Does Ortem build apps with Arabic (RTL) language support?

Yes, RTL Arabic support is a core capability for our UAE and GCC projects. This includes bidirectional text rendering, RTL layout mirroring, Arabic typography optimization, and culturally appropriate UI patterns. We test on real Arabic language devices rather than emulators.

Which UAE payment gateways does Ortem integrate with?

We have experience integrating Telr, Checkout.com, PayTabs, PayFort (Amazon Payment Services), and network payments. We are also familiar with the UAE Central Bank's open banking framework requirements for licensed financial applications.

Can Ortem help with Saudi Arabia Vision 2030 or UAE digital transformation projects?

Yes. Our team has worked on projects aligned with Vision 2030 digital transformation initiatives, including smart government applications, citizen service portals, and national data platform integrations. We are familiar with National Unified SSO (UAE PASS) integration requirements.

What is the typical project timeline and cost for UAE clients?

A standard mobile app MVP for the UAE market takes 6–10 weeks and costs $15,000–$40,000 depending on features and Arabic localization complexity. Enterprise projects typically range from $50,000–$200,000. We offer pricing in AED/USD and can provide commercial invoices compliant with UAE VAT regulations.

Why Ortem?

Why United Arab Emirates Businesses Choose Ortem

Ortem Technologies is a premier software development company serving clients in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and across the Gulf region. We understand the unique requirements of the GCC market - Arabic language support, locally compliant payment gateways, Vision 2030 alignment, and government digital transformation initiatives. Our globally distributed engineering team delivers world-class software at GCC-compatible pricing.

Local Market Context

The UAE is executing one of the most ambitious technology modernisation programmes in the world — Dubai's D33 Economic Agenda targets $100 billion in new economy GDP by 2033, with digital infrastructure as a core pillar. Every software product serving UAE financial institutions must pass CBUAE (Central Bank of the UAE) IT risk assessment requirements, which impose strict data residency, encryption, and disaster recovery standards. The UAE's TDRA (Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority) governs data protection under the Federal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree Law No. 45 of 2021), introducing GDPR-aligned consent and breach notification obligations for all businesses handling UAE resident data. Abu Dhabi's ADGM (Abu Dhabi Global Market) and Dubai's DIFC (Dubai International Financial Centre) each operate independent regulatory frameworks with their own data protection legislation — software serving financial services clients in these free zones must satisfy ADGM PDPL or DIFC DPL requirements separately from the federal law.
