Eid to be more colorful with salami thru bKash

Over the past few years, sending and receiving Eid Salami through bKash has become an essential part of celebrating Eid-ul-Fitr. The popular slogan “Eid er chand akashe, Salami din bKash-e”, fun messages, and sharing Eid cards on social media have added even more festivity for people of all generations.

Centred on this celebration, various innovative features of the bKash app, including QR Code, Request Money, Group Send Money, and Digital Eid Cards, have brought a new dimension to sending Eid Salami.

Whether it’s office colleagues, university seniors, relatives, or neighbours, exchanging Salami brings people emotionally closer. With just a few taps on the bKash app, anyone can share this joy - keeping loved ones connected even from hundreds of miles away. Adding a heartfelt message alongside the Salami makes the bond even stronger.

Let’s look at the details of exchanging Eid Salami through bKash -

Multiple Salami at once with Group Send Money

Those who want to send Salami to multiple people at once can easily use the Group Send Money feature of bKash. To use it, they need to go to the ‘Send Money’ icon on the bKash app, tap on ‘Group Send Money’, and add up to 7 numbers to create a group. Then, enter the total amount to send and choose whether to divide it equally among all numbers or set different amounts for each recipient. A customer can also create multiple groups to send Salami.

Add a colourful Eid Card

While sending Salami, customers can select colourful Eid Cards available in the bKash app and write heartfelt messages - expressing emotions, affection, and love. Messages can be written in both Bangla and English.

Request Money to ask for Salami

For the enthusiastic ‘Salami Hunters’, the ‘Request Money’ feature in the bKash app is a powerful tool. By tapping on the Request Money icon in the app, users can send Salami requests to 10 different bKash accounts - either individually or through a group. Recipients can view the request via notification or from the Request Money dashboard and respond by sending Salami instantly.

Send Money bundles to reduce cost

To reduce the cost of sending Salami to many people through Send Money, customers can purchase their preferred Send Money Bundles from the ‘My bKash’ section of the app. Currently, bundles of 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 Send Money transactions are available. Each bundle is valid for 30 days.
