PAGE Development Centre operates through 162 branches nationwide, serving over 210,000 members, many of whom reside in remote or rural areas. By integrating bKash's microfinance service, the centre enables these members to carry out financial transactions easily and safely, without visiting MFI branches or handling cash.
This partnership will help PAGE Development Centre reduce operational workload, speed up collection processes, and enhance transparency in its financial services. bKash further strengthens its position in the microfinance sector through this collaboration, aligning with its broader mission of driving digital financial inclusion across Bangladesh.
