Keep Up with ONFTECH – First Edition of 2026
The first edition of 2026 — expanding our presence, strengthening partnerships, and supporting readiness across the ecosystem.
A Strong Start to 2026
The first months of 2026 have marked a strong start for ONFTECH across Saudi Arabia. One of the key milestones in this period has been the expansion of our presence in Riyadh through our new office, reflecting our continued commitment to serving the market more closely and supporting the Kingdom’s digital transformation journey with stronger local engagement.
This momentum has also been shaped by meaningful relationship-building across the ecosystem. During Ramadan, we hosted our annual ONFTECH Iftar gathering in Riyadh, bringing together valued clients, partners, and friends from across the financial sector for meaningful conversations, renewed connections, and a shared spirit of community.
Together, these milestones reflect more than activity alone. They show ONFTECH’s continued investment in local presence, long-term relationships, and practical support for institutions navigating growth, readiness, and transformation in the Saudi market.
Strategic Collaboration Spotlight: ONFTECH × Trade Bank of Iraq – Saudi Arabia
We are proud to highlight our collaboration with Trade Bank of Iraq – Saudi Arabia as the bank expands its presence in the Kingdom. Through this partnership, ONFTECH is supporting a fast, secure, and fully compliant operational setup aligned with local regulatory requirements.
As noted in ONFTECH’s announcement, this collaboration is centered around operational readiness, compliance alignment, and smooth market entry. It reflects the role ONFTECH aims to play in the region: helping institutions move into new market environments with confidence, supported by local expertise and structured execution.
TWG Wallet Readiness Update
TWG readiness is no longer theoretical. It is moving forward across Saudi Arabia’s wallet market. ONFTECH recently shared that 5 ONFTECH-supported wallet clients have reached the ready-to-test stage, marking an important milestone in both execution and regulatory readiness.
This progress reflects the growing importance of structured readiness, local execution, and the right implementation partner in an evolving market. At ONFTECH, our focus remains on readiness-driven delivery backed by hands-on expertise and local presence.
Market & Regulatory Insight: Open Banking Readiness in Saudi Arabia
Open Banking readiness in Saudi Arabia is increasingly moving from long-term planning into active execution. ONFTECH’s recent market message positions Open Banking as a live regulatory priority for institutions planning to align with the SAMA Open Banking Framework and move toward PASP readiness.
For financial institutions, this means readiness is no longer only about vision. It is about choosing the right path to implementation, reducing complexity, and moving forward with a more structured and compliant approach.
Solution Spotlight: OBridge
In this environment, OBridge represents ONFTECH’s platform-led approach to supporting institutions with compliance, integration, and certification readiness. ONFTECH positions OBridge as a way for financial institutions to move forward with greater speed, structure, and confidence while shaping their own offering in line with market needs.
By connecting market requirements with practical implementation support, OBridge is designed to help institutions navigate Open Banking readiness in a more structured way.
ONFTECH Momentum Highlights: AML / CFT Momentum Growth
As ONFTECH continues to strengthen its position in Saudi Arabia, our recent momentum reflects not only business growth, but also stronger alignment with local governance and compliance priorities. Across AML / CFT-related readiness, operational support, and ecosystem engagement, our focus remains on helping institutions move forward with greater structure, regulatory awareness, and implementation confidence.
This direction reflects a broader commitment to supporting financial institutions with solutions and delivery models that are better aligned with local expectations, evolving compliance needs, and practical operational readiness.
