In this article, I will show you the Glo Tariff plan that is best for browsing.  When I say best for browsing,  I don’t mean the one that offers the strongest or fastest browsing speed.  The strength of a network is independent of the tariff plan.  By the best tariff plan,  I mean the tariff plan that gives the most data bonuses.

We know that Glo is the master of data and they hardly relent in giving their subscribers bonuses but there is a tariff plan that offers more data bonuses than others.

Like other networks,  Glo has a tariff plan that is designed for those who make lots of calls and there is also a tariff plan for tech-savvy people who are always online doing one thing or the other. Having said that,  it is understandable that if you are on tariff plan made for calls and you browse more than you make calls, then you will be missing out.

For some people,  they only buy Glo SIM card for browsing purpose; meaning that any tariff plan not made for browsing is of no use to them.  But then,  using Glo for the first time, you will probably not know the best tariff plan for browsing. Hence, the reason for this article.

I have been using Glo for close to three years now. And I can say that I am in a better position to recommend the best tariff plan for you.

As of the time of writing this article,  no Glo tariff plan has been able to surpass Glo Yakata in offering data bonus to subscribers.  Glo Yakata rewards users with amazing data bonuses as well as call bonus.  Read below for more information about the Glo Yakata Plan.
