WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING WOULD YOU SAY IS A MAJOR FACTOR FOR
RETURNS FROM CASH-ON-DELIVERY?
"Logistics is clearly the largest issue affecting Cash-on-Delivery returns. The time between purchase and payment leads customers to change their mind and
abandon the sale."
SOUQ.COM
RONALDO MOUCHAWAR,
CEO
"The Arab World has one of the highest mobile
penetration rates in the world which has led to mobile
e-commerce sales taking off in the last few years.
Mobile is the biggest platform for most e-commerce
merchant sales in the region. In many online shopping
categories, such as fashion, mobile sales are already
higher than web-based transactions, and by the end of
2015 we expect mobile to completely overtake web."
JADOPADO
OMAR KASSIM,
CEO
"Logistics and getting from point to point is a solved
problem, but the bottle neck is customs clearance. We
like to think the GCC is one large market, but in reality
it’s six countries each with their own customs rules
and regulations. Many a time, we’ve attempted a GCC
Customs union, which hasn’t gone anywhere yet.
Attempting to return a product from KSA to a seller in
the UAE is essentially treated as an export rather than
a returns, pushing fulfilment costs to be significantly
higher than they should be. The solution to this would
be to build industry bodies that lobby governments to
improve the customs environment and push for a
customs union to take place over the next two to three
years."

KHUDARJI
NASR SHAMMOUT,
CEO
"For e-commerce sites especially those who deal with
perishable items, such as ourselves, you cannot count
on any third party logistics for delivery fulfillment due
to the nature of the products that requires special
attention, quick delivery, and most importantly cheap
in order to make business sense. Some customers
expect immediate delivery like Pizza delivery, but
fulfillment realistically takes between 2-8 hours after
submitting the order which is not something that they
are used to. A few years ago services like this wouldn't
have even existed anywhere in the world, but now
more grocery eCommerce sites are popping up
everyday. For our region, there still needs to be an
adjustment phase for this behavior, whereas expats
are more used to such a service."
DEALGAMED
ELHAKIM,
MARKETING MANAGER
"In a fierce competition such as e-commerce in the
Arab world, an e-commerce business has always to
thrive for excellence, businesses have to create the
best customer online shopping experience. In a way
that users can navigate through a user friendly type
of website, they can easily search for a deal or a
product. In the e-commerce field you have to create
for your users a pleasant experience, one that can
have plenty of products to shop between a vast array
of different unique categories and brands. In today's
e-commerce, you need a sharp edged customer
service team that can serve users around the clock,
from questions, inquiries as well as helping them
through placing the order process over the phone, or
via the website Customer Service chat. To be able to
help the customer through the journey, as a whole."

Welcome to the State of Payments 2015 by Payfort.This is our annual report on the world of
payments, ecommerce and innovation in the Arab World.
With data from the consumer and merchant side this report provides actionable insight that
will help you create a more successful, profitable and consumer friendly business.
A year ago we released our first iteration of the State of Payments. That effort came out
of a desire to increase our own understanding of the behavior of consumers in the
countries we operate in and to share that information with the growing ecommerce
community in the Arab World.
This year’s report contains the same consumer-centric data that will help you
understand the market’s behavior in regards to payments and ecommerce. But it also
presents a much fuller picture by taking in the opinions of hundreds of merchants
who interact with consumers on a day-to-day basis.
We encourage you to share your thoughts on the report via social media on
#StateofPayments orbysending an emailto Faisal Al Khalidi (fkhalidi@payfort.com).
WHY THE STATE OF PAYMENTS?
The report is divided into five sections: Airlines, Travel and Tourism, Ecommerce,
Marketplace Services and Demographics. Geographicallythe report covers Egypt, Lebanon,
Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and UAE. It is divided into responsive, interactive sections so
you can view the data easily and with specific attention to your vertical.
We hope you like it and use it as a starting point for a conversation about the state of
payments in the Arab World.
ABOUT THE REPORT
This report was written and created by the Payfort Team. Words were provided by Faisal
Al-Khalidi, Omar Soudodi and Nardeen Abdalla while art came from the imagination and
cursor of Seham Syed.

