Lite

Lite is a SAMA-licensed payments platform for businesses in Saudi Arabia that combines in-store, online and in-app payment acceptance, corporate card issuance and a business account in one dashboard. It targets everyone from solo founders to multi-branch chains and marketplaces with thousands of sellers. The Riyadh-based company, founded by Fahad Anteet, Mohamed Faheem and Soliman Aldukhil, raised a $3.2 million pre-seed round led by Scene Holding in February 2025 and operates as Lite Advanced Financial Company under a Saudi Central Bank licence.
