Nagad recently has crossed a major milestone as its daily transaction crossed Tk 200 crore, said Tanvir A Mishuk, managing director of Nagad, at a ceremony on Thursday.

The government has set a target for Nagad to reach the Tk 200-crore daily transaction mark by January next year. The country's fastest-growing digital financial carrier has achieved the target much ahead of the deadline.

Earlier in January this year, Nagad crossed the milestone of a daily transaction of Tk 100 crore.

Tanvir A Mishuk, managing director of the second-largest MFS carrier in the country, attributed the rapid advancement of Nagad to the introduction of state-of-the-art technological innovations and customer-friendly services. He said, "We are working towards the goal of making all conventional services available on Nagad under the slogan of 'Everything will be through Nagad'. And for that, we are working every day in the hope of achieving the impossible.

 Opening a Nagad account is just a dial away, and anyone can open the account by simply dialing *167# from their mobile phones. It was not possible anywhere else in the world, but Nagad has made it possible. There was a time when a lot had to be done to open an account. In just one and a half years of inception, Nagad has reached the milestone of Tk 200 crore. It is a great pleasure for us.”

Tanvir A. Mishuk said, "Sajeeb Wazed Joy, Information and Communication Technology Affair adviser to the Hon'ble Prime Minister said that Nagad should touch the Tk 200 crore daily transaction mark before January 2021, which we have already done. I would like to thank and express our graduate to the Prime Minister for giving us the opportunity to serve the people. At the same time, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Information and Communication Technology Affairs Adviser of the Hon'ble Prime Minister for advice and guidance.”
