Ooredoo Cost: Small fee Prepaid Postpaid Verified May 2026

Ooredoo Oman’s balance transfer lets one Hala prepaid line send credit directly to another — useful for topping up a family member’s line remotely, splitting the cost of a recharge with a friend, or helping someone whose credit has run out without needing to physically hand them cash or a voucher.

Quick answer

Dial *222# and navigate to “Balance Transfer,” or use the Ooredoo Oman app under Transfer. Both send OMR directly from your balance to another Hala prepaid number.

How the transfer works

  1. Dial *222# and select Balance Transfer from the menu (or open the app’s Transfer section).
  2. Enter the recipient’s Ooredoo Oman number.
  3. Enter the amount in OMR you want to send.
  4. Confirm — both you and the recipient typically receive an SMS confirming the transfer.

What it’s actually useful for

  • Helping family remotely: send credit to a parent or child’s line without needing to be physically present with cash or a scratch card.
  • Splitting costs: if you’ve bought a larger recharge voucher, transfer a portion to whoever you’re sharing it with rather than handing over the physical card.
  • Emergency top-up for someone else: faster than walking them through recharge methods when they need credit immediately.

The fine print

Transfers carry a small service fee and are restricted to Ooredoo Oman prepaid numbers only — you can’t send balance to Omantel or to a postpaid account. Daily or per-transaction limits apply and are confirmed live in the *222# menu, since Ooredoo periodically adjusts them.
