Jazz Begins Free SIM & JazzCash Wallet Rollout for 2 Million BISP Women Under PM’s Cashless Pakistan Vision
Jazz has officially begun rolling out two million free SIMs for Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) beneficiaries across Pakistan, marking a major step toward the Prime Minister’s vision of a cashless, transparent, and digitally empowered Pakistan.
According to the company, 1.7 million of these SIMs are already pre-linked to JazzCash mobile wallets, enabling women who have never been part of the formal banking system to instantly access digital financial services.
Supporting PM’s Cashless Pakistan Vision
This rollout follows the Prime Minister’s direction to mobile operators to issue free SIMs to BISP-registered women, ensuring beneficiaries receive their payments through secure digital channels instead of risky cash-based methods.
Under the new model:
- Eligible BISP women will receive a free Jazz SIM
- Most SIMs will be connected to a verified JazzCash wallet
- Future BISP funds will be directly deposited digitally
- Women will be able to withdraw cash securely or make digital payments
This shift aims to eliminate middlemen, reduce fraud, and give women full financial control for the first time.
A First Step Toward Digital Inclusion for Millions of Women
Jazz is activating the first wave of 2 million unconnected BISP beneficiaries, while more than 10 million women remain registered under the national program.
For many, this initiative will provide:
- Their first digital identity
- Their first mobile wallet
- Their first independent financial access
- Their first experience managing money digitally
CEO Aamir Ibrahim: “A Transformational Step”
Aamir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz and Chairman of Mobilink Bank, described the effort as a turning point in Pakistan’s social safety system.
He stated:
“The Prime Minister’s leadership on building a cashless social safety net is transformational. Free SIMs for BISP beneficiaries and the shift to digital payments don’t just modernize the system — they give women dignity, privacy, and direct control over their financial lives.”
Rollout Begins Across Provinces
SIM distribution has already started in Sindh and is now expanding to:
- Punjab