Great care and detail was put intothe datathat informsthis report.The Payfortteam worked in conjunction with partners, merchants and consumersto gatherprimaryand secondarydata.The heart
of our research was surveys that we conducted with hundreds of merchants and thousands of consumers across Egypt, UAE, Jordan, Lebanon, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. This data was broken
down by our in-house team of market analysts and country managers. Please find below notes on specific elements of the data. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to email Faisal Al Khalidi
(fkhalidi@payfort.com). We will also try to accommodate any additional data requests if there are any areas where you are looking for a little bit of extra information.
Market Sizes
We used a bottom-up approach to evaluate the market and calculate market sizes. We
researched the number of consumers in each market as well as average user behavior and
combined this data with feedback from companies within each industry.
Growth forecasts are based upon historical rates as per data gathered between 2011 – 2015.
Travel & Tourism
Data is taken from online travel agents in the region across hotel and airline segments.
Ecommerce
This section includes any merchants that sell physical products online such as electronics,
clothes and white goods.
This definition differs from a more expansive definition of ecommerce that includes
non-physical products sold online as we wanted to cover those in greater detail. You can
find this information in Marketplace Services, Travel & Tourism, and Airlines.
Demographics
The data in this section is based upon a survey of four thousand online buyers across UAE,
KSA, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Kuwait conducted through YouGov.
Airlines
Data is based upon transactions via internet booking engines from established and low-cost
airlines in the region.
This does not include bookings made through third party sites such as Expedia.
Other revenue streams for airlines are not included in this data.
METHODOLOGY
50stateofpayments.com |
Transaction and Volume/Size
The data in these sections are not representative of the entire market but are instead a
cross-section of 10+ merchants in each sector.
The data is intended to demonstrate the seasonality in each sector, however, due to
confidentiality we cannot reveal true transaction figures.
The figures charted on the graphs represent divergence from the 12 month average. So
if transaction volume figure in September is 3,000 that means there were 3,000 more
transactions than the 12 month average.
All data is inclusive of online credit card transactions only. Cash-on-Delivery
transactions are not taken into consideration.
Industry Surveys
Survey results are based upon 100+ responses to a custom survey created by Payfort.
Respondents include SMEs (small and medium enterprises) and enterprise level firms.
Currency
All figures are in USD.
Ratios
Acceptance, Chargeback and Refund ratios are based upon surveys of businesses in the
region. This includes firms that use Payfort and competitor payment solutions.
What is an acceptance ratio?This ratio simplytells us how manycustomers can successfullyuse
their credit card on a website. This is based upon the number of credit card transaction
attempts and the number of those transactions that are approved.
What is a chargeback ratio? A chargeback is when a customer says that they did not authorize
a transaction and request it to be refunded. In short this ratio indicates the percentage of
transactions that are reported as fraudulent.
What is a refund ratio? A refund occurs when the merchant and the customer agree to refund
the purchase for one reason or another. Unlike chargebacks this transaction does not involve
the issuing bank.

  • 22. SOUQ.COM RONALDO MOUCHAWAR, CEO "The Arab World has one of the highest mobile penetration rates in the world which has led to mobile e-commerce sales taking off in the last few years. Mobile is the biggest platform for most e-commerce merchant sales in the region. In many online shopping categories, such as fashion, mobile sales are already higher than web-based transactions, and by the end of 2015 we expect mobile to completely overtake web." JADOPADO OMAR KASSIM, CEO "Logistics and getting from point to point is a solved problem, but the bottle neck is customs clearance. We like to think the GCC is one large market, but in reality it’s six countries each with their own customs rules and regulations. Many a time, we’ve attempted a GCC Customs union, which hasn’t gone anywhere yet. Attempting to return a product from KSA to a seller in the UAE is essentially treated as an export rather than a returns, pushing fulfilment costs to be significantly higher than they should be. The solution to this would be to build industry bodies that lobby governments to improve the customs environment and push for a customs union to take place over the next two to three years."

  • 23. KHUDARJI NASR SHAMMOUT, CEO "For e-commerce sites especially those who deal with perishable items, such as ourselves, you cannot count on any third party logistics for delivery fulfillment due to the nature of the products that requires special attention, quick delivery, and most importantly cheap in order to make business sense. Some customers expect immediate delivery like Pizza delivery, but fulfillment realistically takes between 2-8 hours after submitting the order which is not something that they are used to. A few years ago services like this wouldn't have even existed anywhere in the world, but now more grocery eCommerce sites are popping up everyday. For our region, there still needs to be an adjustment phase for this behavior, whereas expats are more used to such a service." DEALGAMED ELHAKIM, MARKETING MANAGER "In a fierce competition such as e-commerce in the Arab world, an e-commerce business has always to thrive for excellence, businesses have to create the best customer online shopping experience. In a way that users can navigate through a user friendly type of website, they can easily search for a deal or a product. In the e-commerce field you have to create for your users a pleasant experience, one that can have plenty of products to shop between a vast array of different unique categories and brands. In today's e-commerce, you need a sharp edged customer service team that can serve users around the clock, from questions, inquiries as well as helping them through placing the order process over the phone, or via the website Customer Service chat. To be able to help the customer through the journey, as a whole." INDUSTRY EXPERT INTERVIEWS 22stateofpayments.com |

