BKash cuts cash-out charge

Mobile financial service provider bKash has cut its cash-out charge to make customer transactions more affordable.

They can now cash out up to Tk 25,000 per month from a favourite agent (Priyo Agent) at a reduced charge of Tk 14.90 per thousand.

This includes all costs, including VAT, and customers need not pay any extra charge, said a press release.

Recent analysis on bKash transactions shows that 95 percent customers cashout within 25,000 Taka 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 the favorite agent number, if required.
