|---|---|---|

| ~3.99 | ~489 MB | 1 day |
| ~5.99 | ~796 MB | 1 day |
MTN sometimes offers discounted prices for these bundles based on promotions, meaning you may pay less than the base price.
2. Daily Data Bundles
Daily bundles are designed for users who need internet access only for a day. While MTN’s official tariff list does not itemise every daily bundle individually, typical popular daily data plans seen on many Ghanaian telecom listings include:
| Daily Bundle | Approx Price (GHS) | Data Volume | Validity |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 MB | ~0.50 – 1.00 | 50 MB | 1 day |
| 120 MB | ~1.50 – 2.00 | 120 MB | 1 day |
| 500 MB | ~3.00 | 500 MB | 1 day |
| 1 GB | ~5.00 | 1 GB | 1 day |
Note: These values are representative averages; exact amounts may vary by platform and active promotions.
3. Weekly Data Bundles
Weekly bundles are ideal for users who need internet throughout a week without committing to a full monthly plan. Common weekly bundles include:
| Weekly Plan | Approx Price (GHS) | Data Volume | Validity |
|---|---|---|---|
| 180 MB | ~3 GHS | 180 MB | 7 days |
| 300 MB | ~5 GHS | 300 MB | 7 days |
| 1 GB | ~10 GHS | 1 GB | 7 days |
| 400 MB | ~3 GHS | 400 MB | 7 days |
These options are helpful for students, casual browsers, and short-term usage needs.
4. Monthly Data Bundles
Monthly bundles offer larger volumes for consistent everyday use over 30 days. These are some of the most common plans:
| Monthly Plan | Price (GHS) | Data Volume | Validity |
|---|---|---|---|
| ~10 GHS | ~10 | ~1 GB | 30 days |
| ~20 GHS | ~20 | ~2.5 GB | 30 days |
| ~40 GHS | ~40 | ~5 GB | 30 days |
| ~60 GHS | ~60 | ~10 GB | 30 days |
| ~80 GHS | ~80 | ~15 GB | 30 days |
| ~350 GHS | ~350 | ~92 GB | 30 days |
| ~399 GHS | ~399 | ~200 GB | 30 days |
The larger bundles are best for heavy data users — for example, streaming video, remote work, or frequent downloads.
5. Special and Event-Based Bundles
MTN periodically offers special or promotional bundles, such as reduced-price plans for holidays or special events (e.g., Valentine’s Day bundles). These packages often combine call minutes, SMS, and data at promotional prices for a limited time.
Examples include:
-
Kokrokoo — Early morning data at charitable prices (data usable early hours).
-
Sunday Specials — Bundles with voice, SMS, and sometimes data at discounted rates.
Availability and pricing vary based on MTN promotions active at any given time.
6. Social Media or OTT Bundles
MTN also offers specialised data bundles for specific platforms:
-
Social Media Bundles — Data for apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram.
-
Video Bundles — Usually low cost (often under GHS1 up to GHS5) for limited video streaming data.
These bundles offer targeted access, cheaper than general data plans if you use only specific apps.
7. Fibre & TurboNet Data Bundles
While this guide focuses on mobile prepaid bundles, for completeness:
-
MTN Fibre Broadband plans offer fixed broadband data on a subscription basis separate from mobile SIM plans. These plans vary by speed and often include unlimited usage options.
-
TurboNet (portable 4G/5G router) bundles offer larger data volumes at higher prices (e.g., 4–10 GB and up).
These are generally purchased via USSD (*5057#) or the myMTN app and are ideal for home or business internet access.
