BISP Digital Wallet System Launched
BISP Digital Wallet System Launched. BISP launched a new Digital Wallet and Bank Payment System, also known as the DBPS, on August 14, 2025, to empower women and other vulnerable population groups. The DBPS seeks to improve the process of receiving financial assistance more easily, safely, and transparently for thousands of families in Pakistan.
Why Did BISP Launch This New System?
Many beneficiaries of the BISP faced long lines at payment centers, dealt with bribery from agents and other middlemen or lost part of their payment through “legal deductions”. Accordingly, many beneficiaries, particularly women, widows, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities, faced delays or did not have access to the total payment amount. However, with the new digital wallet and bank account, BISP has opened up the payment system for beneficiaries to receive their quarterly payments of Rs. 13,500 (inclusive of educational stipends) directly to their mobile wallets or bank accounts. There is no more travel to payment centers or dealing with agents. Payments are completely accessible from the forefront and comfort of one’s home.
What Exactly Is the BISP Digital Wallet System?
The BISP Digital Wallet System is a secure, digital method that transfers money straight into a beneficiary’s JazzCash wallet or a linked bank account. This eliminates the need to visit cash centers or depend on agents.
Key features include:
- Direct transfer of funds in the beneficiary’s name
- Biometric verification using thumbprints and OTP (One-Time Password) for security
- No deductions or hidden commissions—the full amount is delivered
- Control over money: beneficiaries can withdraw or save funds as they wish
- Even beneficiaries with simple keypad phones can access JazzCash wallets, making it ideal for women in remote areas without easy bank access
