The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is Pakistan’s largest welfare project, helping millions of poor and deserving families every year. In 2025, the government has taken another bold step by introducing the BISP 8171 Digital Payment System. This modern system ensures that financial aid reaches the right people quickly, safely, and without middlemen.
With this new upgrade, beneficiaries will now receive their quarterly payment of Rs. 13,500 directly through JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or Pakistan Post outlets with biometric verification. The September installment is being rolled out, and families are eager to know how they can check their payment status.
Why the 2025 Digital Rollout is Important
In past years, BISP payments often faced issues like:
- Long delays in receiving installments
