Keeping a Friendi Mobile line topped up takes seconds once you know the right code. This guide covers every current Friendi recharge code for Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Kuwait, plus balance checks, app and online recharge options, third-party platforms, data packages, and fixes for the most common recharge problems.
What is Friendi Mobile
Friendi Mobile is a prepaid mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) operating across Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Kuwait, running on partner networks in each country. It’s built around affordable local plans and low-cost international calling and credit transfer, which has made it especially popular with expat communities who send calls, SMS, and mobile credit back home.
Friendi offers SIM cards through retail dealers, a dedicated mobile app per country, and an official website for account management and online recharge.
Primary Friendi Recharge Code
The fastest way to top up a Friendi line is the USSD voucher code. Buy a scratch card or digital voucher, then dial the code below with the voucher number attached. No internet connection is required, and the balance updates within seconds.
Saudi Arabia Main Recharge Code
Dial *101*voucher number# and press call, replacing “voucher number” with the 12-digit code on your recharge card (for example, *101*012345678901#). You can also dial *101# alone to open an interactive menu, then choose the voucher recharge option and enter the code when prompted. Some listings also reference calling 101 directly and following the automated voice instructions.
Alternative Recharge Methods Saudi Arabia
If the USSD code doesn’t go through, you can recharge by calling Friendi customer service and reading out your voucher number to an agent, using the Friendi Mobile app to enter the code manually, or visiting the official website’s online recharge page.
Oman Recharge Code
Oman uses a different prefix from Saudi Arabia. Dial *102*voucher number#, entering the full 14-digit code found on your Oman recharge card. You can also dial *101# to access the interactive recharge menu, press 1 for voucher recharge, and enter the code when prompted.
Kuwait Recharge Code
Friendi Mobile Kuwait is a separate MVNO operation launched under Connect Arabia W.L.L., running on different network infrastructure from the Saudi and Oman services. Because Kuwait’s USSD structure can differ, the safest way to recharge is through the Friendi Mobile Kuwait app (credit/debit card recharge) or by calling 156 for the current voucher-code dialing sequence, since publicly listed USSD codes for Kuwait are not consistently documented.
Online Recharge Options
For anyone who doesn’t have a physical voucher on hand, Friendi supports card-based recharge through its apps and websites in each country.
Friendi Mobile App Recharge Saudi Arabia
Download the Friendi app (also listed as the Friendi Package app) from the App Store or Google Play, log in with your Friendi number, and open the “Add Credit” section. Choose an amount between roughly 10 and 100 SAR, enter your Mada or credit card details, and confirm with the OTP sent to your phone. Credit is applied immediately after verification.
Friendi Mobile App Oman
The Oman app follows the same pattern: log in, select recharge, choose an amount in OMR, and pay by card. The app also lets you monitor balance, manage plans, and access self-service codes without memorizing USSD strings.
Website Recharge
Both the Saudi and Oman Friendi websites offer an online recharge portal where you can pay by card and load credit directly to a phone number, without needing the app installed.
Third-Party Recharge Platforms
Several international top-up services list Friendi Mobile, which is useful for family abroad who want to recharge a Friendi line remotely.
Recharge.com
Recharge.com sells Friendi Mobile top-ups from small denominations upward. After payment, it emails a redemption code with instructions, or lets you top up directly by phone number depending on the country.
Ding
Ding supports Friendi top-ups: choose an amount, enter the recipient’s Friendi number, and select a payment method to send credit internationally.
LikeCard
LikeCard is a regional digital voucher marketplace that lists a range of Gulf telecom top-ups. Availability of Friendi vouchers can vary by country, so confirm the listing matches Friendi Saudi Arabia, Oman, or Kuwait before purchasing.
DaleelStore
DaleelStore is another regional voucher retailer. As with any third-party seller, check that the SIM country matches your Friendi line and that the seller is currently listing Friendi credit before buying.
Al Giftcards
Al Giftcards is a digital gift card and mobile top-up platform used across the GCC. Confirm current Friendi availability and country coverage directly on the platform, since third-party catalogs change often.
Haddad
Haddad is a regional retail and e-voucher distributor. If you’re buying a Friendi recharge card in-store or online through Haddad, check the expiry date and denomination printed on the voucher before use.
