Why BISP Changed Its Payment System
The decision to close BISP camp sites and introduce the Retail Payment Model wasn’t sudden — it’s part of a bigger plan to improve transparency, safety, and comfort for beneficiaries. Under the old Campsite Model, people faced long waits, harsh weather, and travel expenses just to collect their payments. Ab hukoomat ne faisla kiya hai ke paisay milain gy aap ke qareeb, through trusted retail partners and PFIs. This change ensures quick service, digital record-keeping, and reduced crowding. The BISP 8171 update reflects a modern step toward financial inclusion and dignity for every family receiving support.
What Is the New BISP Retail Payment Model?
The BISP Retail Payment Model is a modern and user-friendly system designed to make cash distribution easier for beneficiaries. Instead of visiting distant BISP camp sites, now you can simply collect your BISP 8171 payment from nearby authorised retail shops or bank agents. These include partners like HBL Konnect, BAFL, and other PFIs working with BISP. You’ll receive your payment after biometric verification, ensuring transparency and safety. Ab aapko door tak safar karne ki zarurat nahi — paisay milain gy aapke ilaqay ki registered dukaan se, within minutes, aur bilkul secure tareeqay se.
When Does the Change Happen?
The BISP campsite operations will officially end on 24th October 2025, marking the last day for payments under the old system. Starting Monday, 27th October 2025, all beneficiaries will receive their BISP 8171 payments through the new Retail Payment Model. During this short transition period (21–26 October), PFIs and BISP field offices will complete system testing and setup of authorised retail outlets. So don’t worry — your payments won’t be delayed! Ab paisay milain gy shops se, beghair kisi rush ke aur asaani ke sath. Stay updated through the official BISP 8171 portal before visiting any outlet.
