How to Check Glo Bonus Balance in Nigeria (2026): USSD Code and Easy Methods

Glo bonuses can sit separately from your normal airtime balance, so checking your main balance alone may not tell you how much bonus credit you have left. The quickest way to check an eligible Glo bonus is to use the USSD code available for that particular offer.

How to Check Glo Bonus Balance

For Glo’s current general bonus balance information, dial *310# from your Glo line and follow the information displayed.

  1. Open your phone dialer.
  2. Dial *310#.
  3. Send the request.
  4. Check the balance information displayed on your screen.

Some Glo promotions have their own bonus-checking method. For example, Glo’s electronic top-up 15% bonus can be checked with #122#. This is why the exact bonus offer on your line matters.

How to Check Glo E-Top Up 15% Bonus

If you received Glo’s 15% unconditional e-recharge bonus, dial #122# to check the dedicated bonus balance.

The bonus is associated with eligible electronic recharges and can be used for calls and SMS to Glo customers in Nigeria. Glo states that the bonus is separate from the main account balance.

How to Check Other Glo Bonuses

For some offers, the bonus information may appear when you check your account through Glo’s USSD menus or Glo Café. New-customer and promotional bonuses can have their own validity and usage rules.

For example, Glo’s current Welcome Bonus information says eligible new customers can check bonus balances by dialing *310#. The welcome bonus is time-limited, so do not assume that unused bonus credit remains available indefinitely.

Glo Bonus vs Main Airtime Balance

Balance What it means How to check
Main airtime Your normal rechargeable airtime balance *310#
General bonus information Bonus credit attached to an eligible offer *310#
E-Top Up 15% bonus Bonus from eligible electronic recharge #122#
Data balance Your active data bundles and applicable bonus data *323#

Can Glo Bonus Expire?

Yes. Glo promotional bonuses can have validity periods. The expiry depends on the specific offer, so check the message or terms attached to the bonus rather than assuming every bonus lasts for the same period.

Why Is My Glo Bonus Not Showing?

  • The bonus may have expired.
  • You may be checking the main balance instead of the promotional bonus balance.
  • The recharge or promotion may not have qualified for the bonus.
  • The offer may have a separate USSD code.
  • Your bonus may already have been used.

If you recently qualified for a bonus and it is still missing, check the confirmation SMS for the offer details and use Glo’s customer-service channels if necessary.

Can Glo Bonus Be Transferred?

Not every Glo bonus can be shared or transferred. Glo’s current E-Top Up 15% bonus, for example, is not shareable or transferable. Promotional bonuses can also have restrictions on what they can be used for.
