DigiDoe launched operations in Doha this week and is targeting banks in the Middle East as part of its plan to revolutionise the world’s out-dated payments infrastructure.

Tony Hajjar, recently appointed as DigiDoe’s Head of Operations, Qatar, said: “DigiDoe has created a pioneering, next generation, all-in-one unique solution, and can now offer its fully-integrated, innovative, proprietary technology to forward-thinking banks here in the Middle East.
