DUBAI, UAE – 10 July 2025:
Network International, a leading fintech company in the Middle East and Africa (MEA), and Magnati, a leading provider of payment solutions in the UAE, today announced that they have received key regulatory approvals to merge into a single entity, owned by a Brookfield-led consortium.
The merger process is expected to be completed during Q3, 2025.
The merged entity will serve over 250 financial institutions, 240,000 businesses and more than 20 million cardholders across more than 50 markets in MEA.
With a comprehensive suite of offerings including digital payments, data and insights, small business lending, and advanced fraud and security solutions, the merged organization is committed to enabling businesses.
It will continue to partner with governments to support the digitization of economies and enable financial inclusion in the region.
With a focus on innovation, scale, and growth, the combined business is well-placed to capitalize on the fast-growing digital payments adoption by both consumers and merchants in the region, including mobile payments, e-commerce and cross border transactions.
It will offer an expanded portfolio of products and services, tailored to meet the needs of customers, from SMEs to large enterprises and government agencies. Both companies will also realize sizable efficiencies and synergies, while expanding their operational reach across the MEA region.
“The combination of Network International and Magnati marks a pivotal moment in shaping the future of fintech in Middle East and Africa,” said Murat Cagri Suzer, Group CEO of Network International.
“By combining our scale, talent, deep market expertise, and strong partnerships, we are creating the region’s largest and most capable fintech platform serving businesses, keeping payments at the core of our services.
We are poised to unlock long-term growth with innovation and deliver even greater value to our customers, partners and shareholders”.
The integration of both businesses will take place in a phased manner, and they will continue to operate as two separate brands, namely Network International and Magnati, for the time being.
