The market

What building for Qatar really means

Qatar is small and extremely connected. Almost everyone is online, people carry around one and a half mobile connections each, and mobile internet runs at speeds few countries match. In a market that compact, word of mouth travels fast, and so does a bad app review.

Spending power is high and expectations follow. Customers here compare local businesses with the best international apps, so a clunky booking flow or a slow store stands out quickly.

Payments have a local flavour. Many shoppers pay with locally issued debit cards that run on the NAPS network, and online that often means QPay. A checkout that only takes international cards can turn away a large share of local buyers.

Payments and rules

Built for how Qatar pays, and what the law expects

General information, not legal advice. Your lawyer has the final word on compliance.

Payments customers expect

  • NAPS debit cards and QPay

    Qatar's local debit network, used by many shoppers online through QPay, connected through gateways that support it.

  • International cards and Apple Pay

    Visa, Mastercard and wallets for residents and visitors.

  • Buy now, pay later

    Instalment options where your gateway and products qualify.

  • Cash on delivery

    Still expected by some shoppers for a first order.

Rules we build around

  • Qatar's personal data law

    Law No. 13 of 2016 sets rules for collecting and using personal data, including consent and security. We build privacy notices, consent and data handling around it.

  • Arabic and right-to-left

    Arabic pages designed for right to left from the first wireframe, with mixed Arabic and English text handled cleanly.

  • Clear prices in QAR

    Prices, delivery fees and return terms shown before payment, which builds trust and reduces abandoned carts.
