In 2025, the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has taken a big leap towards modernizing its disbursement system. As part of the government’s digital transformation efforts, BISP 8171 beneficiaries can now receive their payments through JazzCash, EasyPaisa and Pakistan Post’s digital network. This move is designed to provide safer, faster and more accessible ways to collect financial assistance, especially in rural and underserved areas.
This article discusses the latest updates to digital payments under the BISP 8171 by 2025 program, focusing on new channels, eligibility, and the step-by-step process for receiving payments.
Why Digital Payments? A Need for Easier Access
Traditionally, BISP beneficiaries had to visit bank branches, biometric centers, or designated shops to collect their funds. While these options helped many families, they also created long queues, travel expenses, and delays—particularly in remote districts.
By introducing mobile wallet platforms like JazzCash and EasyPaisa, along with support from Pakistan Post’s digitized infrastructure, the BISP system is now more efficient and user-friendly. Beneficiaries no longer need to rely solely on physical visits to banks or retail points. With a few steps, payments can be received and withdrawn securely through a mobile phone or local post outlet.
