The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has started distributing the October installment of PKR 10,500 to eligible beneficiaries across Pakistan. These BISP campsite payments are being handed out at special BISP campsites, a new method introduced to make the process smoother. If you haven’t received your payments yet, here’s what you need to know.
What is BISP 10500 Campsite Payment?
For the first time, BISP is distributing payments through designated campsites instead of retail shops or Tehsil centers. The PKR 10,500 payments are for the October period, and only those who have received a confirmation message from 8171 are eligible to collect their payments at these camps.

How to Check Your BISP 10500 Eligibility?
Before heading to a BISP campsite, you need to confirm your eligibility. Follow these steps to check:
- Visit the BISP Website: Open your browser and go to 8171.bisp.gov.pk.
- Enter Your CNIC Number: You’ll see a form on the screen. Enter your CNIC number in the first box.
- Submit the Captcha Code: Type the captcha code correctly and click on the submit button.
- Check Your Status: Once submitted, you will be redirected to another page where you can see if you are eligible for the payment.

What to Do If You Are Eligible?
If you receive a message from 8171 confirming your payment, you can visit your local BISP campsite to collect your PKR 10,500. Here’s what you need to do:
- Visit the Campsite: Go to the campsite mentioned in your 8171 message.
- Verification Process: At the campsite, officials will verify your CNIC and other details.
- Receive Your Token: After verification, you will be given a token and asked to wait for your turn.
- Collect Your Payment: When called, present your CNIC to the POS agent, and you will receive your payment.
What If You Haven’t Received a Message?
If you haven’t received a message from 8171, you are not eligible to receive the payment at this time. You will have to wait until your name is added to the program in the next payment cycle, likely in September.
Eligibility Criteria for BISP Payments
To qualify for the BISP payments, you must meet the following criteria:
- Pakistani Resident: The applicant must be a resident of Pakistan.
- No Other Financial Support: The applicant should not be receiving financial aid from other programs.
- Below the Poverty Line: The applicant’s standard of living must be below the poverty line.
Conclusion
Getting your BISP 10500 payment in October is straightforward if you follow the steps mentioned above. Make sure to verify your eligibility before visiting the campsite, and bring all the necessary documents. If you are not eligible yet, don’t worry—you might be added to the program in the next payment cycle.
