👉 If you are part of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), you already know that payments are now shifting into a digital wallet system. From October 2025, BISP started a new update: beneficiaries can verify their wallets directly at special campsites. Not just that – free SIM cards, biometric checks, and bank selection options are also available this time.
Let’s go step by step.
What’s New in October 2025 – Digital Wallet + Free SIM 🚀
For the first time, BISP has decided to move away from only cash-based payments. In October 2025:
- ✅ 10M digital wallets BISP are being created for beneficiaries.
- ✅ Free SIM distribution is happening at BISP campsites.
- ✅ Payments like BISP 13500 October 2025 will be directly transferred into these wallets.
- ✅ Supported by the European Union and Germany, making it more reliable.
👉 This means you don’t need to stand in long queues at shops or agents anymore. Once your wallet is active, you can get money through your SIM + PIN code.
💡 In short: Digital wallet = faster, safer, and zero “cuts” by agents.
Why Campsite Verification is Important for Wallet Activation 🔑
Many people are asking: “Why do we need to go to camps for verification?” 🤔
Here’s why:
- 🖐 Biometric thumb scan is required to confirm your identity.
- 📱 A SIM card in your own name is given, because OTP (one-time password) will only work on your SIM.
- 🪪 Your CNIC is linked with the wallet, so no one else can withdraw your money.
Without campsite verification, your wallet will not be activated. So visiting the camp is mandatory.
