Juspay, a payment infrastructure solutions firm for enterprises and banks, has expanded into the Middle East with the opening of its regional headquarters in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
According to Juspay, its payments orchestration platform provides a unified and reliable payments stack, helping organisations optimise authorisation rates and costs, simplify compliance and scale across Gulf Cooperation Council and global markets with reliability.
Additionally, the firm says DIFC provides a strong regulatory environment, robust infrastructure, and access to high quality talent.
Juspay plans to leverage this and work closely with regional banks, acquirers, networks, and ecosystem partners to deliver scalable and reliable payment solutions tailored for enterprises operating across global markets.
Sheetal Lalwani, co-founder and chief operating officer of Juspay, says: “Juspay has been building foundational payments infrastructure for large scale, mission critical commerce globally for over a decade.
“We are excited to bring these learnings to the Middle East and partner with merchants, banks, networks, and the broader ecosystem to build secure, scalable payments infrastructure that supports the region’s rapidly evolving digital economy.”
Salmaan Jaffery, chief business development officer at DIFC Authority, adds: “We are pleased to welcome Juspay to the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia’s most significant fintech and financial services ecosystem.
“As a global leader in payment infrastructure, Juspay’s presence strengthens our growing digital economy, reinforces DIFC’s role as a catalyst for financial innovation and cements Dubai’s position as a top four global FinTech hub.”
Nakul Kothari, head of Middle East and APAC, comments: “By establishing our presence in the Middle East with DIFC, we continue our mission of building innovative payment solutions rooted in deep local market understanding.
“The region holds tremendous potential, and we are investing in long-term partnerships with merchants and banks to help them build future-ready payment stacks that can scale across markets.”
