New Way to Receive Payments
This time, payments are made through specific campsites rather than the franchise structure. The goal is to increase openness and make it easier for consumers to get their money. If you live in one of the districts covered by the program, you can pick up your money at the local BISP campsite. Payments can only be done at certain campgrounds, therefore if you relocate to another district, your payment may be delayed. Payments will be distributed at the campgrounds. The payment process is transparent. Moving districts can cause delays in your payments.
How to Check Payment Status
If you have registered for the Benazir Kafalat program, you can quickly check the status of your payment online. Here’s how. Access the 8171 web interface from your mobile device. Enter your ID card number and the verification code that appears on the screen. Once submitted, your payment information will be shown. You can also verify the status of your payment by sending your ID card number to 8171. If your payment is processed, you will be contacted.
