What is KNET? How can I accept KNET on my website or mobile app?

Modified on Mon, 19 Feb at 8:56 AM

KNET is the local payment method for debit cards in Kuwait. With over 6 times more KNET cards issued in a year than credit cards, this is the most popular and trusted payment method in Kuwait making up over 85% of all processed transactions in a year.

So if you have customers in Kuwait, this is an important payment method to have enabled on your website or mobile app to ensure trust and maximum conversions.

Through Tap Payments, not only is enabling KNET available to all businesses based in Kuwait but also to businesses based anywhere else in the region- without requiring a business license or bank account in Kuwait. So if you have customers in Kuwait, then you can have KNET enabled instantly for goCollect or goSell.

Enabling KNET within your online store could also help keep your costs low since the transaction rates for KNET would be less than the transaction rates for Visa, MasterCard or any other credit card payments.

If you’d like to enable KNET on your website or mobile app, all you need to do is to request for it. Just message our customer experience agents through the live chat available on the website or goCollect app and we’ll have it enabled for you in less than 24 hours.
