Direct answer

If rent includes GOtv, the landlord should hold the IUC and pay on Ewale. Tenants should not guess a previous occupant’s card. Written for landlords and live-in tenants in Ghana in 2026.

Fastest path

Recommended — Dial *714*22# → TV bills → GOtv. Pay with MoMo. No agent queue.

If the picture stays locked — wait for entitle, reseat the card, then see E16, E30, E48 before a second payment.

The wallet that pays does not need to sit next to the dish. Enter the household card number, confirm the name, forward the SMS if someone else must reboot the box.

What is different about landlord GOtv in rent

Write the IUC on the inventory list. Landlord dials *714*22# monthly. Tenants who pay “to help” must still confirm the name. Ownership name changes go to MultiChoice, not Ewale. Dead antenna is a compound maintenance issue.

GOtv entitle is tied to the GOtv IUC number. The paying phone number is only the wallet.

Pay from where you are — the decoder stays at the house

Pay on Ewale

  1. Read the GOtv IUC number on the card or decoder sticker — digits only.
  2. Dial *714*22# on MTN, Telecel, or AT (or use Ewale web if you have data).
  3. Select TV bills → GOtv.
  4. Confirm the customer name matches the house.
  5. Choose the package. The GHS on screen is today’s vendor price.
  6. Approve Mobile Money. Keep the SMS. Reboot the decoder after 5–15 minutes if channels stay locked.

Best tips for landlord GOtv in rent

  • Inventory photo of IUC at handover.

Agent vs USSD vs official app

Renew or change bouquet Yes — shop hours Yes — any GSM phone, 24/7 when the vend is up
Pay with any Ghana MoMo Depends on the agent’s wallet MTN, Telecel Cash, AT Money on the SIM you dial
Dish / antenna / pairing Sometimes a technician No — that is MultiChoice or StarTimes hardware
Pay for another house If they have the card number Yes — enter their number, confirm the name

Confirm it actually entitled

MoMo success and TV picture are two steps. Keep the SMS. If E16 remains after 30 minutes and a reboot, check you paid the bouquet that includes that channel. Signal-empty screens are not a second subscription.
