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

Modified on Mon, 19 Feb at 8:56 AM

BENEFIT is the local payment scheme for debit cards in Bahrain and one of the more popular payment methods adopted by customers in Bahrain, making up 60% of the total transactions in the country.

As such this is a very important payment method to have to develop trust and maximize conversions if you have customers in Bahrain.

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

Enabling BENEFIT acceptance within your online store could also help keep your costs low since the transaction rates for BENEFIT would be less than the transaction rates for Visa/MasterCard payments.

If you’d like to enable BENEFIT 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.
