Tarabut

Connecting Data, Embedding Finance, Unlocking Opportunity

MENA's first and largest open banking platform connecting banks and fintechs via universal API. Triple-licensed across Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and UAE. Backed by Tiger Global and Visa.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

Tarabut holds a unique regulatory position — it is the first company licensed under Open Finance frameworks in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE simultaneously. This triple-licensed status gives Tarabut an infrastructural moat that is extremely difficult to replicate. The company has positioned itself as the plumbing layer for financial data across the region.

The February 2026 acquisition of Servable expanded regulated infrastructure capabilities, while partnerships with Saudi National Bank and Geidea demonstrate enterprise-grade commercial traction. With Tiger Global, Visa, and Pinnacle Capital as investors, Tarabut has the backing to become the Open Banking standard for the Middle East.
