Dopay, a Egypt-based FinTech and payment solutions company, has appointed Ahmed Nassef as its new Chief Operating Officer (COO) and General Manager.

Dopay – licensed as a banking agent by the Central Bank of Egypt – aims to transform the country’s financial sector. Leveraging an advanced cashless payroll and payments solution, dopay makes it much easier for companies to pay their employees, freelancers, and contractors by quickly replacing high-risk and cumbersome cash payments to these workers with fast and secure digital payments.

Further, dopay can deliver pre-paid cards to these workers within days, who can then use any ATM in Egypt to access their salaries, and they can also use them to shop at any point-of-sale merchant that accepts MasterCard.

Ahmed Nassef, COO and General Manager dopay Egypt,said, “I am truly honored and excited to be part of such an important and impactful fintech company. dopay’s mission resonates deeply with me — to empower and provide essential financial services to millions of unbanked Egyptian employees and workers. Egyptian workers deserve access to the financial mainstream, and we are dedicated to offering them world-class financial accessibility, starting with our dopay prepaid card.”

Ahmed Nassef brings a wealth of experience. With this appointment, he now takes on the challenge of giving access to the digital financial system to millions of Egyptian employees and workers who currently still use cash as their primary transactional method.

As a seasoned business leader with a long track record in the region’s technology and startup sector, Ahmed Nassef will oversee all operations of the company, including sales and marketing, collaboration with businesses and financial partners, customer onboarding, support, and logistics, plus the company’s people and culture strategy.
