In line with Pakistan's back-to-back strides to attain countrywide digitalisation, Pakistan’s leading digital operator Jazz has invested Rs25.5 billion to expedite Pakistan’s digital transformation.

The widely popular telecom firm also reported a stable growth of 17.7% in the first half of 2025.

“Our second quarter results reflect not only strong financial performance but also our commitment to Pakistan’s digital future,” saoid Jazz CEO Aamir Ibrahim.

It was learned that such a hefty investment will be directed to expanding Jazz's 4G coverage, enhancing digital platforms, and promoting financial inclusion, all of which will give millions of Pakistanis access to affordable, high-quality digital services.

In the second quarter of 2025, Jazz performed well, bagging a revenue increase of 15.3% year-on-year. This growth is said to be driven by resilient telecom operations and a remarkable 35.7% increase in revenue from digital, which now constitutes 28.1% of total revenue, up from 23.9% last year.

Similarly, EBITDA saw a slight hike of 5.4%, achieving a margin of 41.6%, while capital expenditure of Rs16bn showed Jazz’s commitment to enhancing Pakistan’s digital infrastructure.

JazzCash, the company's leading digital financial service in Pakistan, processed a gross transaction value of Rs11.7 trillion over the past twelve months, serving over 21 million monthly active users with a network of 367,000 active merchants and nearly 107,000 agents.