General rule for all third-party platforms: only buy from authorized or well-reviewed sellers, and always match the country (Saudi Arabia, Oman, or Kuwait) to your actual Friendi SIM, since the three operations don’t interoperate.
Balance Check Codes
Checking your balance before you run out of credit is a free, instant USSD action on every Friendi line.
Saudi Arabia Balance Check
Dial *102# and press call to see your current credit on screen immediately. No data connection is needed and there’s no charge for checking.
Data Balance Check Saudi Arabia
To see remaining data allowance, dial *108# to check your active internet package, or try *142#, which some Friendi lines use specifically for data usage balance.
Oman Balance Codes
Oman balance and data-check codes are best confirmed through the Friendi Mobile Oman app or the self-service section of the website, since the exact short codes for Oman aren’t uniformly published the way the Saudi Arabia codes are. The app’s dashboard shows both credit and data balance without needing a USSD code at all.
Friendi SIM Online Order
Friendi SIM cards don’t have to be picked up in person. In Saudi Arabia, the official Friendi website lets you order a physical SIM or activate an eSIM online, choose a plan, and have the SIM delivered or the eSIM QR code emailed for instant setup Friendi eSIM activation is fully digital, so you can switch plans, activate bundles, or top up entirely from the app once it’s live.
To order online: visit the official Friendi website or app, select “Get a SIM,” choose between a physical SIM (delivered to your address) or an eSIM (instant QR code activation), pick a starter plan, and complete registration with valid ID, since Saudi and Oman regulations require identity verification for SIM activation.
Replacement SIMs for lost or damaged cards can also be ordered through the same online portal or requested at any Friendi store, usually with a small replacement fee.
Friendi Oman Internet Recharge Code
For data specifically in Oman, the process runs through the same voucher and menu system as a standard recharge. After loading credit with *102*voucher number#, dial *100# to open the Oman self-service menu and select the data/internet package option, or manage everything more visually through the Friendi Mobile Oman app, which shows current data bundles and lets you subscribe to a new one with a card payment instead of a voucher.
Because Oman’s specific internet-package short codes aren’t consistently published the way the Saudi ones are, the self-service menu or app is the most reliable route if a remembered code stops working after a system update.
Friendi Mobile Credit
“Friendi mobile credit” refers to the prepaid balance loaded onto a Friendi line, which can come from a physical voucher, an app or website card payment, or a third-party platform. That credit can be used three ways: spent directly on calls, SMS, and pay-as-you-go data; used to subscribe to a bundled plan (combo, data-only, or Flexi) through the package codes covered earlier in this guide; or shared with another Friendi user through the local or international balance transfer codes.
Credit balance and validity period are both visible instantly by dialing *102# or checking the app’s home screen, and unused credit generally carries an expiry tied to the recharge amount, so it’s worth checking the validity window shown right after topping up.
Friendi Recharge Code for 1 Month
There’s no unique “1-month” voucher code separate from the standard recharge code a monthly duration comes from the plan you activate after topping up, not from the top-up itself. To set up a full month of service: recharge using the normal code (*101*voucher number# in Saudi Arabia, *102*voucher number# in Oman) with enough credit to cover a 30-day plan, then dial *112# in Saudi Arabia (or use the app/self-service menu in Oman) and select a bundle with 30-day validity.
Combo and data-only packages both offer 30-day options alongside shorter 7-day or 21-day choices, so double-check the validity period shown before confirming the subscription.
Friendi Customer Care Number
Saudi Arabia support is most commonly listed at 1252 and 166000 across official and third-party sources since numbers occasionally get updated, the app or official Saudi website is the safest place to confirm the current one before an urgent call. Oman customer care runs through +968 9840 0000, reachable for recharge help, technical issues, and account questions, with live chat also available in the app.
Kuwait’s Friendi Mobile is reached at 156, the number printed on Kuwait SIM packaging and used across their official channels. All three countries also support WhatsApp and in-app chat as alternatives to a phone call.
Friendi Balance Check
Dial *102# and press call to see your current Friendi credit instantly, free of charge and without needing data or Wi-Fi. This is the fastest balance check available and works identically whether you’re checking call credit before making a call or confirming a recharge went through.
For data specifically, dial *108# to see your active package details, or *142# on lines where that code is enabled. The Friendi app mirrors the same information on its home dashboard, along with a breakdown of remaining minutes, data, and expiry date, which is useful if you want more detail than a one-line USSD response provides.
