Network International (Network), a Dubai-based payments solutions provider has entered into a partnership with TerraPay, a global payments infrastructure company, to develop and deliver a first-of-its-kind payment solution on an interoperable platform in the UAE.

The partnership with Network, a leading enabler of digital commerce across the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region, will help TerraPay to expand its presence across the thriving Middle Eastern payments market.

As part of the association, the companies will allow a large addressable market from the African mobile wallet ecosystem, to transact across Network’s terminals in the UAE as well as at eCommerce platforms supported by them.

This association will enable TerraPay to leverage Network’s well-entrenched network of merchants and acquirer processing clients in the MEA region, to accept mobile wallets payments using TerraPay’s payment processing rails. This will benefit Network’s clients in the UAE, as well as TerraPay’s global partner networks across Asia, Europe, the US, Africa.
