The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has once again announced good news for millions of families in Pakistan. In August 2025, the government began distributing quarterly payments, and this time, the process has become even easier with the JazzCash mobile wallet.
Now, beneficiaries can collect their money without standing in long queues or traveling far distances. Let’s understand the new updates, payment amounts, methods, and step-by-step guide for withdrawing BISP money through JazzCash.
Understanding BISP August 2025 Payments
- ✅ Each family is receiving PKR 13,500 as the regular quarterly installment.
- ✅ Families who missed earlier payments are being given PKR 27,000 in one installment.
- ✅ Distributions started in early August 2025, and payments are being sent in phases across districts.
This direct financial support is a significant relief during periods of rising inflation, helping families cover their daily expenses.
