Why Qatari merchants choose Shopify + SADAD

Here are three common headaches that can turn into manageable issues instead of persistent problems.

One less system to also check

Refund a customer in Shopify and it happens in SADAD too. Orders and refunds stay in sync.

Nothing to build & maintain

No integration code to own and no developer on call. Updates arrive through the app.

Payments that fix themselves

If a customer is charged but the order isn't created SADAD reverses the charge in 30 minutes.

SADAD payment gateway,
end to end

The same infrastructure that powers POS terminals, payment links and online checkout across Qatar, now available inside your Shopify checkout.

QCB-licensed acquirer

SADAD is licensed by the Qatar Central Bank as a full fintech acquirer, so your payments stay inside Qatar's regulated rails.

Sandbox before live

Run the full payment flow against the Sandbox environment, confirm the order lifecycle, then switch the same credentials to Live.

Reporting you can reconcile

Settlements, payouts and refunds exported in a format your accountant can match against Shopify orders without rekeying.

Arabic and English checkout

Customers pay in the language they read, which cuts hesitation at the last step and reduces support messages after it.

PCI DSS compliant processing

All card data is handled on SADAD's certified infrastructure, so card numbers never touch your Shopify theme or your servers.

24/7 support from Doha

A local team in Qatar time, that knows both the gateway and the Shopify side of the flow.

Onboarding handled locally

Merchant account and documentation are processed in Doha by a team that works with Qatar trade licenses every day.

Checkout carrying your branding

Customise the payment page with your own logo and colours so customers stay in your store's world through to the last click.
