ThinkMarkets, a multi-asset trading provider, has announced new payment options for customers in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The company recently obtained regulatory approval from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), further expanding its operations in the region.

Expanded Payment Options

Traders in the MENA region can now fund their accounts using local bank cards, Google Pay, and Apple Pay, with supported currencies including Qatari Riyal, UAE Dirham, Saudi Riyal, and Omani Riyal.

With the DFSA license, ThinkMarkets can offer advanced trading tools to clients in the UAE. These tools are integrated into the ThinkTrader platform and include the Signal Centre, TrendRisk Scanner, and Traders’ Gym, aimed at enhancing the trading experience for investors in the region.

Faizan Anees, ThinkMarkets’ Co-CEO and Co-Founder, commented on the new DFSA license: “The UAE and the broader MENA region represent a high-growth market. This new license will enable us to attract new customers in the region in a regulated and secure manner.”

“Our new DFSA license will help better serve our client base while assisting ThinkMarkets in expanding into new strategic markets in the region.”

TradingView Integration

Meanwhile, ThinkMarkets has integrated the TradingView charting platform into its ThinkTrader website. According to Finance Magnates, this integration allows traders to expand their analytical capabilities and monitor up to eight charts simultaneously.

A statement on the brokerage’s website indicates that this enhancement provides stronger market visibility, enabling users to track multiple assets or market dynamics simultaneously. It includes custom views of market trends over various time intervals and access to historical data navigation.

This expansion and technological integration mark ThinkMarkets’ ongoing development in the Middle East and North Africa, aimed at providing more convenience and powerful trading tools to traders in the region.
