Safe Steps to Collect Your BISP Payment
Once you’ve confirmed eligibility, here’s how you can safely collect your funds:
Taking your original CNIC photocopies won’t work for biometric verification.
- Visit the nearest payment center, official BISP campsite, or HBL Konnect agent.
- Biometric fingerprint verification is mandatory. No thumb match, no payment.
- Don’t forget to take a printed receipt after collecting the money.
- Count your money on the spot before leaving the counter.
Most importantly, don’t trust random agents offering help outside payment sites. Never share your CNIC or fingerprints with anyone except the official staff.
