· THE UAE APPROVAL REALITY ·
How we handle it
Getting a payment gateway live in the UAE is not the 10-minute Stripe signup you read about online. Trade licence, moderation licence, bank statements, IBAN letters, URL policies, refund policies, KYC on every director. Each gateway wants slightly different documents in slightly different formats. Miss one line and the file goes to the back of the queue for another 2 weeks.
We have run this process for salons, cafes, ecommerce brands, clinics, and interior design studios across Dubai. We know what each gateway asks for, in what order, and how to prevent the 3 most common rejections. Then we do the technical integration on your site and don't leave until you have a real, successful test transaction.

· HOW WE WORK ·
From discovery call to live transaction in four steps.
Discovery call
We understand your business, cart size, customer base, existing platform, and which gateways you already hold.
Gateway recommendation
We recommend which 1 or 2 gateways to apply for, and why. Most retail sites we set up run a card processor plus one BNPL option in parallel.
Document prep
We send you a checklist of exactly which documents each gateway needs and in what format. You send them, we review before submission.
Submission & integration
We submit to the gateway, handle every back-and-forth with underwriting, then integrate on your platform once approved. Sandbox, then real card test.
