Checkout.com has entered into a strategic partnership with Nahdi Medical Company, Saudi Arabia’s largest retail pharmacy chain and integrated Omnihealth platform, to strengthen digital payment performance and improve online checkout experiences for customers across Saudi Arabia and the GCC.
Under the partnership, Checkout.com will integrate its payment acquiring and processing technology into Nahdi’s digital platforms, aiming to increase payment success rates, enhance transaction security, and support the retailer’s expanding eCommerce operations.
The collaboration is designed to deliver a faster, more reliable, and seamless digital payment experience for customers purchasing health, wellness, beauty, and other products through Nahdi’s online channels. Leveraging Checkout.com’s local market expertise and payment infrastructure, the partnership will help maximize payment acceptance rates and ensure platform stability during peak sales periods.
The integration also includes support for local payment methods and conversion tools such as Flow and Remember Me, helping reduce payment friction and address cart abandonment challenges. The companies commented that the initiative supports growing demand for digital transactions and represents a milestone in the ongoing digital transformation of the region’s health and wellness sector.
