bKash cuts cash withdrawal charge

Mobile financial service provider bKash is marking its 10th anniversary offering customers cash withdrawals at a reduced rate of Tk 14.90 per Tk 1,000 through one agent of their choice and ATMs of several commercial banks.  

When availing cash from any other agent or over Tk 25,000 a month, the charge will be Tk 18.50, says a press release.

Customers can add a favourite agent number tapping on the "Cash Out" icon in the bKash app or dialling USSD code *247# and selecting "Priyo Number" from the "My bKash" menu.

The favourite agent number can be changed at the end of each calendar month.
