Network International, a leading fintech company across the Middle East and Africa, has announced a strategic collaboration with Dubai-based airline flydubai to enhance the passenger payment experience at Dubai International Airport (DXB).
Under the partnership, Network International has integrated its advanced Push to Pay solution on point-of-sale (POS) terminals across flydubai’s airport service touchpoints. The solution enables fast, secure, and frictionless payments by removing the need for manual card entry, significantly improving transaction speed and convenience for passengers.
The Push to Pay technology supports all major international card schemes, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Diners Club, while also expanding payment acceptance to Jaywan, the UAE’s national payment scheme. This wider acceptance provides passengers with greater flexibility and choice, allowing them to complete transactions with ease and confidence throughout their airport journey.
Commenting on the collaboration, Jamal Al Nassai, Group Managing Director, Merchant Services at Network International, said, “Our collaboration with flydubai reflects our shared commitment to innovation and elevating the customer experience at every touchpoint. By integrating our Push to Pay solutions on POS terminals, we are helping deliver a smoother, more efficient journey for travellers.”

As part of the partnership, flydubai will continue to benefit from Network International’s expanding portfolio of innovative payment solutions, ensuring reliability and ongoing enhancements to the passenger experience.
