bKash, a leading mobile financial service provider in the country, has reduced its ‘cash out’ charge to make customer transactions more affordable.
Customers can now cash out up to Tk 25,000 per month from a favorite agent (Priyo Agent) at a reduced charge of Tk 14.90 per Tk 1,000, said a press release on Friday.
This comprises all costs, including VAT, and customers need not pay any extra charge, the release added.
Any of bKash's 55 million customers can now enjoy the reduced cash out charge.
Recent analysis on bKash transactions shows that 95 percent of customers cash out up to Tk 25,000 per month.
Keeping that in mind, bKash has come up with this reduced charge to ensure a more affordable service marking its 10th anniversary.
To avail the service, a customer has to add a favorite bKash agent number in every calendar month.
At the end of each calendar month, customers can change their favorite agent number, if required.
Customers can also add a 'Priyo Agent' through dialing USSD code *247# and selecting 'Priyo Number' from 'My bKash' menu.
