GatetoPay Joins Mastercard Product Express to Expand Card Services for Jordan’s Fintech Sector
GatetoPay has joined the Mastercard Product Express platform, strengthening its position as a fintech infrastructure provider and helping accelerate the development of digital payment solutions across Jordan.
The collaboration forms part of Mastercard’s broader Engage Programme, an initiative designed to simplify how fintech companies launch payment products by connecting them with trusted technology and service providers. Through its inclusion on the Mastercard Product Express platform, GatetoPay will offer fintechs streamlined access to Bank Identification Number (BIN) sponsorship and Card-as-a-Service (CaaS) capabilities, enabling faster product launches and more efficient market entry.
By listing GatetoPay on Mastercard’s Product Express marketplace, fintech companies can now directly select the company as their preferred BIN sponsor or Card-as-a-Service provider. This approach reduces the complexity of launching payment cards while accelerating product development and regulatory compliance.
Adam Jones, Division President, West Arabia at Mastercard, said the partnership reflects Mastercard’s commitment to supporting innovation across Jordan’s growing fintech ecosystem.
He noted that Product Express enables fintech companies to leverage Mastercard’s global network and expertise, helping them introduce secure, scalable and competitive payment solutions to the market more quickly.
Rasha Asfour, General Manager of GatetoPay, described the collaboration as a significant milestone for the company.
She said Mastercard’s support throughout the onboarding process has enabled GatetoPay to provide fintechs and startups with compliant, scalable and seamless Card-as-a-Service solutions, allowing them to innovate more efficiently within Jordan’s evolving digital payments landscape.
Beyond improving visibility within the fintech ecosystem, GatetoPay plans to use the Product Express platform to strengthen its Card-as-a-Service (CaaS) and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offerings. The company intends to provide comprehensive payment infrastructure for fintech businesses operating in Jordan while expanding these capabilities to regional markets in the future.
The partnership highlights the continued growth of Jordan’s fintech sector, where demand for embedded financial services, digital payment platforms and faster product deployment continues to increase. By reducing barriers to market entry, GatetoPay and Mastercard aim to help fintech innovators deliver secure financial products to customers more efficiently while supporting the Kingdom’s broader digital transformation agenda.
