Ziina has obtained a Retail Payment Services Category III license from CBUAE and approval to provide overseas remittances through its app and other digital channels. The license covers domestic fund transfers, merchant acquiring, payment aggregation, and merchant payment acceptance tools such as payment links, QR payments, Tap to Pay, and online payment gateways.
