Families in Pakistan with low incomes can still get help from the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). The BISP Kafalat project has started a new payment period as of August 2025. The government has posted an updated schedule for giving money to eligible people. The schedule is organized by cluster and phase.
This article provides detailed and verified information about the BISP August 2025 payment process, including district-wise clusters, phase dates, eligibility procedures, and payment collection methods.
🟩 What Is BISP Kafalat?
The BISP Kafalat Program offers quarterly financial aid to vulnerable women and families. Each cycle provides direct cash transfers to eligible households through biometric verification at partner banks or agents such as HBL Konnect, JazzCash, and BISP Campsites.
To improve delivery and prevent overcrowding at disbursement points, BISP uses a phase-wise payment model based on the geographic clustering of districts.
