-specific rewards: check the Glo Café app or contact Glo on 300 if the balance is not identified clearly.

Avoid relying on an old bonus code without checking which tariff or promotion it belongs to. Glo can change plan-specific menus even when the main balance codes stay the same.

Use the Glo Café app to view your account

Glo Café is Glo’s official self-service app. It can be useful when you want more than a quick USSD result, including account management, data purchases, recharge and support.

  1. Install Glo Café from the official app store for your phone.
  2. Register or sign in with your Glo number.
  3. Complete the one-time-password step sent to that number.
  4. Open the account or usage area to review the balances available for your line.

Why old Glo balance codes may not work

Nigerian mobile networks moved common services to harmonized short codes. Older webpages may still show retired short codes, while current Glo pages use *310# for airtime and *323# for data.

If an old code fails, do not keep retrying it. Use the current code, the official app or Glo support.

What to do when a Glo balance code is not working

  1. Confirm the active SIM. On a dual-SIM phone, make sure the request is being sent from the Glo line.
  2. Check your signal. Move to an area with service, wait briefly and try the code once more.
  3. Refresh the connection. Toggle airplane mode off and on, or restart the phone.
  4. Try the alternate method. For data, text INFO to 312. If you have internet access, use Glo Café.
  5. Contact Glo. Dial 300 if the code repeatedly fails or the displayed balance looks wrong.
