Network International Partners With CredibleX To Expand SME Digital Lending Services

Network International, a leading fintech company operating across the Middle East and Africa (MENA), has announced a partnership with CredibleX, a working capital finance platform for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), to expand access to financing for businesses in the UAE.

Through the partnership, CredibleX’s lending solutions will be integrated into Network International’s digital lending marketplace, providing SME merchants with a fully digital and seamless experience to obtain funding. The platform uses real-time transaction data to streamline credit assessments, reducing the time and complexity typically associated with loan applications.

Eligible businesses will be able to view multiple financing options, receive tailored loan offers from CredibleX, and complete the entire borrowing process, from application to disbursement, within a single digital interface.

Jamal Al Nassai, Group Managing Director of Merchant Services for MENA at Network International, said the partnership reflects the company’s commitment to supporting small businesses with accessible and innovative financial tools.

“We’re pleased to partner with CredibleX to expand the range of lending solutions available to our merchants. Our Digital Lending Marketplace is designed to give SMEs faster and easier access to financing through a fully digital and seamless experience,” he said.

Anand Nagaraj, chief executive and co-founder of CredibleX, said the collaboration will “revolutionise SME lending in the region” by improving financial access and flexibility.

“Access to capital is one of the biggest challenges facing small businesses, and our goal is to change that by supporting entrepreneurial growth. Leveraging decision-making insights from the Network platform, our embedded lending model streamlines repayment and provides businesses with the flexibility they need to grow,” he said.

The integration of CredibleX’s solutions offers merchants a transparent and easy-to-understand financing structure based on real-time transaction data. The system ensures simple repayment terms with no hidden costs, empowering SMEs with quick and reliable access to working capital.

Network International’s Digital Lending Marketplace is part of its broader mission to foster financial inclusion and enable the growth of SMEs across the region through technology-driven financial solutions.
