This invitation-only Meet-up will bring together a carefully curated group of merchants and industry experts for a day of education, collaboration, and insight-sharing focused on regional and global payments innovation.

Attendance for merchants is complimentary, reflecting MAG’s mission to support the merchant community through education and advocacy rather than commercial promotion.

The Meet-up will explore key themes including:

  • Managing payments across multiple regions and corridors
  • Using payments as a lever for growth and customer experience
  • Risk, fraud, and resilience in high-growth markets
  • The evolving regulatory and innovation landscape in the Middle East

We would be delighted to welcome you to this inaugural UAE gathering and look forward to your participation in shaping meaningful conversations for the merchant community.
