Adyen, the Dutch fintech unicorn, has announced that it will be expanding its operation to the Middle East. The Amsterdam-based company opened a regional office in Dubai to closely manage its business in the region. 

Sander Maertens, Head of Middle East for Adyen, says “For us, it’s important to be able to offer local expertise to our merchants — that’s why opening a local office is essential.”

Partners with local payment providers

With Dutch company’s presence in the Middle East, its existing merchants from other markets can enter the new region easily. “Investing in our global reach to support our merchants is something we’re constantly working on — and this is a very interesting region for them,” said Pieter van der Does, co-founder and CEO of Adyen. “There’s happening a lot in the Middle Eastern markets, and we’re excited to be a part of it.”

Further, the fintech firm has partnered with various major local payment providers like Fawry, Mada, Meeza, KNET, NAPS, BENEFIT, and OmanNet.

Rolled out ‘Giving’ feature for charities

Last month, Adyen rolled out Giving – a product feature that enables it’s merchants to accept charitable donations during the online and in-store checkout process. The fintech company partnered with a host of brands to launch Giving, including Gap Inc., Delivery Hero, and Crocs.
