In a major step toward financial inclusion, the Government of Pakistan has introduced the BISP 8171 Digital Wallet for 2025. This system allows eligible families under the Benazir Income Support Program to receive their quarterly payments of Rs. 13,500 directly into a secure digital wallet, without needing to visit crowded payment centers.
This new method has been developed to eliminate delays, reduce fraud, and provide more transparent transactions. It connects directly with NADRA’s verification system and mobile wallet services, allowing beneficiaries to manage their funds easily. By shifting to digital payments, the program is empowering women and low-income families with more control over their financial support.
