Harnessing our innovative banking solutions to serve charitable work contributes to integrating beneficiaries into the formal banking system, providing them with a secure way to manage their financial needs."
Mr. Saleh bin Hamad Al-Marri, Advisor to the CEO of Qatar Charity and General Supervisor of the Jordan Office, emphasized the project's significance:
"The launch of the Qatar Charity Prepaid Card in cooperation with Jordan Commercial Bank serves as a model for future collaboration between the banking sector and charity organizations. Our primary goal is to ensure that financial aid reaches beneficiary families with maximum speed and efficiency, preserving their dignity and moving away from traditional methods. We hope this card contributes to improving the living conditions of thousands of families throughout 2026, enhancing social stability and ensuring a decent life for all."
