Doha, Qatar:
Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB), Qatar’s leading digital bank, has announced the
launch of Request to Pay feature on its Fawran instant payment service,
available through the QIB Mobile App. Reinforcing QIB’s commitment to providing
cutting-edge financial solutions, this innovative feature further streamlines
the payment process and increases customer convenience.
The Fawran
Request to Pay service enables customers to request a payment from a registered
Fawran user instantly through the QIB Mobile App. By simply entering the
payer’s alias and the amount needed, the request is sent via Fawran to the

As part of
QIB’s efforts to align with Qatar’s Third Financial Sector Strategy, the
Request to Pay feature enhances the payment and transfer processes by
integrating advanced security protocols and improving accessibility. This
strategic initiative supports Qatar’s vision of becoming a leader in secure
digital banking and financial services, enabling customers to manage their
finances more effectively with a streamlined payment request and receipt
process.

Banking Group, said: “We are pleased to launch the Request to Pay feature, yet
another useful feature in our continuous quest to enhance customer convenience.
This new addition empowers our customers, affirming our commitment to
