April 08, 2026 (MLN): easypaisa digital bank, Pakistan’s leading digital financial services platform, has taken a pioneering role in supporting the Government of Pakistan in the implementation of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif’s Fuel Package 2026.

The platform is facilitating fast, secure, and transparent disbursement of financial assistance to millions of eligible citizens across the country.

easypaisa became the first digital wallet to successfully transfer the first batch of funds to truck operators, followed by disbursements for tank lorries, buses, and motorcycles.

Under this initiative, easypaisa has already disbursed Rs1.2bn to over 32,000 beneficiaries, including operators of buses, trucks, long-haul vehicles, and delivery vans.

Leveraging its extensive digital payments infrastructure and wide agent network, easypaisa ensures that recipients can conveniently access funds without facing long queues or complex processes.

Through its robust mobile wallet ecosystem, the platform enables real-time transfers, allowing users to withdraw funds, pay bills, or make digital purchases seamlessly.

Jahanzeb Khan, President & CEO of easypaisa digital bank, said, “We are honored to partner with the Government of Pakistan in delivering timely financial relief to citizens.

Our mission has always been to simplify and secure access to financial services, unlocking opportunities and empowering all Pakistanis.

This initiative highlights the impact digital banks like easypaisa can have in enhancing efficiency and transparency in public welfare programs.”

Shaza Fatima Khawaja, Federal Minister for Information Technology and Telecommunication, added, “Digital payments are a key pillar of Pakistan’s modern financial system, enabling transparency, efficiency, and inclusion at scale.

Platforms like easypaisa are ensuring that government support reaches citizens quickly and securely.

Under the digital nation vision of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, digital finance is transforming lives while promoting a cashless, digitally empowered Pakistan.”

easypaisa’s contribution to the Fuel Package 2026 demonstrates its commitment to national initiatives, financial inclusion, and the growth of Pakistan’s digital economy.

By ensuring precise targeting and minimizing leakages, the platform strengthens accountability and efficiency in subsidy distribution.

With over 59 million registered users and an expansive agent network in urban and rural areas, easypaisa continues to be a trusted partner for government-to-person (G2P) payments, driving financial inclusion and advancing Pakistan’s digital transformation.
