Shukria  ·  Open Finance

Open Finance.
Without the heavy lifting.

The UAE’s Open Finance mandate changes what every bank must share — and what every fintech can build. Shukria is the platform on both sides of that exchange.

One Framework, Two Doors

Open Finance has two sides.
Shukria runs both.

The CBUAE mandate isn’t one product — it’s an exchange between two participants. Whichever side you’re building from, Shukria is the layer underneath.

CBUAE Open Finance Framework — national deadline
Shukria Pay by Bank

Card costs scale. Ours caps.

Payments move straight from the customer’s bank account — no interchange, no card scheme fees. Because the fee is capped per transaction, the saving grows with the ticket.

Capped

Our per-transaction fee stops climbing, however large the payment gets.

Zero

Our per-transaction fee stops climbing, however large the payment gets.

No app

Merchant Lending

Credit built on consented data

From Day 1 registration to a Day 90 pre-approved credit pot — no paperwork, no manual approvals.

Consumer Lending

Personalised, without the paperwork

Consented banking data turns into pre-approved, personalised loan offers automatically.
