Benin MoMo USSD Code: *880#
The MTN MoMo code in Benin is *880# — MTN Benin's own pages walk every operation through it: "Envoi d'argent" to send, "Solde" for balance, option 3 for airtime and bundles, and the MoMo Sayaaa savings product on *880*51#. Verified on my.mtn.bj, July 2026.

Forgot your MoMo PIN in Benin?
Dial *880# → "Mon compte" → "Auto réinitialiser PIN". MTN Benin's conditions are specific: balance between 1 F and 5,000 F and no transactions in the last 3 days. Outside those bounds, call or SMS 111, or use MTN Benin's WhatsApp line 62 62 00 00.
*880# not working?
Wrong SIM. The code only answers on the MTN Benin network. On another operator's SIM it fails or opens a different service — every country and operator has its own code.
Roaming (abroad). Most roaming partner networks do not relay USSD sessions: the code fails or times out outside the country. Use the MoMo app over data/Wi-Fi. To send from Europe to a MoMo wallet, MoMo Homeland is an app — there is no diaspora USSD code.
Account not registered. A MoMo wallet must be registered (with ID) before the menu accepts transactions. If the menu opens but blocks you, visit a MTN Benin service centre with your ID.
