Local and International Credit/Data Transfer Made Easy:

Are you an Etisalat user? Whether on a prepaid (Wasel or FIVE) or postpaid plan, you can share the love with others through credit and data transfers! Here’s how you can make the most of these services:

  • Local credit transfer:
    • Suppose you’re a Wasel (prepaid) or postpaid user with an active account. In that case, you can easily transfer credit to other prepaid Etisalat numbers within your country.
  • International credit and data transfer:
    • This is perfect for those who want to send some help back home or to friends abroad. Both prepaid (Wasel and FIVE sim) and postpaid users can transfer credit or data to prepaid accounts in select countries overseas.
  • Request for credit service:
    • Running low on credit? Prepaid users can quickly request credit through this handy service.

Data balance credit transfer from Etisalat to Etisalat

Did you know you can also transfer data balance? Yes, that’s right! Etisalat allows you to share your data with friends and family, ensuring they’re never left out of the loop.

Benefits of data sharing:

  • Quick and easy: Sharing your data is fast, simple, and flexible.
  • Share as much as you like: You can share in multiples of 100MB. If you’re using a prepaid plan, there’s no limit to how much you can share. Postpaid users can share up to 5GB per transfer.
  • Affordable: It costs AED 3 for every 100MB you share. This fee is either taken from your balance or added to your monthly bill.
  • Monthly sharing cap: You can make up to 5 monthly data transfers if your plan is 1GB or above.
  • Data validity: The data you share lasts ten days and is used before your regular data allowance.
  • Minimum balance: Ensure you have at least 100MB left after sharing.

How to share data:

You can share data using any of these methods:

  • My Etisalat UAE App: Download and use the My Etisalat UAE app for an easy transfer experience.
  • Dial a code: Simply dial #100*Receiver-Number*Data-in-MB#. For example, to send 1GB, dial #100*05XXXXXXXX*1000#.
  • Quick dial: Just dial #100# to start the transfer process.

Tracking your data:

If you’re receiving data, you can keep an eye on your usage in a few ways:

  • My Etisalat UAE App: Use the app to monitor your data balance.
  • Dial a code: Check your data by dialling *121*170#.

Important tips:

  • Notifications: As a receiver, you’ll get an SMS alert when you’ve used all the shared data.
  • No surprise bills: Once the shared data is used up, you won’t be able to access data outside your plan, preventing unexpected charges.

International Etisalat Credit Transfer

As an Etisalat by e& customer, you can keep in touch with your loved ones, business partners, and family members by transferring credit to their prepaid numbers abroad or recharging your prepaid account in the UAE. This service is especially handy for visitors with an Etisalat by e& prepaid account, allowing you to make the most out of any unused credit by recharging a prepaid account back in your home country.

  • Speed: Instantly transfer airtime across borders without any hassle.

How to transfer:

  • Text the international prepaid number (e.g., 9198XXXXXXXX) to 1700 (this service is free).

Fees or charges:

  • After sending the international number, you’ll receive a message detailing the available credit denominations for the destination country and their corresponding charges in AED for your confirmation. There are no hidden fees.

Remember:

  • Ensure you have enough balance in your Wasel account or a valid postpaid account to initiate a transaction.

    • For prepaid users, the minimum is also AED 2, but you can send up to AED 150 daily or AED 1,500 monthly.
