In line with the Prime Minister’s vision of making it easier for Pakistanis living abroad, the SBP will launch the Sohni Dharti Remittance Programme.
The Sohni Dharti Remittance Program aims to encourage non-resident Pakistanis to send money to their families through legal banking channels.
Overseas Pakistanis will receive reward points for remittances sent through legal channels under the program. These points will be automatically collected as a virtual card in three tiers on the mobile app: Green, Gold, and Platinum.

These reward points will allow them to receive free services from the government. The rewards are international air tickets, free extra language, FBR duty payments, offers on utility store purchasing, passport, or NICOP renewal fees concession.
1LINK has developed and launched a mobile app for Android and iOS that allows users to register as a Remitter (the one who is sending money) and earn points on remittances sent to Pakistan. Remitters can use the Mobile App to enroll their beneficiaries (money receivers) and transfer loyalty points to them.
Sohni Dharti Remittance app is available on the Play Store and Goggle play as well.
