SMEs are key players in the global landscape, especially in fast paced economic hubs like the Emirates. Because twice as many young Arabs in the GCC shop online now compared to five years ago, ecommerce is a lucrative and high potential sector for entrepreneurs wanting to launch their next big idea. In factthe Dubai Chamber of Commerce forecasts the UAE e-commerce market is expected to reach USD9.2 billion by the end of 2026 with electronic gadgets, fashion and food leading the way for the growth of the SME sector. However, trying to raise capital to scale up an e-business or working capital to run an ecommerce enterprise is still proving to be a long, intimidating, and tedious process.

Under this landscape, PayTabs facilitates digital payment processing and offers merchants multiple payment acceptance methods including debit cards, credit cards and wallets – while FlapKap enables SME e-commerce businesses in the UAE to leverage on financing solutions via the FlapKap app.  As part of the collaboration, more SME businesses will enable their e-stores to accept mobile, social, QR and online payments seamlessly and securely through the PayTabs payment gateway while availing working capital financing from FlapKap to meet their business inventory purchasing or logistic support requirements, for example.
