JazzCash Expands Access to Financial Assistance Through Punjab Government’s “Maryam Ko Batayn” Programme

Punjab's "Maryam Ko Batayn" programme, led by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif, has seen JazzCash disburse PKR 10,000 to 100,000 beneficiaries in the province. Acting as the disbursement partner, JazzCash has facilitated the distribution of a total of PKR 1 billion through its extensive network of agents. The programme's beneficiaries can collect their funds securely nearby, without the need for bank accounts or visits to government distribution points.

Applicants are verified against the Punjab Socio-Economic Registry and other welfare databases, with approved individuals able to receive cash grants from a JazzCash agent after biometric verification. The process from registration to disbursement can be completed within four days, with new applicants able to register, verify, and receive assistance swiftly.

Following its initial success, the programme will continue beyond Ramazan to support more individuals and families in need. JazzCash's involvement in the programme demonstrates its commitment to enhancing welfare and government-to-person payments, bringing financial assistance closer to communities through secure digital verification and a robust agent network.
