Since 2024, FinVolution has officially launched its fintech platform, Daira, in Pakistan, dedicated to providing localized, secure, and efficient inclusive financial services to local users. In June 2025, Daira obtained a Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) license from the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) , building upon the Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) license it received from the SECP in 2024. These regulatory approvals mark a significant milestone in strengthening the company’s local compliance framework and accelerating business implementation.
Looking ahead, Daira will continue to leverage FinVolution’s 18 years of technological expertise and localization experience in the fintech sector. The platform aims to deepen collaboration with local partners and drive the development of digital inclusive finance in Pakistan.
