UAE-based online payment gateway Telr has entered into a strategic partnership with Kema, a fellow UAE fintech platform providing a SaaS solution for B2B SME cash flow automation. This collaboration aims to integrate Telr’s robust payment services directly into Kema’s platform, offering merchants a streamlined solution for managing payments and cash flow processes across the region.
Integrating Payments and Cash Flow Automation
The partnership allows businesses using Kema’s platform to leverage Telr’s extensive payment infrastructure seamlessly. Kema’s users can generate invoices, embed secure payment links, automate reminders, and monitor their cash flow in real-time, all within a single interface. By turning static invoices into dynamic, consumer-grade checkouts, the collaboration is designed to significantly improve payment efficiency for B2B transactions.
Expanding Capabilities for Regional SMEs
Through this integration, Kema’s merchants gain immediate access to Telr’s comprehensive suite of local and international payment options. This includes the ability to process transactions in over 120 currencies and across 30 languages, enabling SMEs to scale their digital commerce operations. Furthermore, businesses benefit from the enhanced security and regulatory compliance provided by Telr’s Retail Payment Services License (RPS) from the Central Bank of the UAE. According to Kema, this integrated approach can lead to a 60% improvement in on-time payments while saving finance teams hundreds of hours.
A Vision for Seamless Digital Commerce
Leaders from both companies highlighted the strategic value of the partnership in empowering regional businesses. Khalil Alami, Founder and CEO of Telr, stated, “By combining our payment expertise with Kema’s intelligent finance tools, we’re empowering merchants to scale their digital commerce seamlessly and securely while streamlining cash flow.”
Michael Ghandour, Founder and CEO of Kema, added, “By turning every static invoice into a consumer-grade checkout, Kema offers secure payment links and a dedicated B2B invoice flow pre-built with Telr… Kema enables businesses to set up in minutes and access a complete receivables platform covering automation, reminders, payments, invoice financing, and more.”
