Open Letter to Mr. Amir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz Pakistan
Subject: Please Bring Smartphone Installments to Daraz Through JazzCash
Dear Mr. Amir Ibrahim,
Assalam-o-Alaikum.
Today, while browsing Daraz, I noticed that customers can purchase phones on installments through several banks. However, I was surprised to see that there is no option for millions of JazzCash users to buy these phones through their Jazz accounts.
This means that a person who has a credit card can easily buy a phone, but a hardworking laborer, driver, student, teacher, farmer, or housewife who uses JazzCash every day is left behind simply because they do not have a bank account.
I humbly request you to have discussions with Daraz and mobile manufacturers to introduce JazzCash Smartphone Installments.
Imagine the impact if a Pakistani could buy a Rs. 20,000–40,000 smartphone by simply paying Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 1,500 every month through his or her JazzCash account.
Such a service would:
* Enable millions of Pakistanis to access AI and digital education.
* Help students learn online.
* Create opportunities for freelancing and remote jobs.
* Increase financial inclusion.
* Expand the JazzCash ecosystem.
* Accelerate Pakistan’s digital transformation.
Most importantly, this program would include the millions of Pakistanis who do not have credit cards or traditional bank accounts.
Today, high markups of 50% to 70% on long-term installment plans make smartphones unnecessarily expensive. I believe Jazz can create a simpler, fairer, and more inclusive model for ordinary Pakistanis.
Just as Jazz transformed digital payments through JazzCash, I believe it can now transform digital access by making smartphones affordable for everyone.
A monthly installment of Rs. 1,000 or Rs. 1,500 is manageable for most families. What they need is not charity; they need access.
I sincerely hope Jazz will consider launching a “Smartphone for Every Pakistani” initiative in partnership with Daraz, handset manufacturers, and the Government of Pakistan.
Because in the age of Artificial Intelligence, a smartphone is not a luxury.
It is a school.
It is a bank.
It is a library.
It is an office.
And for millions of Pakistanis, it is a pathway out of poverty.
With respect and hope,
Rehan Allahwala
