Mobilink Bank, Pakistan’s leading digital microfinance institution, and Daraz Pakistan, the nation’s largest e-commerce platform, today announced a landmark partnership to drive financial inclusion, digital enablement, and sustainable growth for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The collaboration aims to equip entrepreneurs—particularly women-led businesses—with tailored financial solutions and access to a nationwide digital marketplace, fostering economic resilience at the grassroots level.
Under the agreement, Mobilink Bank will provide Daraz-affiliated MSMEs with customized financing options ranging from PKR 25,000 to PKR 3 million, empowering entrepreneurs to scale operations, manage cash flows, and innovate. Simultaneously, Daraz will offer these businesses a robust digital platform to showcase and sell products, unlocking access to millions of online consumers.
The partnership also introduces green financing initiatives for Daraz employees and suppliers, including loans for home solar systems and e-bikes, coupled with free banking services. These efforts align with both organizations’ commitment to sustainability and inclusive economic development.
Haaris Mahmood Chaudhary, President & CEO of Mobilink Bank, emphasized the transformative potential of the alliance: “By merging Mobilink Bank’s fintech expertise with Daraz’s digital reach, we’re creating a holistic ecosystem for MSMEs to thrive. This isn’t just about loans—it’s about equipping entrepreneurs with the tools to build resilient, future-ready businesses.”
Ehsan Saya, Managing Director of Daraz Pakistan & Sri Lanka, added: “Small businesses are the backbone of Pakistan’s economy. Through this partnership, we’re dismantling barriers by integrating financial accessibility with e-commerce opportunities. Our goal is to ensure every entrepreneur, regardless of size or location, can compete in the digital age.”
The collaboration will soon roll out QR code-based payment solutions for Daraz deliveries, enhancing convenience and security for customers. Mobilink Bank is also exploring cash deposit facilities at its branches to simplify cash flow management for Daraz sellers.
This partnership underscores a shared vision to strengthen Pakistan’s entrepreneurial ecosystem through innovation and inclusivity. By addressing critical gaps in finance and digital access, Mobilink Bank and Daraz aim to unlock long-term macroeconomic growth while uplifting underserved communities.
