When digital adoption reaches new heights, there's an equally important story happening behind the scenes.
In Saudi Arabia, electronic payments accounted for 85% of retail transactions in 2025, compared with 79% in 2024, according to the Saudi Central Bank.
This remarkable progress reflects more than changing consumer habits. It represents years of technological development, infrastructure investment, innovation, security enhancements, rigorous testing and collaboration across the financial technology ecosystem.
From local banking systems to regional networks and global technology providers, an enormous amount of expertise and continuous improvement supports the digital experiences millions of people increasingly rely on every day.
And that is something worth recognising. As our digital world advances, so do the technologies, capabilities and expertise that make this progress possible.
At ITS, we're proud to contribute to this evolving ecosystem through our banking technology solutions, consultancy and digital transformation expertise.
