To transfer your top up to another Plus prepaid phone, you have to send a text message to 5511 containing the text “P [Amount] [Plus Number]”, for example “P 15 600 666 666”. Once the message has been send, you will receive a SMS by Plus with the details of the transfer request, including the Plus number that will receive the top up and the amount of mobile money you want to send.
