Easypaisa is a money transfer and a virtual bank initiative launched by Telenor years ago.
It has been incredibly successful in connecting alot of places in Pakistan by letting you send money to other cities through merchants, that can be utilized by buyers and sellers in various places around the country.
It also has a virtual bank app which allows you to make payments digitally to your banks, various bills to companies, and as well as easyload into any network of a phone.
All in All! It makes your life easy and gives you a far more comfortable method to use your money.
Download it on Google Playstore or Apple's AppStore.

F.A.Q
Is this app a replacement for my bank?
No, this whole thing is in an infant stage. Its not a replacement for your bank.
Just top up this account and use it as your digital wallet.
Is there any Limit to usage?
Yes, theres a 15K Daily, 50K Monthly, and 200K yearly. Limit.
Please use it wisely.
Will Virtual Debit Card work on websites like AliExpress, Ebay and Amazon?
Yes, Most likely. If MasterCard is accepted, then it'll work.
Will my cards stay? And Can I make them again for free anytime?
According to the ToS, It seems that this is only available for a limited time since they are subjected to change anytime.
More information on these terms are here :- 1. Terms & Conditions 2. Schedule of Charges
Can't purchase anything from a site or store!
1. Make sure that place accepts debit cards.
2. Make sure you're not applying for a subscription.
3. Make sure you've enough balance in your EP account / see if your card limit has reached, if so, remake.
4. Make sure your account address matches that of your NIC.
Can't send money to your account anymore? You cant pay anywhere?
Call Telenor Helpline and get your limit increased.
Why? Some sort of procedure...
Do not save your card on websites.
For some reason, the card or website thinks its a subscription agreement and therefore, deny's further payment.
Do not block or pause your card while you're in an ongoing deal/purchase.
This will not let you get your refund or further payments will get declined in some websites.
Best solution: Keep only needed money in your account to keep it safe. So you dont have to pause the card.