Friendi Recharge Voucher
A Friendi recharge voucher is a scratch card or digital code containing the unique number you dial alongside the recharge USSD code to load credit. Physical vouchers are sold at supermarkets, mobile shops, and authorized dealers across Saudi Arabia and Oman, typically in the same denominations as app recharge amounts.
Digital vouchers can be bought through the official Friendi app or website, or through third-party sellers such as Recharge.com and Ding, and are delivered by email or displayed on-screen immediately after payment.
Whichever type you use, keep the code private until you’re ready to redeem it, and check the expiry date printed on physical cards, since an expired voucher won’t load credit even if the code itself is entered correctly.
Friendi SIM Number Check
If you’ve forgotten your own Friendi number, dial *110# or *115*1# and the number will appear on screen instantly. This works without needing to check the SIM packaging or contact support.
Balance Transfer Codes
Friendi allows both local and international credit sharing between numbers, which is one of its most-used features among expat customers.
Local Balance Transfer Saudi Arabia
Dial *103#, press 1 to confirm, enter the recipient’s mobile number, then the amount to transfer, followed by your PIN (default PIN is 0000). A small transfer fee, commonly cited around SAR 0.50, may apply. You can change your PIN by dialing *106#.
International Balance Transfer
To send credit to a number outside Saudi Arabia (for example, to Pakistan, India, or another country), dial *114# and enter the destination number with its country code, then follow the prompts to select an amount.
Oman Credit Transfer
Within Oman, transfer credit to another Friendi number for free by dialing *123#. To send credit internationally as a gift to family abroad, dial *222#, enter the international number with country code, and choose the transfer amount; both sender and recipient receive an SMS confirmation.
Data Package Subscription Codes
Friendi’s data plans are activated through short USSD menus rather than the recharge code itself.
Saudi Arabia Data Packages
Dial *112# for prepaid combo plans (data plus minutes), *108# for data-only plans, or *119# for Flexi plans that combine local and international minutes with data. Follow the on-screen menu to pick a validity period and data size.
Data Settings Configuration
If mobile data isn’t working after a package purchase, dial *144# to receive the correct APN and data settings automatically pushed to your phone.
Additional Service Codes Saudi Arabia
Call Me Back Request
If you’re out of credit and need someone to call you, the safest way to activate a call-back alert is through the Friendi app or by contacting customer care directly, as Friendi’s exact call-me-back short code isn’t consistently published and may vary by line type.
Advance Credit Service
Out of balance with an urgent need to call? Dial *104# in Saudi Arabia (or *120*20# in Oman) to borrow emergency credit, which is repaid automatically from your next recharge, typically with a service charge (commonly cited around 10% of the borrowed amount). Eligibility generally requires an active line with a recent recharge history.
Package Subscription Check
To see which data or combo plan is currently active, dial *108# and follow the prompts, or check the “My Account” section of the Friendi app for a full breakdown of remaining data, minutes, and expiry date.
SMS Parking Service Oman
Friendi Oman also offers SMS-based car parking payment. Send an SMS with your car number and car code (for example, “1252 AD 30” for 30 minutes) to 90091, and you’ll receive a confirmation with the ticket number and expiry time, plus a reminder SMS before it lapses.
Recharge Amount Options
Saudi Arabia Denominations
Friendi Saudi Arabia recharge vouchers and app top-ups are commonly available from around 10 SAR up to 100 SAR and beyond, sold at supermarkets, mobile shops, and via the app or website.
Oman Denominations
Oman recharge amounts are denominated in Omani Rial, with vouchers and online top-ups typically starting from 1 OMR and going upward in the standard 1/3/5/10 OMR range through most retail and digital channels.
Customer Support Contact Information
Saudi Arabia Customer Service
Friendi’s Saudi Arabia support numbers are listed variably as 1252 and 166000 across official and third-party sources. Because support numbers can be updated, confirm the current one in the Friendi app or on the official Saudi Arabia website before relying on it for an urgent issue.
Oman Customer Service
Reach Friendi Oman support at +968 9840 0000, available for recharge assistance, technical support, and account inquiries, or via the live chat option in the Friendi Mobile app.
