Islamabad – October 18, 2016: JazzCash – the country’s fastest growing mobile financial service provider has announced a partnership with Tranglo, a global cross-border digital remittance hub. This highlights Jazz’s commitment of digitizing its products and services with respect to changing times and global industry practices.
Through the partnership, Tranglo’s global network of money service / remittance providers can now offer international money transfer service to JazzCash users. LycaRemit becomes the launch partner to enable mobile / electronic remittances from the UK to JazzCash mobile accounts and cash collection centers as well.

Speaking about the partnership, Aniqa Afzal Sandhu, VP – Digital and Mobile Financial Services, Mobilink, stated: “We are excited to embark on the next phase of our journey to digitalize our customer’s financial needs in a convenient and reliable manner by joining hands with Tranglo.

Through such partnerships, we look forward to further empowering our rapidly increasing Mobile Account customers with access to retail and online payments.”
By utilizing this initiative, customers receiving international remittances in JazzCash Mobile Accounts can cash-out at more than 65,000 retailers and 10,000 automated teller machines (ATMs) across the country.
