For the first time ever I got a dual Sim phone.
My Primary Sim is a MTN Contract with minimal data.
For my Secondary Sim I want to get a Prepaid MTN Sim with Afrihost Data.

If I set my phone to use Sim 2 for data, how will my WhatsApp work, as it is registered with my Primary Sim Number?
 
But what will happen if my Primary number (which is registered with WhatsApp) data is depleted?

Can't I use the Secondary Sim or will whatsapp say that my number has changed?

You set your Sim2 to data.
Sim 1 is for calls.

It doesn't matter as long as you've set up WhatsApp on the correct number
 
The only time you need the sim for WhatsApp is when you register or change devices etc to get the OTP. Using WhatsApp after that does not require a sim at all. Uses data only......
