Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and Mastercard have announced a collaboration to fuel the growth of the booming small and medium enterprise (SME) sector in Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE by digitalising SME payment flows. The partnership will empower SMEs to meet their growth potential through Mastercard’s technologies and resources.

Under the collaboration, Mastercard and ADGM will offer SME cards to qualified businesses. Mastercard and ADGM will work with its local banking partners to issue SME cards, which will offer a seamless and secure way to manage business expenses.

Beyond card offerings, small businesses can also participate in Mastercard’s SME business education programme. In addition, where applicable, Mastercard will support relevant businesses through Start Path, its award-winning global startup engagement programme that provides later-stage fintech startups with access to the company’s wide fintech portfolio and everything they need to grow quickly.
