Dukhan Bank has signed an exploratory Memorandum of Understanding MoU with PayLater, a Qatar-based financial technology company offering deferred payment solutions, on the sidelines of Web Summit Qatar 2026.
The counterparty operates as a deferred payment service provider. Any potential collaboration remains subject to regulatory approvals, Dukhan Bank's internal policies, and applicable governance requirements.
The MoU establishes a formal, non-commercial framework through which both parties will assess potential areas of collaboration related to deferred payment solutions. The exploratory discussions will focus on understanding how such solutions could, subject to regulatory approvals and internal governance processes, complement Dukhan Bank's Shari'a-compliant offerings, enhance digital engagement, and support the evolving needs of individuals and small businesses. No commercial arrangements have been agreed at this stage, and any future engagement would be subject to further evaluation and the execution of separate written agreements.
