Easypaisa has become a vital part of everyday life in Pakistan, allowing millions to send money, pay bills, top-up mobile balance, and shop online—all from the convenience of a mobile phone. Whether you’re managing daily expenses or receiving funds from family, having an active Easypaisa account is essential for smooth and secure transactions.
However, accounts can sometimes get deactivated due to inactivity, identity verification issues, or repeated incorrect PIN entries. In other cases, users may forget their login details or unknowingly trigger a temporary block on their wallet.
Common Reasons Why Your Easypaisa Account Gets Deactivated
If your Easypaisa account has suddenly stopped working, you’re not alone. There are several common reasons why users face deactivation, and understanding them can help you prevent future issues or choose the right method for recovery.
- Extended Inactivity
Easypaisa may temporarily deactivate accounts that haven’t been used for a long period. This is part of their policy to maintain platform security and prevent dormant accounts from being exploited. - Verification Problems (CNIC Issues)
If your CNIC hasn’t been properly verified or there’s a mismatch between your CNIC and registered mobile number, Easypaisa can suspend or restrict your account until the details are corrected. - Incorrect Login Attempts or Forgotten PIN
Multiple incorrect PIN entries or forgotten login credentials can trigger automatic security blocks. This prevents unauthorized access but may also lock out legitimate users temporarily. - Suspicious or Unusual Activity
If Easypaisa detects irregular activity such as multiple failed transactions, transfers to unknown numbers, or attempts from flagged devices, your account may be blocked for safety reasons. - Policy Updates or System Compliance
Occasionally, Easypaisa introduces new policy or KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements. Failure to update your details or agree to new terms can result in account restrictions or deactivation.
Method 1: Reactivating Easypaisa via Mobile App
Use the Easypaisa App to Regain Access
The easiest and most direct way to reactivate your Easypaisa account is through the official Easypaisa mobile app. This method is ideal if you still have access to your registered mobile number and want to handle the process without visiting a franchise.
Here’s how to do it:
- Open the Easypaisa App
Launch the Easypaisa app on your cell phone. Make sure you’re using the latest version to avoid compatibility issues. - Log in with Your Registered Number
Enter the mobile number linked to your Easypaisa account. If you’ve forgotten your PIN, look for the “Forgot PIN” or “Need Help?” option. - Go to Settings or Help Centre
Once logged in (or while attempting to log in), tap on the settings menu or access the help centre for account-related support options. - Follow the Reactivation or Recovery Process
Select “Account Reactivation” or “Account Recovery”—this may vary slightly based on app updates. Follow the guided steps. - Enter Your Verification Details
You’ll be asked to confirm your identity by entering your CNIC number, receiving a One-Time Password (OTP) on your phone, or answering a few security questions. - Submit and Wait for Confirmation
After entering the correct details, the app will process your reactivation request. You should see a success message or receive a confirmation SMS shortly after.
Method 2: Reactivate by Calling Easypaisa Helpline
Get Direct Support through 3737
If you can’t access the Easypaisa app or prefer speaking directly to a support agent, calling the Easypaisa helpline is a reliable way to reactivate your account. This method is particularly helpful for users facing verification errors or account blocks due to suspicious activity.
Follow these steps to get assistance:
- Dial the Easypaisa Helpline
- From a Telenor SIM: Dial 3737.
- From any other network: Call 042-111-003-737.
- Select Your Preferred Language
Once connected, choose your language (usually Urdu or English) by following the automated prompts. - Speak with a Customer Support Representative
When prompted, select the option to talk to a live agent. Clearly explain that your Easypaisa account is deactivated and you want to reactivate it. - Provide Required Verification Details
The support agent will ask for your registered mobile number, CNIC number, and sometimes additional information like your date of birth or recent transaction history for security verification. - Request Manual Reactivation
After verifying your identity, request the agent to reactivate your account. They may inform you of any additional requirements, such as visiting a nearby franchise in case of KYC compliance issues. - Note Down the Reference Number
At the end of the call, the agent may provide a reference or ticket number for your reactivation request. Keep this number safe in case you need to follow up.
Method 3: Visit a Telenor Franchise or Easypaisa Shop
Physical Reactivation for Identity Verification
If you’re unable to reactivate your Easypaisa account through the app or helpline—or if your account requires in-person verification—the most reliable solution is to visit a nearby Telenor franchise or authorized Easypaisa service center.
Here’s what to do:
- Go to a Nearby Telenor Franchise or Easypaisa Shop
Locate your nearest service point using Google Maps or the Telenor store locator. Most urban and semi-urban areas have multiple locations available. - Bring Required Documents
Carry your original CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) and the mobile phone registered with your Easypaisa account. These will be used to verify your identity on the spot. - Request Reactivation from the Staff
Let the representative know that your Easypaisa account is deactivated and you need assistance reactivating it. They will initiate the process in their system. - Identity Verification Process
The staff will verify your CNIC details, match them against your Easypaisa profile, and, depending on the case, may ask for additional biometric verification. - Account Reactivation and Confirmation
Once verified, your account will be reactivated immediately. You will typically receive an SMS confirmation on your registered number notifying you that your wallet is now active.
How Long Does Reactivation Take & How to Confirm It
Know When Your Account is Active Again
Once you’ve submitted your reactivation request—whether through the app, helpline, or in person—knowing how long it takes and how to confirm success is important. Here’s what you can expect based on the method you choose:
- App-Based Reactivation
If you’re using the Easypaisa mobile app, the reactivation is typically instant or completed within 15 to 30 minutes, provided your information is correct and verification is successful. - Helpline or Manual Activation
Reactivation through customer support usually takes 24 to 48 hours. After verification, your request is logged, and you’ll be notified once the account is restored. - Franchise-Based Reactivation
Visiting a Telenor franchise or Easypaisa shop often results in immediate reactivation, especially when identity documents are verified on the spot.
How to Confirm Reactivation:
- You’ll receive a confirmation SMS on your registered mobile number stating your account is now active.
- You can also log into the Easypaisa app to check if you can access your wallet and perform transactions.
- Some users may receive an in-app notification or see updated wallet activity immediately after reactivation.
After completing the process, make sure to check your message inbox or app dashboard. If you don’t receive a confirmation within the expected time, consider contacting Easypaisa support again for an update.
FAQs
Can I reactivate my Easypaisa account if my number is changed?
No, Easypaisa accounts are linked to your original mobile number. If your number is no longer active or has been changed, you cannot reactivate the same account. You will need to register a new account with your new number. For balance transfers or help with deactivation, contact Easypaisa support.
What if I forgot my Easypaisa PIN during reactivation?
If you've forgotten your PIN, you can reset it using the Easypaisa app. Tap on “Forgot PIN” and follow the on-screen instructions. You’ll need to verify your CNIC and enter a one-time password (OTP) sent to your number to create a new PIN.
Will I lose my wallet balance after reactivation?
No, your Easypaisa balance remains safe even if your account is temporarily deactivated. Once your account is successfully reactivated, all your funds and transaction history will be restored.
Is there any fee for reactivating the account?
There is no fee for reactivating your Easypaisa account. Whether you choose to reactivate via the app, helpline, or in person at a franchise, the process is free of charge. However, calling from a non-Telenor number may incur standard call rates.
What if I don’t receive the confirmation SMS?
If you haven’t received a confirmation SMS after reactivation, try logging into your Easypaisa app to check your account status. If you’re still unable to access your wallet, reach out to Easypaisa support or revisit the nearest franchise with your CNIC for further assistance.
