Network International Launches Network MAX to Boost UAE SME Cash Flow

Network International (Network) , the leading fintech company across the Middle East and Africa (MEA), launched the Network MAX, a new suite of business card solutions designed to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UAE to enhance cash flow, strengthen financial control, and manage day-to-day business payments with greater flexibility.

Network MAX brings together two digital-first solutions tailored to the needs of different SME segments. Many micro and small merchants operate on tight working capital, often waiting for settlement funds to land before they can restock or pay suppliers. Available through the My Network business app, Network MAX directly address this cash flow challenge by giving merchants instant access to their settlement funds, enabling them to support business continuity, while earning cashback on everyday business spend.

For established SMEs and growing businesses, greater scale brings a different challenge: maintaining visibility and control over expenditure. Network MAX Business is built to close that gap, enabling organisations to digitise and govern business expenditure, manage employee spend, and streamline financial operations as they scale.

Developed in partnership with Mastercard, the suite helps UAE-based SMEs reduce cash flow bottlenecks and improve financial flexibility. In addition to instant liquidity, merchants using the Network MAX solutions are eligible to earn cashback on everyday business spend and access a range of offers and benefits, including educational resources, accounting solutions and shipping support. Merchants will also benefit from seamless integration with Network’s value-added services, including remittances, and Network’s lending platform, which facilitates fast and simple POS-based financing, in partnership with leading UAE banks.

“For an SME, the speed at which revenue becomes usable working capital can directly influence its ability to restock, pay suppliers and pursue the next opportunity. Serving businesses across more than 50 countries, we see how access to funds and greater control over spending can shape a company’s ability to grow. Network MAX is the innovative solution built around that need. By bringing settlements, payments, and business spend management together in a single digital experience, we are helping SMEs operate more efficiently and focus on growing their businesses.”

“Our goal at Mastercard is to help merchants of all sizes thrive in a fast-changing digital economy. This collaboration with Network International marks another important milestone in our efforts to expand our reach and support the growth of SMEs in the UAE and beyond. These solutions not only address a critical pain point by providing faster access to settlement funds, but also reward business owners on everyday spend with built-in security and convenience. This collaboration reflects our ongoing commitment to driving digital transformation and financial inclusion for small businesses across the region.”
