01Built for Qatar

What matters in Qatar.

Your customers in Qatar read Arabic, English or both, so a site here has to work for all of them.

  • English and Arabic togetherOne site in both languages, with proper right-to-left Arabic and a switch on every page.
  • NAPS and Apple PayOnline payment through a gateway licensed by Qatar Central Bank that accepts NAPS debit cards, credit cards and Apple Pay.
  • Data protectionForms and privacy pages built with Qatar’s Personal Data Privacy Protection Law (Law No. 13 of 2016) in mind. The Qatar Financial Centre has its own data protection rules for businesses registered there.
  • .qa domainsHelp registering and managing .qa and .com.qa domains through an accredited registrar, as well as .com. A .com.qa domain needs a Qatar commercial registration.
  • Fast on phonesBuilt to load quickly on mobile, where most of your customers will find you.
  • Found on Google in both languagesEnglish and Arabic page titles and descriptions, so searches in either language find you.

02Questions

Before you start.

Do you work with businesses in Qatar remotely?

Yes. We’re based in Perth, Western Australia, and work with businesses online. Doha is 5 hours behind Perth, so our afternoon is your morning.

Can you build in English and Arabic?

Yes. We build full English and Arabic websites with proper right-to-left layout, like the site we built for Dar Al-Imam in Saudi Arabia.

Can customers pay online?

Yes. We connect your site to a payment gateway licensed by Qatar Central Bank that accepts NAPS debit cards, Visa, Mastercard and Apple Pay. You open the merchant account in your business’s name, and we set up the payments on your site.

Does my website need to follow Qatar’s data protection law?

If you collect personal details, Qatar’s Personal Data Privacy Protection Law (Law No. 13 of 2016) can apply, and the Qatar Financial Centre has its own data protection rules for businesses registered there. We build forms and privacy pages with this in mind; for legal advice, speak to a lawyer.

How are projects priced and paid?

You get a written quote with one price before anything starts. Invoices are in Australian dollars, and your bank converts the amount.

Tell us about your project.

Tell us what you need on WhatsApp or by email. You’ll hear back from the developer, usually within two business days, with a clear next step.
