Frequently asked questions

How much does 1GB of data cost in Nigeria?

It varies widely by plan size and validity. Large monthly bundles typically work out far cheaper per GB than daily or weekly bundles, which is why the small plans feel affordable and are not.

How many GB do I need per month?

Light browsing and messaging run about 2–5GB. Regular video streaming at standard quality adds roughly 1GB per hour, so a household streaming an hour a night needs 30GB or more.
