Traditional banks were once the dominant force in merchant payments, but technology, fintech innovation, and evolving customer expectations have disrupted the status quo. Payments are no longer a banking monopoly—they are now a high-growth fintech opportunity that is reshaping the financial ecosystem in MENA​.

 

With rising interest rates, increasing business demands, and the need to reduce transaction costs, controlling payments is more than just a service—it's a strategic advantage that drives cash flow and enables diversification​.

 

To thrive in this rapidly changing environment, banks need to rethink their strategies — not only to attract new customers but to retain existing ones —while competing with digital-first Payment Service Providers (PSPs) and fintech disruptors​.

 

In this e-book, we explore:

  • The Key Challenges Facing Banks – How legacy systems, fragmented integrations, and regulatory shifts are reshaping merchant payments​.
  • The Biggest Opportunities & Threats – The rise of embedded finance, open banking, and real-time payments in MENA​.
  • How to Navigate Complexity & Scale – A strategic roadmap for modernizing payment infrastructure and integrating future-ready technologies​.
