Nagad, the digital financial wing of the Bangladesh Post Office, has shattered its previous records by reaching an unprecedented annual transaction milestone. In the recently concluded 2025 calendar year, the mobile financial service (MFS) processed a staggering 380,000 crore BDT in total transactions. This represents a significant surge from the 330,000 crore BDT recorded in 2024, underlining the rapid digitisation of the Bangladeshi economy and the growing dominance of Nagad in the fintech sector.
The institution did not merely excel on an annual basis; it also redefined its monthly performance benchmarks. December 2025 proved to be the most lucrative month in the company’s six-year history, with customers transacting 35,530 crore BDT. Remarkably, the provider broke its own monthly transaction record three times over the course of the year, demonstrating a consistent upward trajectory in consumer engagement.
In an official press release, the Administrator of Nagad, Md. Mezbaul Haque, extended his gratitude to the customers and employees who facilitated this growth. He attributed the success to a combination of strategic marketing campaigns and the company’s “customer-first” philosophy, which includes maintaining the lowest “cash-out” charges in the local market. “As a digital transaction arm of the Post Office, we are focused on providing enhanced security for our users’ funds. This trust has encouraged new users to join our platform while existing clients increase their daily transaction frequency,” he noted.
Since its inception roughly six years ago, Nagad has firmly established itself as a market leader. The record-breaking figures of 2025 were driven by a diverse array of services, including person-to-person transfers (Send Money), utility bill payments, mobile recharges, and crucially, an influx of inward foreign remittances. The ability to handle such high volumes reflects the robust technological infrastructure the firm has developed to support its burgeoning subscriber base.
| Period | Transaction Volume (BDT Crore) | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Total Year 2024 | 330,000 | Previous Record |
| Total Year 2025 | 380,000 | Current All-Time High |
| June 2024 | 32,000 | 2024 Monthly Peak |
| March 2025 | 34,000 | 2025 Milestone 1 |
| October 2025 | 34,705 | 2025 Milestone 2 |
| December 2025 | 35,530 | Highest Monthly Record |
The data reveals that Nagad’s growth is not seasonal but systemic. With the monthly peak moving from 32,000 crore BDT in mid-2024 to over 35,500 crore BDT by the end of 2025, the platform is increasingly becoming the primary financial gateway for millions of Bangladeshis.
