The Government of Pakistan has activated the 8171.bisp.gov.pk portal for September 2025, giving millions of families a faster way to check eligibility, verify payments, and submit complaints. With a few clicks, beneficiaries can confirm their Rs 13,500 BISP installment, reducing travel, queues, and reliance on agents.
What Is 8171.bisp.gov.pk — and Why It Matters Now
The 8171 web portal is BISP’s official digital dashboard. It connects your CNIC, NADRA record, and payment status in one place. By moving services online, the programme improves transparency, cuts the risk of fraud, and helps both urban and rural families access updates without visiting offices.
September 2025 Installment — What’s New This Cycle
For September, eligible households are receiving Rs 13,500 using a phased schedule. The portal shows real-time status, while 8171 SMS alerts confirm release. Payments are routed through BISP payment centers, partner bank ATMs, and authorized cash outlets with biometric verification to ensure the right person is paid.
How to Check Your Status Online (Step-by-Step)
Open the portal on mobile or desktop and keep your CNIC ready. Enter your 13-digit CNIC, complete the captcha, and hit Submit. The page will display your eligibility, payment month, and collection channel. Save a screenshot or note the details—staff may ask to see your confirmation at the counter.
Alternative: Verify by SMS (8171)
If you don’t have internet, text your 13-digit CNIC to 8171. You’ll get an official confirmation with your status. Use the same SIM you registered with your CNIC for the smoothest experience and keep the message until you’ve collected your BISP Rs 13,500.
Where & How to Collect Your Rs 13,500
Payments are disbursed at BISP camps, HBL/HBL Connect, partner ATMs, and authorized retailers. Always carry your original CNIC for biometric verification. At ATMs, use your debit card (if issued) or CNIC-based biometric flow where available, then print or keep the receipt for your records.
Documents You Should Bring
Carry your original CNIC, the 8171 confirmation SMS, and any B-Form or case slip if previously issued. These documents speed up verification and help resolve mismatches quickly.
Use the Built-In Complaint System
The portal includes e-complaint registration for issues like payment delays, biometric failures, and unauthorized deductions. Submitting online creates a tracking number, helping teams process your case faster and reducing back-and-forth visits to tehsil offices.
Issues You Can Report
Biometric mismatch or device errors
Payment shown released but not received
Wrong outlet or ATM guidance
Any deduction by agents/retailers
