The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is a government project in Pakistan that gives monthly money to poor and deserving families.
In 2025, the BISP ATM withdrawal system has made it easier for women and families to collect money without waiting in long lines or depending on agents.
Now, beneficiaries can receive full payment safely from HBL or Bank Alfalah ATMs using biometric verification.
