We’re pleased to welcome you as Student Brand Ambassador of National Financial Literacy
Program for Youth (NFLP-Y). NFLP-Y is doing really exciting work, and we are confident that
your inclusion in the team will prove to be valuable for us.
State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) in collaboration with the National Institute of Banking & Finance (NIBAF)
has launched the National Financial Literacy Program for Youth (NFLP-Y).
The basic aim of the program is to impart essential financial education to Pakistani youth and school going
children for a strengthening of their money management skills and understanding of financial matters. The
target of the project is to train 1.6 million children, adolescents, and youth through face-to-face classroom
training and its e-learning financial literacy game i.e. PomPak — Learn to Earn.
—
On 25th March, 2020, State bank of Pakistan launched ‘PomPak — Learn to Earn’, Pakistan’s first e-learn-
ing financial literacy game to impart free of cost financial education to Pakistani children, adolescents and
youth.
PomPak delivers its lessons in English and Urdu language through a story-based game format designed to
help understand and apply principles of financial literacy. Users follow the story of two entrepreneurial
families as they tackle personal, financial, and business decisions. As the player of this game, the aim is to
help the families create a successful business. In just a couple of hours, users can master the essentials of
saving, budgeting, borrowing, and banking, among many other topics.
When users complete all the modules in the game, they'll get a prestigious certificate of financial literacy,
jointly issued by the National Institute of Banking and Finance (NIBAF), a subsidiary of the SBP; and the
National Financial Literacy Program for Youth (NFLP-Y), a project of the State Bank of Pakistan. To know
more about PomPak, please visit: www.nflpy.pk/PomPak

To track your progress, an ‘Institute Code’ is generated against your name and is shared with you via email.
All the users, whom you bring to play PomPak, need to add your institute code in the ‘Institute’ field while
signing up.
Please Note: If the students don’t include your ‘Institute Code’ in the ‘Institute’ field while signing up,
then we won’t be able to track their progress and their number will not be added in your target. Therefore,
kindly communicate this point very clearly to the users.
A short tutorial video is created for you to show you how an account is created on PomPak and where the
institute code is added.
The link to the tutorial video is: https://youtu.be/zOu-5_VONYk
Ideally as a Student Brand Ambassador your target should be to encourage the users to complete the entire
game (PomPak — Learn To Earn) and earn their certificate of financial literacy, but at the very least they
should complete the first six modules of the game within their respective level/ age bracket to be considered
as Financially Literate.
If they don’t complete the first six modules of the game then their number will not be added in your target.
National Financial Literacy Program for Youth has developed a system for our Student Brand Ambassadors
through which you’ll be able to track all the progress against your institute code yourself.
Please follow the steps mentioned below to generate your institute code progress report:
On your Laptop/PC internet browser, go to this URL:
https://nflpy.knowledgeplatform.com//NibafAccount/ExportGameCompletionReport
Type in this password (Validate Code): pompak@sbp
After authentication, the system will open another page.
Provide your Institute Code and download the excel report.
For you as a Student Brand Ambassador, the most important column of the excel report is Column H ‘Total
FL Users’. The total sum of this column will give you the ‘Total Number of users that became financially
literate through PomPak using your Institute Code’.
National Financial Literacy Program for Youth (NFLP-Y)
Please Note: The report reflects data available on the system as of 12 AM the previous day. Sometimes
due to excessive load on the system when you try to generate your institute code progress report, the
downloaded excel report may show you the data of ‘ALL’ institute progress summary. Such instances are
rare, but if it happens you should wait for 10-15 minutes and then try to generate your institute code
progress report again.
A short tutorial video is also created for you to show you the step-by-step process of generating the institute
code progress report through the web portal of the State Bank of Pakistan's financial literacy game, PomPak –
Learn to Earn. You must watch the complete video to understand the excel progress report. The link to the
tutorial video is: https://youtu.be/SKgCRvoO5nE
Please note that this feature is developed for your convenience, now we expect that you will use it
with extreme care. We advise you to:
Don’t share the link or validate code with anyone.
Don’t generate multiple reports at once.
Only generate the institute code progress report once in a single day.
To keep a track of your progress, just generate the institute code progress report 2 or 3 times a week.
Any misuse of the system will result in the cancellation of your internship offer.
You’re required to submit a detailed progress report to us at [email protected] on monthly basis since
the date of initiation of your internship. Your internship is started from the day you recieve the first email
from us.
Your first report is due after 30 days, the second report after 60 days, the third report after 90 days and the
fourth report after 120 days. If you achieve the maximum target any time before the completion of 4
Months, your internship will be considered finished, and you will become eligible for the certificate and
stipend.

years can use your code to register on PomPak and become financially literate.
