BISP JazzCash New Card 2025
Introduction
In 2025, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has introduced a major digital upgrade — the BISP JazzCash New Card system. This shift from traditional cash distribution points to direct digital transfers is changing how millions of low-income households receive their government support.
Previously, beneficiaries had to travel long distances, stand in long queues, or deal with middlemen to access their entitled money. Now, payments are credited directly into JazzCash wallets or linked bank accounts, making the process faster, safer, and more transparent.

Why BISP Shifted to JazzCash and Digital Payments
The new BISP JazzCash payment model is designed to solve three major issues beneficiaries faced:

Extra charges or deductions from intermediaries

Safety concerns, especially for women traveling to collection points
By moving to JazzCash and bank accounts, the government ensures that money reaches families quickly and securely. This system also helps cut down on fraud, reduces administrative costs, and empowers households with digital financial inclusion.

To opt for this, beneficiaries must submit their IBAN and personal details at a BISP office or online portal. After verification, funds will be sent directly into the linked bank account.