Self-Service USSD Menu
Dial *100# in Oman for the main self-service menu covering balance checks, recharge, package subscriptions, and account settings without speaking to an agent.
Troubleshooting Recharge Issues
Voucher Code Not Working
Double-check that you’ve entered the complete code with no spaces, confirm the card hasn’t already been used or expired, and make sure you’re dialing the correct country code (*101# for Saudi Arabia, *102# for Oman) since a Saudi voucher won’t work on an Omani line or vice versa.
Recharge Not Reflecting
If credit doesn’t appear within a few minutes, retry the USSD code once more, restart your phone to refresh the network connection, and if the issue persists after about 30 minutes, contact customer support with your voucher number and the exact time of the attempt.
App Payment Failures
Update the Friendi app to the latest version, confirm your card has sufficient funds and hasn’t expired, check that the OTP SMS actually arrived, and try an alternate card or payment method if one consistently fails.
International Recharge Issues
When topping up from abroad through a third-party platform, make sure the platform explicitly supports the correct Friendi country (Saudi Arabia, Oman, or Kuwait), since the three operations are separate and a voucher purchased for the wrong country won’t redeem.
Comparing Recharge Methods
Speed Comparison
Physical voucher codes are the fastest option, applying credit within seconds of dialing the USSD string. App-based card recharges take a bit longer, generally 10–30 seconds including OTP verification, while third-party platforms can range from near-instant to a few minutes depending on how quickly they email the code.
Cost Comparison
Official channels — USSD vouchers, the app, and the website apply the exact face value of the recharge with no added fee. Third-party marketplaces occasionally include a small service or currency-conversion markup, so it’s worth comparing the total charge before checkout.
Convenience Factors
USSD codes work with zero internet and no login, making them ideal in low-signal areas. The app is more convenient for repeat users who want saved cards and usage history. Third-party platforms are most useful for recharging a family member’s line from another country.
Additional Friendi Services
Roaming Services
Friendi lines can typically use data and calls while traveling internationally, though roaming availability and rates vary by destination country check the app’s roaming section or contact support before traveling to confirm current coverage.
Data Rollover
On qualifying plans, unused data and minutes can roll over when a plan auto-renews, rather than resetting to zero, which is worth checking in the app before assuming leftover data is lost.
Auto-Renewal Settings
Data and combo plans can usually be set to renew automatically as long as sufficient balance is available, helping avoid an unexpected service gap — this can be toggled from the app or by dialing the relevant package code and selecting the renewal option.
Promotional Offers
Friendi periodically runs limited-time bonus offers, such as extra data on recharge or bonus international minutes. These are announced through the app, SMS, and the official website, so keeping notifications enabled is the easiest way not to miss them.
Friendi Package Plans
Freedom Plans
Freedom-branded plans are generally positioned as flexible, no-commitment prepaid bundles combining data and calling minutes, aimed at everyday local usage.
Saver Plans
Saver plans are typically the budget-focused tier, offering smaller data and minute allowances at a lower price point for lighter users.
Smart Bundles
Smart Bundles combine data, local minutes, and sometimes international minutes into a single package, aimed at users who want one subscription covering most of their needs.
Tamaiuz Plans
Tamaiuz plans are among Friendi’s postpaid or hybrid-style offerings, generally providing larger monthly allowances for subscribers with more consistent, higher-volume usage. Exact allowances and pricing should be confirmed in-app since plan details are refreshed periodically.
Best Practices for Recharging
Keep Voucher Codes Secure
Treat a Friendi voucher like cash don’t photograph or share the scratch-off code publicly, and use it soon after purchase to avoid loss or theft of an unused card.
Monitor Expiry Dates
Both credit and data packages carry validity windows. Checking balance regularly with *102# (or the app) helps you recharge before a plan lapses rather than after service is interrupted.
Save Receipt Information
For app or online recharges, keep the payment confirmation or transaction ID. It’s the fastest way to resolve a dispute if a recharge doesn’t reflect on your balance.
Enable Recharge Notifications
Turn on low-balance and data-usage alerts in the Friendi app so you’re notified before running out of credit, rather than discovering it mid-call.
Use Official Channels
When in doubt, recharge through the official app, website, or an authorized retailer. Unofficial resellers occasionally circulate already-used or invalid voucher codes.
