Pay ECG Bill with MTN MoMo Shortcode *714*22# — Faster Than *170#

Pay ECG with MTN MoMo — Skip *170#, Use *714*22#

MTN users often dial *170# → MoMoPay → Pay Bill → Utilities → ECG — five menu levels deep. Ewale *714*22# cuts that to three taps: Utilities → ECG → Prepaid/Postpaid. Same MoMo wallet, faster path, cashback included.

MTN MoMo Steps on Ewale

  1. Fund your MTN MoMo wallet (min GH₵1 for prepaid).
  2. Dial *714*22# from your MTN line.
  3. Utilities → ECG Power → Prepaid or Postpaid.
  4. Enter meter number and GHS amount.
  5. Approve with your MTN MoMo PIN.
  6. Token or receipt arrives by SMS.

This works whether ECG's *226# is slow or MTN's *170# utility menu is unavailable.
