Payten B.S.C. (c), one of the region’s leading alternative payment providers, recently formally announced the expansion of its operations in the Kingdom of Bahrain, building on the successful launch of the Pay10 Bahrain App for consumers and the Pay10 Biz Bahrain App for merchants in April this year.
Since entering the market, Pay10 has been focused on scaling its consumer and merchant ecosystem, driving adoption of secure, interoperable, and customer-centric payment solutions that simplify everyday transactions. As the company continues to expand its footprint, it remains committed to delivering innovative, cost-effective financial technology solutions that support Bahrain’s rapidly evolving digital economy.
Licensed by the Central Bank of Bahrain as an Ancillary Service Provider, Pay10 enters the Bahraini market with a strong foundation of regulatory compliance, security, and trust. Backed by a robust paymentโs infrastructure, the company is committed to delivering secure, reliable, and seamless digital payment experiences that meet the evolving needs of consumers and businesses while supporting the Kingdom’s vision for a digitally enabled economy.
The Pay10 Biz Bahrain App is a merchant-first solution designed for SMEs and businesses looking for a cost-effective and more efficient alternative to traditional payment systems. Available on both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, this enables merchants to accept digital payments securely, monitor transactions in real time, access funds seamlessly, and benefit from faster settlement cycles, all within a more competitive and transparent pricing model.
By addressing longstanding industry challenges such as high transaction costs and delayed settlements, Pay10 empowers businesses to improve cash flow, reduce operating costs, and accelerate growth through a modern digital payments platform.
Pay10 has also launched the Pay10 Bahrain App, its consumer-facing digital payments application, which is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Designed for citizens, residents, and digitally connected consumers across the Kingdom, the app delivers a secure, seamless, and intuitive payment experience that simplifies everyday financial transactions.
Through the Pay10 Bahrain App, users can instantly send and receive money, make local bank transfers, pay merchants by scanning QR codes, and manage their daily payments through a single, secure digital platform. By combining convenience, speed, and security, the app is designed to support the growing adoption of cashless payments and deliver a modern financial experience aligned with Bahrain’s digital economy.
A key differentiator of Pay10’s offering is its interoperability with BenefitPay, enabling merchants and consumers to continue using familiar local payment experiences without disruption. Consumers can simply scan dynamic QR codes using either the BenefitPay App or Pay10 App to make instant payments, while merchants can accept payments from a growing base of digital users without changing their existing processes or infrastructure. This seamless compatibility eliminates switching barriers, simplifies adoption, and strengthens Bahrain’s evolving digital payments ecosystem.
โThe launch of Pay10 in Bahrain represents another important milestone in our vision of building a truly interconnected payments ecosystem across the region,โ said Mr. Harry Gill, Founder & Chairman of Pay10. โBahrain has built a dynamic fintech ecosystem, underpinned by a robust regulatory framework and a commitment to digital innovation. We are proud to support this vision by delivering secure, interoperable, and customer- and merchant-centric payment solutions that simplify everyday commerce, empower businesses, and enhance the digital payment experience for consumers across the Kingdom.โ
Mr Gill added, โOur ambition extends beyond enabling payments. We are building a trusted financial infrastructure that powers digital commerce, accelerates financial inclusion, and helps businesses thrive in an increasingly connected economy. By combining regulatory excellence, cutting-edge technology, and deep local market integration, Pay10 is well-positioned to support Bahrain’s vision of a cashless, innovation-led future while creating lasting value for merchants, consumers, and the broader financial ecosystem.โ
