The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has officially announced a major upgrade in its payment system for August 2025. Eligible women across Pakistan can now receive their Rs. 13,500 installment directly into their Easypaisa or JazzCash mobile wallets, eliminating delays and ensuring faster, safer access to funds.
This transformation marks a significant move toward digital empowerment and financial inclusion, especially for women in rural and remote areas.
What’s New in BISP Digital Payments?
In the past, BISP beneficiaries had to collect their payments from government campsites or specific bank agents, often standing in long queues or facing unauthorized deductions.
But starting from August 2025, the following changes are in effect:
- Payments are directly transferred to Easypaisa or JazzCash accounts
- Beneficiaries receive an SMS alert from 8171
- Cash can be withdrawn from nearest franchises or ATMs
- Increased security with biometric and CNIC verification
This means no more middlemen, no commission cuts, and complete transparency.
Which Apps Can Be Used for BISP Payments?
The government has authorized two trusted mobile wallet apps for digital disbursement:
-
Easypaisa (Telenor Pakistan) – Available nationwide with thousands of agents
-
JazzCash (Jazz) – Widely accepted and easy to use with biometric-enabled outlets
Both apps are free to download, and users only need a valid CNIC and registered mobile number to access their payment.
