Imagine being able to send money, buy airtime, and pay bills—all from your phone—without needing to visit a bank. That’s exactly what AirtelTigo Money (AT Money) allows you to do. If you’ve ever wondered how to register, don’t worry! This guide will walk you through the process in the simplest way possible, making sure you don’t miss a step.
What is AirtelTigo Money?
AirtelTigo Money (AT Money) is like a digital wallet sitting right in your phone. It lets you send and receive money, buy airtime and data, pay for goods and services, and even handle bill payments. Whether you’re splitting a lunch bill with a friend or paying your electricity bill, AT Money makes it easy.
It started in 2011 as Tigo Cash, but after Airtel and Tigo merged in 2017, it became AirtelTigo Money. Today, it’s one of Ghana’s most convenient mobile money services.
What You Need to Register for AirtelTigo Money
Before you jump into the registration process, make sure you meet these requirements:
- You must be at least 18 years old
- You need a valid national ID (Ghana Card, Passport, Voter ID, etc.)
- You must own a registered AirtelTigo SIM card
If you have all three, you’re ready to go!
How to Register for AirtelTigo Money
AirtelTigo makes it easy to register in two ways: through your phone or at an AirtelTigo office. Let’s break them down step by step.
Method 1: Register Using Your Phone (USSD Code)
If you prefer handling things from the comfort of your home, this method is for you. Here’s how you do it:
- Dial *110# on your AirtelTigo line.
- Select Register from the options.
- Choose Self AT Money Registration.
- Wait for a confirmation SMS about your registration status.
Set Up Your PIN
Once you’re registered, you’ll need to set up your PIN to keep your money safe:
- Dial *110# again.
- Select Option 1 (Yes) to confirm registration.
- Enter a 4-digit PIN (Avoid easy guesses like 1234 or 1111).
- Confirm the PIN by entering it again.
- Provide an alternate phone number for PIN recovery.
- Enter a secret word that you can remember easily (this helps with account recovery if needed).
And that’s it! You’ll get a final SMS confirming that your AirtelTigo Money wallet is ready to use.
Pro Tip: If you face any issues during self-registration, simply call AirtelTigo customer service or visit an agent for help.

Not comfortable doing it yourself? No problem! Just visit any AirtelTigo office or agent with your valid national ID. A customer care agent will assist you with the registration process.
You’ll provide your personal details, set up a 4-digit PIN, and within minutes, you’ll be good to go!
