We will be directing you on how to link your NIN number successfully to your Airtel sim cards.
How to get your NIN number from the sim you enrolled with

To link your NIN to your Airtel phone number, follow the steps below:
- Dial *121# on the Airtel line you wish to link.
- Type 1 for “NIN Capture” and send
- Enter your 11-digit NIN and send.
Wait for the message confirming your submission. If you get an error, just wait for some time and try again.
