Smart Dubai Government Establishment, the technology arm of Smart Dubai Office which assumes the responsibility for managing and supervising the implementation of Dubai Government’s electronic and smart transformation, announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Emaratech, an IT and software company.

The Memorandum of Understanding is to prepare a work plan and conduct a feasibility study to help further develop solutions and software that are integral to meeting Dubai Government’s goals and aspirations towards electronic and smart transformation.

The MoU strengthens the cooperation and smart partnership between the public sector and leading companies, which is seen as a key driver to the success of Dubai’s continuing transformation into a Smart City, especially through the use of innovative technology in all fields to make the future of Dubai in fulfillment of the vision set by the country’s wise leadership to bring happiness to the future of the emirate.

The MoU contributes to the provision of shared smart services for electronic payment, which is now widely being encouraged as a safe payment method in Dubai. The agreement is expected to add safer electronic payment methods as the Noqodi payment gateway will attract investments that will later be developed in line with Smart Dubai Government’s requirements.

In addition, the E-Wallet app will be connected to Smart Dubai Government’s ePay portal, which will provide a new and diverse payment method for customers, enabling them to make smart payments through various methods that can save their time and effort.

Users can benefit from the features of the single sign-in feature to all the electronic and smart services provided by government entities through a single username and password.
