Introduction to BISP Biometric Retail Disbursement System
BISP Biometric Retail Disbursement has taken a revolutionary step in improving its payment mechanism by introducing a biometric retail-based disbursement model. This major shift began on June 16, 2025, to offer a secure, efficient, and heatwave-protected environment for financial assistance delivery, especially targeting women and elderly citizens. Previously, beneficiaries had to endure long queues at campsite locations under severe heat and poor conditions. The new system replaces those outdated and uncomfortable campsites with digitally equipped retail outlets across Pakistan, ensuring dignity, ease, and transparency in the disbursement process.
The retail disbursement model includes biometric verification, printed receipts, and access to payment at designated retail shops. This ensures security, reduces fraud, and improves accessibility for beneficiaries even in remote or rural regions.

Why the Retail-Based Biometric System Was Introduced
For years, BISP beneficiaries had to wait in crowded campsites for hours or even days to receive their quarterly stipends. These camps lacked basic facilities like clean water, proper shade, and medical assistance, making it especially difficult for elderly women, pregnant women, and disabled persons.
The new biometric retail model aims to resolve all these issues. Payments are now distributed via selected retail agents, like local shops or banks, that are equipped with biometric verification tools. This method not only protects recipients from heat-related issues but also helps prevent identity fraud and agent corruption.
Field monitoring and implementation are being handled by BISP teams in collaboration with partner banks, with continuous inspections to ensure the smooth operation of this transformation.
