Jazz, Pakistan’s leading digital operator, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NADRA Technologies Limited (NTL), the commercial arm of the National Database and Registration Authority, to expand access to digital citizen services nationwide. The agreement is designed to leverage technology to enhance convenience, inclusion, and trust throughout Pakistan’s digital ecosystem, reflecting growing momentum in public-private collaboration to improve service delivery for citizens and businesses alike. By combining their respective expertise, the partners aim to streamline access to essential services, bringing more Pakistanis into the digital economy.
Through this collaboration, Jazz and NTL plan to simplify how individuals and enterprises interact with critical government and financial services. This includes the development of secure, accessible, and reliable digital solutions that can strengthen financial inclusion and e-government facilitation. Both organisations view this initiative as a way to create socio-economic opportunities, support entrepreneurship, and empower marginalized communities to participate more effectively in the country’s digital transformation. With an emphasis on security and trust, the partnership also seeks to bolster Pakistan’s standing as a regional leader in digital infrastructure and citizen-centric platforms.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Aamir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz, said that this partnership with NADRA Technologies Limited reflects Jazz’s ServiceCo vision of moving beyond connectivity to develop platforms that improve lives and livelihoods. By integrating Jazz’s extensive digital infrastructure with NTL’s trusted identity services, the collaboration creates a stronger foundation for inclusive access to essential services and digital financial tools for people across the country. This synergy aligns directly with the needs of a rapidly digitising population and the government’s broader push to modernise citizen services.
The agreement underscores the shared commitment of Jazz and NTL to advance the Government of Pakistan’s Digital Pakistan agenda. Both organisations intend to accelerate the nation’s digital transformation by delivering more efficient, transparent, and user-friendly services to millions of citizens. The initiative is expected to foster economic resilience, expand inclusive access to essential public and financial services, and support the creation of a robust digital ecosystem capable of driving sustainable growth. By working together, Jazz and NTL aim to demonstrate how public-private cooperation can deliver tangible benefits and ensure that digital transformation reaches every corner of Pakistan.
