SadaPay was granted approval by the State Bank of Pakistan at the end of 2020 to begin pilot operations.

With time, they plan to add more features and products based on user feedback.

SadaPay chose IDEMIA’s Global Fintech Accelerator Card Program in order to effectively scale-up and meet these demands.
