iACCEL Gulf Business Incubator (iACCEL GBI), a leading go-to market accelerator based in Dubai, has announced a strategic partnership with TrustIn, Middle East’s first regulated digital escrow platform. The collaboration aims to democratize and simplify escrow services, making them more accessible through a user-friendly digital platform.
iACCEL Gulf Business Incubator has onboarded over 20 startups from across the globe over the last 17 months. With a strong value proposition, the company offers comprehensive support to startups to facilitate their growth and expansion in the UAE and GCC region.
FSRA, ADGM certified Trustin intends to streamline the payment process by offering a comprehensive and easily accessible escrow platform to all stakeholders for a seamless and more cost-effective transaction experience for consumers, local businesses, and companies. All the parties involved in a transaction are required to adhere to the highest standards of Know Your Customer (KYC) and Know Your Business (KYB) processes. Trustin safeguards the interests of businesses by enhancing the safety and trustworthiness of financial transactions, making it the preferred choice for companies seeking reliable and transparent escrow solutions.
Commenting on the partnership, Deepak Ahuja, CEO of iACCEL GBI, said, “The UAE has rapidly emerged as a global hub for innovation and trade, attracting businesses
from across the world. However, one of the significant challenges within this thriving ecosystem is the risk associated with open trade, especially for SMEs and the retail market. TrustIn is stepping in to solve this problem by providing a regulated digital escrow platform that ensures
transparency, security, and legal protection for all parties involved in B2B, B2C or C2C
transactions. By leveraging TrustIn, businesses in the UAE can now engage in trade with greater confidence, knowing that their payments and deliveries are safeguarded. This not only fosters trust but also accelerates the growth of SMEs, reinforcing the UAE’s position as a leading destination for business and innovation and holds significant potential for expansion into other geographies. We, at iACCEL GBI, are committed to supporting them in this journey.”
