We are proud of what we have achieved so far as it resulted in this distinguished launch of WePay services, and we confirm that this is the beginning of an ambitious successful journey with innovative financial services that meet local, regional and global requirements&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>WePay&#8217;s superior platform is the result of combining the experience of Saudi&#8217;s EdfaPay and the advanced FinTech services of Tunisia&#8217;s WePay. The expansion aims to provide payments integrated solutions to keep up with global market demands, and to promote advanced technological payments in the region.<\/p>\n<p>EdfaPay has previously obtained licenses from global payment companies, such as Visa, MasterCard, and American Express, before receiving the local Tunisian authentication. The startup is ready to launch its service in May along with the announcements of many signed contracts with clients from Tunisia and Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>This step comes as a critical turning point for EdfaPay&#8217;s global expansion. FinTech products including checkout and SoftPOS, will be introduced and developed by WePay, in addition to WePay International, a cross-border payment service for residents abroad, providing customers with a seamless and secure payment experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ghormallah Al-Ghamdi, founder and CEO of EdfaPay<\/strong>, said, \u201cI am pleased and proud to announce the future of this regional expansion.
