E-commerce in Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman
Tap, PayTabs, QAR, BHD, and OMR checkout with Gulf shipping — Tier 2 GCC coverage on Mrfqy.
Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman share Gulf buying habits — high card penetration, expatriate spending, and Aramex-dominated logistics — while each currency and courier contract differs. Mrfqy lists all three as Tier 2 with Tap and PayTabs payment support, native QAR, BHD, and OMR store currencies, and configurable Gulf shipping zones from one pan-Arab admin. Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman share Tier 2 packs with Tap and PayTabs — QAR, BHD with three decimals, and OMR respectively — plus Aramex shipping and no e-invoicing mandate yet.
Enable Tap and PayTabs per country
Tap and PayTabs cover the card rails Gulf shoppers expect — Visa, Mastercard, and local debit networks. Connect merchant accounts per country in Mrfqy when you operate separate legal entities, or use one gateway contract if your acquirer supports multi-currency settlement.
COD remains relevant in Oman and Bahrain for home goods and first-time brand trials. Toggle COD per storefront when you run separate country packs in Mrfqy.
Display prices in local currency only — mixing QAR and AED on the same checkout confuses customers and breaks trust built on Instagram ads.
Qatar's pack lists Tap and PayTabs for QAR; Bahrain adds Tap and HyperPay for BHD; Oman lists Tap with Aramex. Enable gateways per legal entity — one Mrfqy account can run all three packs with separate credentials.
Configure QAR, BHD, and OMR
Each country pack sets default currency and subdivision labels automatically when you select Qatar, Bahrain, or Oman in Mrfqy store settings.
Bahraini dinar uses three decimal places — price carefully for low-margin SKUs. Omani rial and Qatari riyal typically display to two or three decimals depending on category norms.
