Nomo, the world’s first fully digital Sharia-compliant cross-border bank, has teamed up with leading global issuer-processor Paymentology to build a cutting-edge and seamless customer payment experience.

Nomo offers Middle East customers a wide range of global banking services, including current accounts, property finance, international transfers, and more through its iOS and Android apps. The service also allows users to track spending, make fast payments, and manage their finances more effectively.

Nomo has already benefited from Paymentology’s cloud-based technology by introducing multi-currency accounts offering six currencies – GBP, USD, EUR, KWD, AED, and SAR. The service helps customers avoid exchange fees and provides fast, safe cross-border payments.

Now, as part of the official Nomo / Paymentology partnership, the digital bank will benefit from faster processing times, best-in-class fraud protection, and Mastercard virtual cards. Meanwhile, Paymentology will deliver a real-time data feed, providing granular insights to help Nomo improve its platform.

Martin Heraghty, Regional Director Europe of Paymentology, spoke positively about the collaboration: “As the demand for Sharia-compliant digital products and services continues to grow, Nomo is at the forefront of delivering solutions that cater to the needs of Islamic customers and beyond. With our innovative payment technology, Nomo is paving the way toward a seamless, customer-centric digital banking future. We look forward to launching more ground-breaking services together”.

uae prepares to launch two satellites thuraya-2 and mbz-sat

HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, chaired the first meeting of the Supreme Space Council in Dubai on December 16, 2024. The session highlighted the UAE’s ambitious space plans and took stock of the sector’s economic progress.

The council emphasized the growing role of private companies in advancing space technologies, noting that their contributions are now equal to that of the public sector. Members also praised initiatives like the Space Economic Zones Programme, which are designed to fuel innovation and investment in the space industry.

Discussing the UAE’s space journey, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum remarked, “The national space sector continues to grow and advance, and we take immense pride in the remarkable achievements we have accomplished over the years”.

Sheikh Hamdan also received updates on two upcoming satellite projects: Thuraya-2 and MBZ-SAT. Thuraya-2, developed by Space42, is slated for launch this December. Meanwhile, the MBZ-SAT, created by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), will soon follow. MBRSC, a major driver of the UAE National Space Programme, continues to lead the nation’s space-related developments.

Space42 took the opportunity to showcase its advancements, including ongoing collaborations between public and private entities. The company also outlined strategies to promote innovation, boost revenue streams, and create new opportunities for growth in the sector.

This mission, which is now in its second phase as of June 2024, has been collecting critical data to develop a comprehensive diurnal image of Mars.

The UAE also ventured into lunar exploration with an unmanned mission aimed at studying untouched regions of the Moon’s surface. While the probe ultimately crashed during its landing attempt after communication was lost seconds before touchdown, the effort represented a significant step in the country’s exploration ambitions.
