April 10, 2026 (MLN): JazzCash has been appointed as the exclusive
disbursement partner for the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Ehsaas Fuel
Support Scheme, in collaboration with Mobilink Bank, which marks a significant
step toward large-scale digital distribution of fuel subsidies.
The initiative is part of the provincial government’s
broader push to digitize public services and improve transparency in welfare
programs.
Under the scheme, eligible beneficiaries will be identified
and verified by government departments, with financial assistance transferred
directly into their JazzCash wallets for instant access, APP reported.
Speaking on the development, Chief Minister Sohail Afridi
said the program reflects the government’s commitment to supporting citizens
amid rising living costs.
He emphasized that the use of digital platforms ensures
assistance is delivered efficiently while preserving the dignity of recipients.
JazzCash will utilize its extensive network of over one
million Raast QR-enabled merchants and agents to facilitate access to funds
across both urban and remote areas.
The platform’s prior
experience in handling large-scale government disbursements is expected to
ensure secure and timely payments.
To further assist beneficiaries, JazzCash has also launched
a dedicated helpline for support and guidance.
Commenting on the partnership, JazzCash CEO Murtaza Ali stated that the company aims to streamline the transfer of financial assistance, ensuring beneficiaries can access funds quickly and without complications.
