IPDC EZ, a groundbreaking app by IPDC Finance has been declared as the winner in Fintech Innovation of the Year (NBFI) category in the prestigious Bangladesh Fintech Award 2023.

The Fintech Innovation category recognizes IPDC EZ as an app that is transforming the consumer finance landscape and creating a profound impact on planned purchases. At the heart of IPDC EZ is the revolutionary ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ concept. By offering a cardless 0% EMI facility, IPDC EZ empowers consumers to make essential purchases like electronic products, home appliances, furniture, travel packages without the need for a credit card. This innovation has not only elevated living standards by providing access to electronics, furniture, and home appliances but has also brought in more customers to whom IPDC can offer their general services as well.
Bangladesh Fintech Award recognizes the organizations and initiatives which are driving the financial industry to become more inclusive and modern through Fintech. IPDC EZ stood out for its visionary approach to addressing a critical gap in the market – the absence of an accessible and convenient financing option for planned purchases.
Mominul Islam, the Managing Director & CEO of IPDC said, “IPDC has always been striving to contribute to the improvement of the living standard of our people with technological innovation. The way Bangladesh is moving forward towards being ‘Smart Bangladesh’, it is the demand of time to align with the pace by bringing in relevant financial services. This award is a testament to our commitment to redefining financial services and making a meaningful difference in the lives of Bangladesh’s population. IPDC EZ is more than just an app – it’s a transformational idea that empowers households, fuels economic growth, and reshapes the consumer finance landscape. We are honored to receive this recognition and will continue to drive positive change in the industry.”
