The UAE Payment Gateway System (UAEPGS)
The Central Bank of the UAE introduced the UAEPGS in 2016 to allow customers of merchants connected to the service to pay their bills online, either by direct debit (through their bank account via internet banking) or via a UAEPGS member bank debit card. In the case of direct debit, the gateway redirects the customer to their bank’s website, where the customer authenticates by using the internet banking login.
The system’s efficiency and governance are ensured by compliance with domestic and international standards, and the CBUAE’s Rules document.
