USSD is a service that allows mobile phone users to interact with a remote application
from their device in real-time. It is a highly scalable service as it does not require an internet
connection and is supported by both feature phones and smartphones.
A shared USSD code will be raised on MTN and Airtel (It's immediate ).
A dedicated USSD code will be raised on MTN and Airtel.
We offer USSD services in two options:
1. Shared USSD: This option, which is shared with other users but provides a unique extension, is available in both prepaid and postpaid. With prepaid, the end user is charged the session costs. With postpaid, you are charged the session costs, making it a toll-free service for end users.
2. Dedicated USSD: You can acquire a dedicated USSD directly from the Uganda Communications Commission. Once acquired, we can assist you with telco setups and Africa's Talking integration. Please let us know which option you prefer or if you have any questions. We're happy to help.
Attached is the rate card for both options.
