The Government of Pakistan has partnered with major banks, digital wallets, and biometric ATMs to ensure that every eligible woman, senior citizen, and low-income family receives their BISP Ehsaas Kafalat payment safely and on time.

Whether you collect your payment through Habib Bank Limited (HBL), Bank Alfalah, JazzCash, or Easypaisa, this guide will walk you through every collection method, CNIC verification process, and new digital updates under the BISP 8171 Ehsaas Kafalat 2026 program.

What is Ehsaas Kafalat Program 2026?

The Ehsaas Kafalat Program 2026, run under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), provides Rs. 13,500 quarterly stipends to low-income families across Pakistan. The initiative, launched to strengthen women empowerment, financial inclusion, and poverty reduction, has now entered a more digital and transparent phase, enabling cashless withdrawals through banks, ATMs, and mobile wallets.

Similarly, other provincial initiatives like the CM Punjab Asaan Karobar Card are promoting economic inclusion by offering interest-free loans and digital financial access to small entrepreneurs, complementing national welfare programs such as Ehsaas Kafalat.

Beneficiaries can:

  • Verify their payment schedule via 8171 SMS service.
  • Visit the designated BISP camp with their CNIC.
  • Collect the Ehsaas Kafalat payment after biometric verification.

This model reduces crowding, ensures women’s safety, and increases transparency.

CNIC and Biometric Verification Process

To prevent fraud, every Ehsaas Kafalat payment must go through biometric verification using NADRA’s Verisys system.

Steps:

  1. Check your eligibility via 8171 web portal or SMS.
  2. Visit BISP registration center for CNIC verification.
  3. Complete biometric fingerprint scan.
  4. Collect your payment through your chosen channel.

If verification fails, beneficiaries can:

  • Update CNIC details at NADRA.
  • Re-verify at BISP Tehsil Office.
  • Contact BISP helpline for resolution.
