Jeeny, the Middle East’s fastest-growing ride-hailing application, announces a new strategic partnership with STC Pay, the developer of the largest digital wallet in the MEA region, to integrate STC Pay as the main payment method for Jeeny drivers.   

Jeeny’s ongoing dedication to enhancing driver services and providing accessible mobility in Saudi Arabia is demonstrated by this relationship. Through the alliance, drivers will be able to easily take their pay from the Jeeny app and deposit it into their STC wallet, bringing new levels of simplicity and efficiency to the earnings distribution process.

Eugen Brickius, Co-CEO of Jeeny said “This partnership marks a significant step in our journey to equip drivers with the resources they need to reach their earning potential.”

Brickius added “From a technology perspective, this partnership is integral to our mission to differentiate Jeeny from its competitors. Our aim is to support our drivers through technology by giving them more options to manage and move their money in real time. Empowering drivers is what sets us apart in the highly competitive ride-hailing industry, and that is our top priority.”

The integration of STC Pay into the Jeeny app is currently in progress, and soon customization and automation options will be available. The aim is to provide a smooth digital experience that allows drivers to manage their finances effortlessly. Jeeny is utilizing advanced payment technologies to ensure that drivers can carry out transactions securely and conveniently.

Additionally, the Financial Sector Development Program, a component of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, aims to encourage the adoption of digital payment solutions and make the country cashless by 2025, with a target of 70% non-cash transactions. Hence, this alliance is in line with Jeeny’s goal of driving innovation and making digital payments more accessible.

Commenting on the fintech and technology alliance with STC Pay, Hammed Ehtesham, Co-CEO at Jeeny said “By teaming up with STC Pay, Jeeny is leading the change in transforming the payments industry. Our goal is to provide unparalleled levels of convenience, efficiency, and automation to the transaction process. Not only will this solution address cash flow challenges, but it will also help to enhance their daily lives by enabling secure and instant access to their earning.”

Megren Ahmed Alshammary, Partnership and Alliances Director at STC Pay said “We are thrilled to join forces with Jeeny to offer their drivers a safer and more user-friendly way to handle their income.”

Alshammary added “This partnership aligns with our mission to promote financial inclusiveness and make digital payments a possibility for everyone.”
