The card, which is integrated with the national network NAPS and QPAY’s online payment portal, ensures secure and convenient shopping experiences for local transactions. The card aims to advance electronic payment services by facilitating seamless transactions at ATMs, POS terminals, and online merchants across Qatar. Its compatibility with NAPS and QPAY ensures widespread acceptance and promotes a cashless economy.

The Himyan debit card offers enhanced security features and enables contactless transactions, aligning with global digital payments trends. Its integration with QIB’s mobile app streamlines the issuance process, allowing customers to acquire the card instantly. The first-time issuance of the Himyan debit card is complimentary, making it an attractive option for both existing and new QIB customers.

QIB’s collaboration with QCB supports financial inclusion in Qatar, offering advantages to a wide range of customers, including existing account holders and individuals seeking to join the banking system. The card’s availability and accessibility contribute significantly to the financial landscape in the country.

QIB’s commitment to sustainability is demonstrated through initiatives like the Carbon Emission Tracker feature on its mobile app, partnering with Visa and ecolytiq to monitor and reduce customers’ carbon footprint associated with card transactions. The Himyan debit card marks a significant step towards realizing Qatar Central Bank’s vision of a cashless society.
