Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: PayTabs Group, the leading award-winning payment orchestration powerhouse, announced the full acquisition of TAPn’GO technology, one of the UAE’s leading contactless payment capabilities, to enhance checkout experiences for businesses across MENA.

Through this acquisition, TAPn’GO will become part of PayTabs Super App, enabling faster, real-time, contactless checkouts for businesses across various industries, including retail, hospitality, healthcare, entertainment, and regulated donation platforms, the group revealed in a press release today.

This integration will simplify how businesses accept payments with seamless checkout, a convenient experience, and affordable payment solutions across in-store and digital environments. It also facilitates secure payment acceptance across cards, wallets, and split payment methods.

It supports the growth of the wider regional economies while advancing financial inclusion and turning everyday transactions into smarter, more connected experiences that drive real impact, growth, and business volume.”

The acquisition strengthens PayTabs Super App by embedding smartphone-based payments into a unified merchant experience, helping businesses accelerate digital adoption, enhance customer interactions, and unlock new revenue opportunities.

For his part, Cyrille Picard, Founder of TAPn’GO, said: “We anticipate that this will be a game-changer for the region. With this versatile and dynamic move, TAPn’GO as a PayTabs Group’s proprietary technology, will contribute significantly to the region's ongoing digital disruption, a win-win for all stakeholders involved.”

TAPn’GO helps businesses simplify checkout, reduce wait times, and enhance customer satisfaction through intuitive features such as bill splitting, tipping, and paperless receipts. By streamlining payment flows and digitizing customer interactions, it enables faster service, improved staff efficiency, and stronger customer experiences across in-store, on-site, and digital environments.
