Rapidly becoming a recognised player within Dubai’s trading sector, Dubai Trade remains adamant about their goal: “To ensure smooth trade flow covering the entire supply- chain system without any time-consuming interruptions,” says Mahmood Al Bastaki, Director of Dubai Trade.

By offering end-to-end online services to Dubai World’s companies, such as DP World, Economic Zones World, Dubai Multi Commodities Centre and Dubai Customs, Dubai Trade is coalescing the 50,000 companies that interact with Dubai’s ports, customs and free zones into a single community.

Recently signing agreements with Emirates Bank International and Commercial Bank of Dubai (CBD), Dubai Trade is expecting their Centralised E-Payment Gateway (CePG) to ease the transaction process as well. Customers can now deal with companies through their bank accounts, via Dubai Trade, streamlining the real-time transfer of funds.

“Dubai Trade’s e-payment gateway is a brilliant concept bringing customers and companies closer. I am confident that the e-payment gateway service will be beneficial for both sides as it will make transactions easy and qualitatively more efficient,” says Mohammed Al Muallem, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of DP World’s UAE Region.

By avoiding the need to be physically present at the counters, these services will considerably save time and effort for the customers and the companies. After all, who likes waiting in queues for two hours, simply for two minutes worth of payment and paperwork? With Dubai Trade, services will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week from the comfort of your office, home or anywhere else around the world.

“We are keen to establish a comprehensive customer-friendly electronic platform that offers direct and easy transaction facilities,” says Al Bastaki. “We see this as a vital element in strengthening Dubai’s aim to be the most efficient trading hub in the world.”
