Alinma Bank

Alinma Bank is a Saudi bank that provides merchant acquiring through two separate services: an E-Payment Gateway for online sales and a POS service for in-store payments.

Services The gateway is designed for internet merchants who need to accept payments on their website, while the POS offer covers physical terminals for shops and outlets. The bank presents both under its merchant acquiring activity, so a business selling online and offline can in principle take both services from the same provider.

Contact Alinma Bank publishes direct contacts for its POS team, which makes it possible to ask about terminal types, installation and onboarding without going through a general branch enquiry.

What to clarify The material does not state numeric tariffs, supported card schemes or settlement service levels. A merchant should therefore ask for the commission schedule, the payout timing and any terminal rental or gateway set-up fees before comparing the bank with other Saudi acquirers. It is also worth confirming whether a business account with the bank is required to receive settlements.
