Qlub serves up 98.37% global acceptance rate with easy restaurant payments

Qlub makes it easy for restaurant customers to pay at restaurants in just a few seconds via QR code.

When Qlub was ready to expand across borders, its team needed to find a reliable payments provider with experience in the Middle East and North Africa. Qlub decided to join up with Checkout.com in 2022, due to our payment experts’ deep knowledge of payments in MENA, and further afield. 

Thanks to Checkout.com, the restaurant payment solution provider has expanded into Australia, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. Global sales count (measured by authorized payments) grew 13% month-over-month in September 2024. More recently, Qlub has achieved a 98.37% global acceptance rate with Checkout.com

Qlub’s next ambition is to operate in the Bahraini market, which our payment experts are already helping with.

"Expansion into diverse markets is key for us, and Checkout.com provides the payment services we need in the UAE, across the Middle East, and beyond,” shared John Mady, Managing Director, MENA of Qlub. “Their network of alternative payment methods means we can reach and retain more customers, no matter where we go.”

The United Arab Emirates is Qlub’s largest market – just one of the locations in which Checkout.com offered invaluable guidance on regulatory requirements and compliance. This freed up the Qlub team to focus on scaling and expansion, without experiencing delays due to the complexity of foreign market requirements.

Qlub has also achieved a 98.78% net acceptance rate on accounts receivable payments in the UAE. This is thanks to Intelligent Acceptance, the proprietary payments engine powered by fast and reliable machine learning.
