The government has prioritised digitising public services in Bangladesh since 2009. Digitised government-to-person (G2P) payments reduce the costs, uncertainties, and process delays associated with service delivery. They also reduce the expenses and time spent on receiving payments. A government study in Bangladesh has found that digital cash transfers increased service efficiency and financial inclusion over the years. G2P payments have gained more traction especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, as they require little to no physical interaction.
