The State Bank and Pakistan Telecommunication Authority have introduced the innovative Asaan Mobile Account project, enabling low-income individuals to register online bank accounts and conduct transactions using mobile phones without requiring internet access.
The program has been initiated in partnership with branchless banking providers, telecommunications operators, and various development collaborators.
Under the national financial inclusion policy, the Asaan Mobile account enables consumers to access the AMA platform using the shortcode *2262#.
Establishing an Asaan Mobile Account is remarkably simple and swift, and it also offers the capability to connect your current branchless bank account.
At present, there are 13 banks offering branchless banking services on the AMA platform.
Customers can promptly open bank accounts at any designated bank and perform transactions possible on the AMA platform.
