What Is MTN Pick and Pay Later?
MTN Pick and Pay Later is a simple way to buy a smartphone without paying the full amount upfront. If you’re an eligible MTN Ghana customer, you can pick a device, pay part of the price immediately, and cover the rest in smaller payments over four or six months using MTN Mobile Money (MoMo).
Think of it like buying a school bag on credit—you pay a little now and the rest later, but you still get to use the bag immediately. The same applies here: you get the phone now and pay in installments.
Who Can Use MTN Pick and Pay Later?
Not everyone can use this service. MTN has a system to check if you qualify, mainly based on how you use your MTN line and Mobile Money. Here’s what you need:
- Be an active MTN Ghana customer.
- Have a history of using MTN services regularly.
- Use MTN Mobile Money frequently and responsibly.
- Maintain a good payment record.
If you meet these requirements, MTN considers you a reliable customer and allows you to buy a phone through this service.

How Much Interest Do You Pay?
The total cost of your phone includes a fixed interest rate, which depends on the device and payment plan you choose. When you request a device using the MoMo shortcode, MTN will show you the exact interest amount before you confirm.
What Happens If You Miss a Payment?
If you don’t make your payment on time, MTN gives you a 24-hour grace period to catch up. If you still don’t pay, your phone will be locked, making it unusable until you clear the outstanding balance.
If you’re looking for a new smartphone but can’t pay the full price upfront, MTN Pick and Pay Later is a great way to spread out the cost while staying connected.
