Network International, a leading digital commerce enabler across the Middle East and Africa (MEA), has announced a strategic partnership with AlWasleh, a company specializing in buy now, pay later (BNPL) services. This collaboration aims to offer seamless installment payment options to customers while enhancing the digital payment landscape.
AlWasleh’s installment payment services allow customers to split purchases into convenient monthly payments. With this partnership, AlWasleh will leverage Network International’s advanced technology to facilitate smooth transactions at partner merchants, offering customers not only easy installment plans but also exclusive discounts.
In addition to closed-network transactions, this agreement marks a significant milestone for AlWasleh as it plans to launch co-branded Visa credit cards that will be accepted by merchants outside of its partner network. Network International will support the issuance and authorization processes, strengthening the collaboration.
Amjad Al Sadeq, Regional Managing Director – Processing, Levant for Network International, said, “This partnership with AlWasleh is an exciting development in revolutionizing BNPL services, making them more accessible to consumers and positioning Network International as a key player in the Kingdom’s evolving payment services market.”
Dr. Nabil Nasser, General Manager of AlWasleh, added, “Partnering with Network International is a significant milestone for AlWasleh. Their cutting-edge technology enables us to offer seamless BNPL solutions, enhancing our services and expanding our reach. This alliance will benefit our customers and drive business growth.”
This collaboration reflects Network International’s ongoing commitment to innovation and improving consumer experiences through cutting-edge digital payment solutions.
