How Dinero Pay Strengthened Its Payment Infrastructure for Saudi Arabia’s Growing Digital Economy

Saudi Arabia’s payments market is evolving quickly as merchants and consumers shift toward mobile wallets, alternative payment methods, and faster digital checkout experiences. For payment service providers, this creates both an opportunity and a technical challenge: they need to launch modern payment capabilities quickly while meeting strict local infrastructure and compliance requirements.

Dinero Pay, a payment service provider based in Saudi Arabia, faced this challenge while building a competitive payment offering for merchants in the Kingdom. The company wanted to support the payment methods Saudi customers increasingly expect, including Apple Pay, Google Pay, and local Buy Now, Pay Later options such as Tabby and Tamara.

To move faster without building every component from scratch, Dinero Pay worked with Akurateco to deploy a white-label payment infrastructure adapted to the needs of the Saudi market.

Building for a regulated payments market

Launching payment services in Saudi Arabia requires more than adding new checkout options. PSPs need infrastructure that can support secure payment processing, local data requirements, bank integrations, and the operational needs of merchants across different industries.

For Dinero Pay, speed was also important. Developing a complete payment platform internally would have required significant time, resources, and specialized engineering capacity. The company needed a solution that could shorten time to market while still giving it the flexibility to manage and scale its payment services.

Akurateco provided Dinero Pay with a white-label payment platform that could be deployed in a dedicated environment and configured for the company’s operational and compliance needs.

Deploying dedicated infrastructure on Oracle Cloud

To support local hosting and data sovereignty requirements, Dinero Pay chose an on-premises deployment model hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. This approach allowed the company to use a dedicated environment while avoiding the complexity of building a payment system from the ground up.

Akurateco adapted its payment software for Dinero Pay’s infrastructure, supported the technical setup, and helped prepare the environment for daily payment operations. The project also included configuration for local regulatory requirements, data storage, and security standards.

This gave Dinero Pay a stronger foundation for operating in Saudi Arabia’s regulated payments ecosystem while maintaining the flexibility needed to introduce new payment methods and services.

Adding mobile wallets and BNPL options

A major part of the project was enabling the payment methods that are becoming central to digital commerce in Saudi Arabia.

Through Akurateco’s platform, Dinero Pay gained access to Apple Pay and Google Pay, allowing its merchants to offer smoother mobile checkout experiences. These wallets use tokenized payment flows, which replace sensitive card data with secure tokens and help improve the safety and convenience of online payments.

The project also included integration with Buy Now, Pay Later providers Tabby and Tamara. For merchants, this means more flexibility at checkout. For Dinero Pay, it expands the value of its payment offering in a market where alternative payment methods are becoming increasingly important.

Preparing the team for independent operations

Technology deployment was only part of the process. Akurateco also provided hands-on support and training to help Dinero Pay’s team manage the system independently.

This included operational guidance, system configuration support, and knowledge transfer around the platform’s payment features. As a result, Dinero Pay could not only launch new capabilities but also build the internal confidence to operate and expand them over time.

What Dinero Pay achieved

The collaboration helped Dinero Pay reduce the time and cost required to bring advanced payment functionality to the Saudi market. Instead of developing a full payment platform internally, the company received a ready infrastructure layer that could be tailored to its business model.

Dinero Pay’s merchants can now offer popular mobile wallets and BNPL options, while the company benefits from a platform designed for secure processing, scalability, and future payment method expansion.

For Akurateco, the project highlights the role of white-label payment infrastructure in regulated markets. PSPs in Saudi Arabia and across the wider MENA region need to move quickly, but they also need systems that can support local requirements, modern payment technologies, and long-term growth.

Dinero Pay’s case shows how a PSP can launch advanced payment capabilities without starting from scratch — and still build a payment infrastructure suited to the specific needs of its market.
