Founded as Tarabut Gateway, the company began as MENA's first regulated open banking platform, offering compliant AIS/PIS APIs to banks and fintechs in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Over time it expanded beyond pure open-banking compliance toward a full Embedded Finance platform—adding SME lending infrastructure, BaaS APIs for banks and insurers, and AI-driven credit decisioning. The rebranding to 'Tarabut' signals a strategic shift from being a connectivity layer to being MENA's operating system for embedded finance, targeting banks, POS acquirers, fintechs, and industry verticals.
