TBT DESK: In a move set to boost digital convenience for millions, bKash has joined hands with Robi and Airtel to offer customers seamless payment and account services through their mobile apps, all without the need for a PIN.
From now on, users of the "My Robi" and "My Airtel" apps can pay for talk-time, internet, and other services by simply linking their bKash accounts. With bKash designated as a "preferred payment partner," transactions can be completed in a single click using digital consent - no PINs, no OTPs, just quick and secure payments, reads a press release.
That's not all - bKash has been fully integrated into the user journey. Customers can now open a bKash account directly from the "My Robi" app. With a dedicated "bKash Registration" icon under the "Service" section, signing up for bKash is easier than ever.
Once a user gives consent, the process begins, and the customer can complete the necessary e-KYC steps to activate their account.
Additionally, Robi and Airtel users can explore and purchase custom mobile plans - like Robi's "Easy Plan" or Airtel's "My Pack" - straight from the bKash app. It's all part of an effort to offer more flexibility and smarter solutions for mobile users in Sunday's fast-paced, digital-first world.
This collaboration signals a major step forward in enhancing mobile financial services in Bangladesh, making life simpler, safer, and more efficient for users across the country.
