Kema, an innovative fintech headquartered in the UAE, has joined forces with Telr, a leading online payment gateway, to streamline and enhance cash flow management for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

The collaboration integrates Telr’s diverse payment methods with Kema’s SaaS solution, offering merchants a user-friendly platform that can be set up quickly. Under this partnership, Kema users will gain access to Telr’s extensive suite of local and international payment tools, supporting transactions in more than 120 currencies and across 30 languages.

Details of the Partnership

Telr holds a UAE Central Bank Retail Payment Services License (RPS), ensuring full regulatory compliance. Through this partnership, Kema merchants can leverage Telr’s capabilities to generate instant invoices, embed payment links, send reminders, and monitor cash flow in real-time.

Both companies aim to drive the adoption of card payments among businesses. According to Kema, it has facilitated over USD 2.5 million in B2B card transactions through Telr and plans to achieve a doubling of this figure within the next year. Kema’s platform simplifies the payment process by converting static invoices into consumer-grade checkouts, streamlining operations for finance teams.

UAE Market Environment

The UAE offers an ideal business landscape with supportive government initiatives and robust infrastructure, particularly in key cities such as Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Telr’s recent acquisition of a Payment Services License from the UAE Central Bank further solidifies its position in this market, allowing for expanded services and improved customer experiences.
