What Are Prize Bonds in Pakistan?
Prize Bonds are government-backed savings instruments issued by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and managed by the National Savings Division. Unlike traditional investments, prize bonds don't earn interest. Instead, they enter you into quarterly draws where you can win substantial cash prizes. Each bond is identified by a unique 6-digit number, and the draws are held in major cities across Pakistan including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, Quetta, Hyderabad, Multan, and Faisalabad.
Prize bonds are available in multiple denominations: Rs. 100, Rs. 200, Rs. 750, Rs. 15,000, Rs. 25,000, and Rs. 40,000. Each denomination has its own prize structure and draw schedule. Prize bonds can be purchased from any State Bank of Pakistan branch, National Savings center, or authorized commercial bank.
