JazzCash, Easypaisa & Raast Payout Integration
Karachi and Lahore freelancers bill in dollars and get paid in cards. WePesa converts that into rupees on JazzCash or Easypaisa — or straight into a bank account over Raast.
Your client paid in an Amazon or Apple card and you need PKR you can actually spend — for a bill, for fees, for groceries. Here is exactly how the Pakistani payout leg behaves, including the limits the SBP sets rather than us.

How it works
From gift card to settled payout.
01
Lock the PKR quote
Live USD/PKR plus the card's rate, locked for 10 minutes. The rupee moves — the lock is why the number doesn't.
02
Confirm the account title
We resolve the wallet or IBAN account title and display it before release. A mistyped digit fails here rather than paying a stranger.
03
Wallet or Raast settles
Wallets credit in minutes. Raast bank transfers are near-instant during operating hours and queue outside them.
Coverage
Providers, banks, and wallets we settle to.
| Destination | Type | Notes | Typical settle |
|---|---|---|---|
| JazzCash | Wallet | Largest wallet base | 2–6 min |
| Easypaisa | Wallet | Strong agent coverage | 2–8 min |
| Raast (any IBAN) | Bank | Instant SBP rail | 1–10 min |
| 1LINK / IBFT | Bank | Fallback when Raast is degraded | 10–40 min |
| USDT (TRC-20) | Crypto | Avoid rupee volatility | ≈30s |
Limits & fees
Exactly what lands in your account.
| Tier | Per transaction | Per day | KYC needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| First trade | PKR 50,000 | PKR 50,000 | Phone + e-mail |
| CNIC verified | PKR 400,000 | PKR 1,000,000 | CNIC + selfie |
| Hub / pro trader | By agreement | By agreement | Full KYB |
| Above wallet cap | Auto-split | Raast for the excess | As above |
Rail fees are absorbed by WePesa unless a row says otherwise. The quote you lock is the amount that settles.
Reliability
How we keep the rail up when the network isn't.
Level-0 wallet ceilings
Unverified wallets carry low monthly caps set by the operator. We check tier headroom before quoting and suggest Raast when the wallet can't hold the amount.
Raast window handling
Outside Raast hours, transfers queue at the locked rate and release at the next window instead of being re-quoted.
Freelancer-friendly records
Every payout carries a downloadable statement with the USD source amount and applied rate — the document your bank or tax filing will ask for.
Escrow, not trust
The gift card is verified in escrow before any rupee moves, and returns to you unredeemed if the payout can't complete.
For builders
Trigger payouts programmatically.

FAQ
What sellers ask about this rail.
Do you support Raast bank transfers?+
Yes — any Pakistani IBAN. It's the best option above wallet ceilings or when you want the money in a salary account.
Is CNIC verification mandatory?+
Only above PKR 50,000 in a first trade. Our regulated local partner requires it for higher limits.
Which card brands pay best in Pakistan?+
US Amazon, Apple and Steam cards top the board consistently. Regional and UK variants run a few points lower — the catalog shows live rates.
Why did my wallet payout split into two?+
Your wallet tier capped a single transaction. We split rather than fail so you still receive the full amount.
Can I take USDT instead of rupees?+
Yes. Many Pakistani freelancers do, then off-ramp to a wallet later from the WePesa balance.
