Following directives from the office of Mr. Nahid Islam, advisor to the Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications, and Information Technology and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, this MFS provider of Bangladesh Postal Department has launched this merchant account to collect relief funds.

Recently, Bangladesh’s southeastern region has experienced one of the most severe floods in history, leaving millions of people grappling with shortages of food and water. The government has taken extensive measures to support these affected individuals. Those interested can contribute to the government’s relief fund.

Meanwhile, the daily and monthly transaction limits for Nagad have been increased beyond the usual government and private donation efforts.

Following the advisor’s directive, Nagad promptly opened the special account for donation collection. Moreover, the increase in the transaction limits, beyond promoting donations by private charitable organisations, provides some relief to Nagad customers.
