The citizen centric platform aims to improve financial inclusion and strengthen the current technological infrastructure of the financial industry. It is an important step towards the vision of a transparent and digital Pakistan.”

“1LINK is delighted to bring PITB onboard as a bill aggregator on its grid. The rise of digital payments and the convergence of innovative technologies is the most significant development in the times of pandemic. This alliance of 1LINK and PITB can contribute significantly towards the digital payments landscape and realize the true potential of inclusive growth across Pakistan,” said CEO 1LINK Najeeb Agrawalla.
