Welcome to the PayTabs LinkedIn platform.
PayTabs is a payments infrastructure company providing exceptional solutions that are simple, secure, and scalable to drive local commerce and power financial inclusion across the region. The company was founded by Saudi entrepreneur Abdulaziz Al Jouf.
Having processed the first live payment gateway transaction in 2014, today PayTabs processes transactions in multiple currencies and markets, swiftly and securely. By providing the infrastructure for B2B payment solutions, including digital invoicing for businesses, QR code, social media payments, point of sale and switching platforms, PayTabs facilitates seamless e-commerce and social commerce solutions for merchants, super merchants and governments.
For over a decade, PayTabs has custom built and exported a full stack of game changing solutions. These include mobile applications, hospitality, governmental, education, airline, travel, transport, and biller solutions, to interlink the multi-billion-dollar enterprise market chain in the region.
In 2021, PayTabs launched PT Touch, the first soft POS solution in the MENA market to transform smart phones into merchant point of sale (POS) terminals. In 2022, PayTabs made a leapfrog move to pioneer next generation payments, by launching its home owned, globally validated unified payments and orchestration platform. PayTabs unified payment processing orchestration enables governments and large-scale originations to become independent payment platforms to serve their industries.
In 2022, the company acquired Türkiye’s social commerce platform Paymes to complement its existing retail portfolio. In early 2023, PayTabs received payment gateway certification from Saudi Payments. By end of 2023, PayTabs was awarded MENA’s Best Merchant Solution and the glowing recognition of Fintech Company of the year.
PayTabs has dedicated offices across the MENA region. The company is an equal opportunities employer.

Training for real-world operations is limited by cost, logistics, and safety constraints, preventing institutions from training as frequently or effectively as needed. The Oasis addresses this by enabling immersive, repeatable, and scalable training environments for critical industries and workforce development. Our four-sense VR platform (sight, sound, touch, and scent) can reduce traditional training costs by up to 65% and training time by up to 4x, redefining a $50B training market across the GCC.

DBU Group is an exclusive consultancy working with boards, founders, and visionary leaders across the GCC.
Built on clarity, conviction, and long-term relationships, our role begins when the path forward isn’t obvious when vision must be sharpened, direction recalibrated, and decisions made that carry weight beyond a quarter.
We work with those who think generationally and move deliberately. Those who challenge convention, shape markets, and lead with intent.
Our focus: strategy, innovation, institutional relevance, and legacy design delivered with discretion and depth.
