In a new step to enhance its financial services and expand its regional scope, Weyay Bank announces the launch of the “AFAQ” service, which is a qualitative leap in the field of bank transfers between the Gulf Cooperation Council countries. “AFAQ”, by linking the payment systems of the Gulf countries, enables financial transfers in the local currencies of these countries to be made faster and at lower cost compared to the traditional methods usually used in transfers.
“AFAQ” is a regional payment system provided by the Gulf Payments Company that aims to facilitate financial transfers in the local currencies of the Gulf countries instantly and at low rates with a high level of privacy and information security. Customers can make transfers to any of the Gulf banks that are “AFAQ” participants effectively without having to worry about currency fluctuations or delays in transfers.