  • 49. Welcome to the State of Payments 2015 by Payfort.This is our annual report on the world of payments, ecommerce and innovation in the Arab World. With data from the consumer and merchant side this report provides actionable insight that will help you create a more successful, profitable and consumer friendly business. A year ago we released our first iteration of the State of Payments. That effort came out of a desire to increase our own understanding of the behavior of consumers in the countries we operate in and to share that information with the growing ecommerce community in the Arab World. This year’s report contains the same consumer-centric data that will help you understand the market’s behavior in regards to payments and ecommerce. But it also presents a much fuller picture by taking in the opinions of hundreds of merchants who interact with consumers on a day-to-day basis. We encourage you to share your thoughts on the report via social media on #StateofPayments orbysending an emailto Faisal Al Khalidi (fkhalidi@payfort.com). WHY THE STATE OF PAYMENTS? The report is divided into five sections: Airlines, Travel and Tourism, Ecommerce, Marketplace Services and Demographics. Geographicallythe report covers Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and UAE. It is divided into responsive, interactive sections so you can view the data easily and with specific attention to your vertical. We hope you like it and use it as a starting point for a conversation about the state of payments in the Arab World. ABOUT THE REPORT This report was written and created by the Payfort Team. Words were provided by Faisal Al-Khalidi, Omar Soudodi and Nardeen Abdalla while art came from the imagination and cursor of Seham Syed.

  • 50. 49stateofpayments.com | Great care and detail was put intothe datathat informsthis report.The Payfortteam worked in conjunction with partners, merchants and consumersto gatherprimaryand secondarydata.The heart of our research was surveys that we conducted with hundreds of merchants and thousands of consumers across Egypt, UAE, Jordan, Lebanon, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. This data was broken down by our in-house team of market analysts and country managers. Please find below notes on specific elements of the data. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to email Faisal Al Khalidi (fkhalidi@payfort.com). We will also try to accommodate any additional data requests if there are any areas where you are looking for a little bit of extra information. Market Sizes We used a bottom-up approach to evaluate the market and calculate market sizes. We researched the number of consumers in each market as well as average user behavior and combined this data with feedback from companies within each industry. Growth forecasts are based upon historical rates as per data gathered between 2011 – 2015. Travel & Tourism Data is taken from online travel agents in the region across hotel and airline segments. Ecommerce This section includes any merchants that sell physical products online such as electronics, clothes and white goods. This definition differs from a more expansive definition of ecommerce that includes non-physical products sold online as we wanted to cover those in greater detail. You can find this information in Marketplace Services, Travel & Tourism, and Airlines. Demographics The data in this section is based upon a survey of four thousand online buyers across UAE, KSA, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Kuwait conducted through YouGov. Airlines Data is based upon transactions via internet booking engines from established and low-cost airlines in the region. This does not include bookings made through third party sites such as Expedia. Other revenue streams for airlines are not included in this data. METHODOLOGY
  • 51. 50stateofpayments.com | Transaction and Volume/Size The data in these sections are not representative of the entire market but are instead a cross-section of 10+ merchants in each sector. The data is intended to demonstrate the seasonality in each sector, however, due to confidentiality we cannot reveal true transaction figures. The figures charted on the graphs represent divergence from the 12 month average. So if transaction volume figure in September is 3,000 that means there were 3,000 more transactions than the 12 month average. All data is inclusive of online credit card transactions only. Cash-on-Delivery transactions are not taken into consideration. Industry Surveys Survey results are based upon 100+ responses to a custom survey created by Payfort. Respondents include SMEs (small and medium enterprises) and enterprise level firms. Currency All figures are in USD. Ratios Acceptance, Chargeback and Refund ratios are based upon surveys of businesses in the region. This includes firms that use Payfort and competitor payment solutions. What is an acceptance ratio?This ratio simplytells us how manycustomers can successfullyuse their credit card on a website. This is based upon the number of credit card transaction attempts and the number of those transactions that are approved. What is a chargeback ratio? A chargeback is when a customer says that they did not authorize a transaction and request it to be refunded. In short this ratio indicates the percentage of transactions that are reported as fraudulent. What is a refund ratio? A refund occurs when the merchant and the customer agree to refund the purchase for one reason or another. Unlike chargebacks this transaction does not involve the issuing bank. METHODOLOGY
