Telenor recently launched a service called ‘Money Transfer’ under the banner of Easy Paisa, through which any Pakistani citizen can transfer Money across the country through 4,000 outlets.
This post will brief the process and steps involved in sending/receiving money through Money Transfer.
To Send Money through ‘Money Transfer’
The Sender needs to bring and provide the following for a Money Transfer:
- His/her original & valid Nadra CNIC along with 1 Photocopy (Mandatory)
- Receiving person’s valid Nadra CNIC Number (Mandatory)
- His/her own mobile phone number (optional) & receiver’s mobile phone number (Optional)
If you have above mentioned three things, simply go to any authorized Easy Paisa outlet and do following
- Tell retailer the amount of money and provide up-mentioned 3 things
- Retailer will do the transaction using his/her mobile phone (just like easy share), and will ask you to enter a pass code or secret code to enter. Do not tell this secret code to everyone.
- Once transaction is done, you will be given a Transaction ID and a hard copy of receipt.
- Pay retailer the money + service charges (chart about service charges is given below)
- If the Sender and Receiver mobile phone numbers are provided, Both the Sender and Receiver will be able to receive transaction information via a SMS message. You will not receive pass code in SMS, just the transaction ID, amount and CNIC numbers.
Important: Please do not waste/dispose of receipt, as it is going to be your only proof that you sent this money. Also note that Pass Code should not be given to any one…
Now give this Transaction ID and pass code you entered to receiving party, and that’s it. You are done with sending money.

Aamir bhai pls elaborate its impact on other money transfer services operational in pakistan.
Product analysis is in pipeline…
So we can receive money from any Easy Paisa retailer anywhere, without any concern of from where it has been sent and to where it has been sent?
Means there is not geographical restriction as far as within Pakistan. we just need the Trns. ID and Pass, that pretty handy.
yea – that’s correct. Send from anywhere, receive from anywhere
The three transaction per month limit is a deal breaker. I can’t use this service to provide subscription services to my work site.
I feel the charges are quite high for money transfer. Imagine, expatriates can send money in seconds to Pakistan by paying nominal amount and without any taxes etc etc.
Telenor charges are quite high and they are charging more as amount is getting high… otherwise process and service time is same for small or big transfer (I think no one can send more than 10000).
Post Office is doing this service (although not speedy) but charges 30Rs approx for 5000 transfer of money and no deducts any charges. Govt should not apply same Telecom charges for money transfer on Telenor because Telecom taxes are more than other industries. It is not fair at all.
regards
They are not charging Telecom charges on this money transfer. They are charging regular GST i.e 16%
Great concept, but the video seems like it’s been made by an amateur. The storyboarding is average (not bad), but the voiceover and music is awful. I’m glad to see them trying to use the ultra-popular http://www.commoncraft.com approach but the weird accent, horrible dialogue and annoying background music creates a truly painful experience. They would have been better off scripting in Urdu – simple, fluent, localized. Telenor, if you’re reading this – please rework the video, and get in touch for feedback!
iam agreed with you.
But Transaction Cost is tooo high its even higher than Online Bank to bank transfer in Pakistan
Transaction charges should not be more than Flat 50 Rs for any amount
Its difficult to approach Tameer Bank branch because rarely people heard this before and for easypaisa shop retailer we never believe him for such amounts.
I gave my photocopy of nic to mobilink and they issued 7 fake numbers on it..why do you expect me to give it to telenor again………
so true the cnic copies has put us already in a lot of trouble by the issuance of the sim on behalf of our cnic to other persons …what guarantees that it won’t be misused again..the system should be changed the copies of cnic should be removed only the examination of original cnic should be made compulsory.
A very valid concern!!
Hey Aamir,
I am Sadia, currently studying in SZABIST. I am working on a thesis ‘the impact of social media on conventional PR Practices in Pakistan’. So can you help me in my thesis by filling up a questionnaire?
Please acknowledge.
Thanks
yea send me the questionnaire..
y not iwill help you in completion your thesis contact me. waiting
hmm everyone knows that CNIC is only issued by NADRA i think using the working nadra again n again with CNIC is useless..
very very good guide aamir
Expensive method.
Not being a pessimist or anything, but I believe this EasyPaisa Money Transfer will not work! WHY? well, the biggest challenge is to convince reatailers to become EasyPaisa member!
WHY?
For one simple reason! looking at the current law and order situation of the country! and recession atmosphere! WHY ON EARTH would anyone agree to collect money on Bank’s behalf! and in the day take it to the bank, or even if they have to just keep it until TAMEER BANK rep comes to pick it up, its a RISK!
XYZ RETAIL SHOP is an easypaisa retailer. Dacoity takes place, who covers the damage? the retailer? or Bank? Insurance Company!!! RIGHT? it’ll be a big hassle still to arrange insurance for so many retailers! and if so, what’s the guarantee that a retailer does not himself arrange a dacoity and takes all the money putting whole loss on Insurer? and then who’d pay the Premium INCASE insurance cover is there?
DO U really think that for Rs 300/10,000 a retailer would bind his 10,000 for a day? I dont think so!!! this whole idea is made in an airconditioner office with probably some foriegn university graduates who doesn’t know S**T about local scenario!
I dont mean to scare away people, but since its inception, i was thinkin on these flaws of the system, and unless and until TAMEER BANK or TELENOR address all these issues, i don’t think I’d trust EASY PAISA with my money! not even 10,000Rs!
@ Usman
You should ask an easypaisa shopkeeper this question.
I mean they said 2500 easypaisa shops when they launched Bills Payments in October and now they say 4000 shop. Are these shops signing up at gunpoint or voluntarily? What is the process?
I am a shop keeper and wants to start easy paisa and utilit bills at my shop. How can i start this.
please send me detail.
Thsnks,
Rahmatullah Peshawar.
Same question…does anyone know the process of becoming an Easy Paisa retailer?

They are charging more than enough. its of no use :-(
let me share my experience of this service, i live in Islamabad and have a car that is leased by a bank in multan, i need to send installments of around Rs7000 every month to Multan to my relative who then submitt it, i send it through bank draft. I cant send it all the time through the bank that i have account as where i work is far away. Bank takes Rs650 as bank draft charges to process the draft of Rs.7000 whereas through easypaisa Money Transfer i only paid Rs.290 extra
so all those who are saying that this is expensive should check the rates again.
anyways a good service. very user friendly even for illiterate ones. it removed monopolies of banks and their complex system of drafting.
