Effective February 1st, 2021 users of MTN Mobile money(MOMO) will be required tp present a valid national identification before transactions can be made at merchant and agent points.

According to telecommunications giants MTN, identification cards include Ghana card, Driving license, voters ID, NHIS are the eligible identification cards for making transactions. MTN Ghana further noted that, when an agent is performing a cash-out for a subscriber, the agent is required to select ID type and enter ID number of the card the user provides.
