Buy Yola Electric prepaid token on WhatsApp

To buy a Yola Electric prepaid token, message Milo on WhatsApp with your meter number and the amount, for example "5000 light for meter 45071234567". Milo checks the meter, you approve with your PIN, and the 20-digit token arrives in the same chat. There is no app to download.

How it works

  1. Message Milo on WhatsApp. If you are new, open your account first: your BVN, your date of birth and a 4-digit PIN. It takes about a minute.
  2. Say what you need. For example 5000 light for meter 45071234567. If you leave anything out, Milo asks for it.
  3. Check and approve. Milo shows the meter and the amount. You approve with your PIN.
  4. Get your token. It arrives in the chat. Type the 20 digits on your meter and press enter.

Questions

Can I buy a token at night or on a Sunday?

Milo answers on WhatsApp at any hour. A token is issued by Yola Electric's own vending system, so if that system cannot issue one, the purchase is not completed and your money goes straight back to your Milo balance.

How do I load the token on my meter?

A prepaid token is 20 digits. Type it on your meter's keypad and press the enter key. The units show on the meter when it is accepted.

Can I pay a postpaid bill too?

Yes. Tell Milo the meter or account number and that it is postpaid, and the bill is paid the same way.

I lost the message with my token. Can I get it again?

The token stays in your WhatsApp chat with Milo. Scroll up to the receipt, or ask Milo for your recent payments.
