📌 Proof of Transfer Requirement
💡 Because GLO does not always send SMS confirmations, clients must capture the popup success message showing:
- Recipient number
- Shared amount
- Success status
- Remaining balance (optional)
This screenshot acts as primary proof for converting airtime to cash. Airtime2Cash
If the popup was missed and there’s no confirmation visible to your conversion team, clients may need to contact Glo support to verify the transfer before payment can be processed. Airtime2Cash
📅 Operator Notes (For Airtime2Cash Use)
- Operators commonly use multiple SIMs to handle larger volumes of Glo airtime conversions due to the ₦25,000 limit per SIM per day. Airtime2Cash
- Ensure clients are aware of the requirement to screenshot the transfer success popup, especially because Glo rarely sends SMS notifications. Airtime2Cash
- Sharing should only be done to numbers provided by your conversion desk (WhatsApp contact).
