A Shopify Plus developer for Riyadh brands
Checkout, language and invoicing set up the way Saudi shoppers and ZATCA expect.
What changes when you sell in the Kingdom
A Shopify Plus store built for the Gulf in general often misses what Saudi customers look for. mada, the national payment network run by the Saudi Central Bank, needs to work at checkout. Many shoppers expect Tabby or Tamara instalments. And the storefront has to read well in Arabic, right to left.
On the back office side, Saudi e-invoicing (Fatoora) is now in its integration phase. Your invoices come from your accounting or ERP system, so Shopify orders need to flow there cleanly. I build the store and those links together. For a general Saudi build, see Shopify developer in Saudi Arabia.
What a Riyadh Shopify Plus build covers
- Checkout for Saudi shoppers — mada cards, Apple Pay and Tabby or Tamara through providers that support them, tested with real cards before launch.
- Arabic storefront — a right-to-left theme with Arabic typography, and English on its own locale for expats and GCC buyers.
- SAR pricing with Markets — Saudi riyal prices, duties settings and a separate market if you also sell in the UAE or Kuwait.
- ERP and e-invoicing link — orders, refunds and customer tax details passed to the system that issues your ZATCA e-invoices.
- Delivery and COD rules — shipping zones by city, delivery partner apps and cash-on-delivery rules set in Shopify Functions.
- Data and consent — checkout and marketing consent planned around Saudi Arabia's Personal Data Protection Law.
