BISP ATM Withdrawal 2026 – Authorized ATM Payment Collection System

In 2026, the BISP is moving toward a digital system. The ATM withdrawal system is an important part of this change. It helps millions of beneficiaries receive their money directly, safely, and with respect, without depending on anyone else. By connecting the BISP payment system with bank accounts, millions of women who were previously unbanked are now becoming part of the formal financial system. ATM access gives women a private and safe way to withdraw their money, which helps them avoid the feeling of taking charity. Direct ATM withdrawal also decreases eligible fees or faces deductions. It also removes agents and middlemen.

Early Digital Tools

Then BISP introduced Debit Cards and Smart Cards. These cards are sometimes misused and face problems like card theft and fraud.

Beneficiaries get payment with a thumbprint. ATM transactions ensure full payment without any fees. 

Partner Banks for BISP ATM Withdrawals

In 2026, BISP payments are mainly given through partner banks and their biometric ATMs. The goal is to make it easier and safer for beneficiaries all over Pakistan. The government works with six banks to make payments, and it encourages using digital methods to reach people everywhere.

BISP works with several banks to give money through ATMs and payment centers. The main partner banks are:

• HBL
• Bank Alfalah:
• Mobilink Microfinance Bank

Role of Biometric ATMs

Biometric verification (fingerprint scanning) is very important. It makes sure only the real beneficiary can get the money.

• Security: Fingerprints are linked to the beneficiary’s CNIC, which stops fraud.
• Efficiency: Withdrawals are faster. People don’t always need a card or PIN—they can use CNIC + OTP sent to their mobile.
• Transparency: Every transaction is recorded, so beneficiaries get the full payment without deductions.

Normal ATM vs BISP ATM

Availability of ATMs

• Urban Areas: Cities have many biometric ATMs from partner banks, so access is easy.
• Rural/Remote Areas: It used to be hard, with people relying on BISP camps or agents. Now, more banks, including microfinance banks, are helping to make ATMs closer to villages and reduce travel.

Government Plans to Expand ATM Access

• More Bank Partnerships: Now six banks instead of two, to provide wider coverage and better services.
• BISP Sahulat Account: A special account for beneficiaries. Payments go directly into their account, and they can use any bank branch or ATM.
• Digital Integration: Payments are linked with RAAST, Pakistan’s first micro-payment system, for faster and transparent transfers.
• Mobile Banking: Plans to use mobile apps to track payments and find nearby ATMs or payment centers, especially in remote areas.
