Direct answer

When GB is zero the operator app cannot load. USSD still buys data. That is the whole point of *714*22#. For anyone staring at “no internet” with MoMo in the wallet in Ghana in 2026.

Do this next

Dial *714*22# on Ewale when you need data, airtime, ECG, water, or TV — any MoMo wallet, no app.

*714*22# uses the signalling channel. When *226#, Power App, or Play Store fail, you can still buy data, airtime, ECG, and TV. If USSD itself fails, that is network congestion — retry once, do not double-PIN.

Field tips for buy data when bundle finished

  • Dial *714*22# → Data. Feature phones work.
  • MTN *138#, Telecel *700#, AT *111# are operator backups on their own SIMs.
  • If USSD times out, wait 30 seconds and retry once.
  • Keep GH₵10 MoMo float so you are never fully stuck.

What not to do

  • Do not pay a WhatsApp number that “tops up cheaper than MTN.”
  • Do not share MoMo PIN, OTP, or *713*414# codes with anyone.
  • Do not tap a second PIN because the first prompt “looked stuck” — check the mini-statement first.
