The story

Contact appears to be a MENA-focused financial services or fintech company that has moved into embedded lending, partnering with Egyptian neobank Telda to deliver Lending as a Service (LaaS) for consumers. The partnership signals a platform-layer strategy where Contact provides lending infrastructure to digital banking players rather than solely operating a direct-to-consumer model.
