Our history
PayBy was launched in 2005 and authorized as a payment institution to simplify cashless transactions between consumers and businesses.
Acquired by Astra Tech in May, 2022, we received our SVF and RPS licenses from the Central Bank of UAE to provide seamless fintech solutions for Astra tech’s upcoming app on January 5, 2023.
“PayBy has been instrumental in pioneering financial inclusion in the UAE and is considered a key player in the cashless ecosystem. The integration of PayBy’s products with Astra’s ultra platform will allow us to synthesize and grow the ecosystem at a breakneck speed.”
