The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP 8171) has introduced a new way of giving payments in 2025. Now, all eligible families will get their Rs. 13,500 cash installment directly into their bank accounts. This system replaces the old methods where people had to collect money from camps, agents, or mobile wallets.
With this direct bank transfer system, the government wants to make the process easy, safe, and transparent. Beneficiaries can now withdraw their money from any ATM or bank branch without waiting in long lines or paying extra charges.
What Changed in the 2025 BISP System?
Before 2025, most beneficiaries got their BISP payments through payment centers, JazzCash, Easypaisa, or special camps. These methods often caused problems like deductions by agents, long queues, and delays in payments.
Now, with the new bank account-based system, payments will go straight into personal bank accounts. This gives more control to beneficiaries and ensures transparency with SMS alerts and bank records.
How Does the New Bank Transfer Work?
To use this new system, every eligible woman must link her CNIC with a valid bank account. Once verified, all future installments of Rs. 13,500 will be sent directly to that account.
This new method will:
- Stop unauthorized deductions by middlemen
- Save time and travel costs for women
- Provide safe and clear transaction records
- Allow easy ATM withdrawals anytime
