Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — BioWavePass has officially announced a strategic partnership with Link Palm, X-Telcom, et Gekonova to localize the manufacturing and deployment of Palm Pay et palm vein biometric devices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This marks a major leap forward in the regional adoption of Palm Vein Technology for secure payments and digital identity authentication.

📌 A powerful few days in Saudi Arabia have opened a new chapter for palm-based payment and identity verification in the region.

This collaboration supports the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, aiming to develop, produce, and manage advanced biometric solutions locally — serving Saudi Arabia first and expanding globally.


Strategic Agreement Signed for Localized Manufacturing

Under the agreement, Link Palm will hold exclusive rights to manufacture, operate, and deploy palm-based biometric devices across both the public and private sectors in Saudi Arabia.

BioWavePass brings its proprietary biometric technology platform, while X-Telcom et Gekonova will support the local manufacturing pipeline, including production, supply chain, and workforce enablement — laying the foundation for a homegrown biometric ecosystem.

🗨️ “Pushing with the palm of your hand is no longer a futuristic idea, but a reality we are creating today — with national hands from inside the Kingdom.”
— Abdullah Al-Othman, Founder and CEO, Link


Scaling Palm Pay Across the Kingdom

Starting in 2026, the project aims to manufacture and deploy up to 1 million palm vein devices, with an expected economic impact exceeding SAR 600 million in the first two years.

Palm Pay technology will allow users to:

  • ✅ Pay securely without cards or devices
  • ✅ Verify identity without documents or passwords
  • ✅ Access services across retail, banking, government, healthcare, and transit

The rollout will begin in key urban centers like Riyadh, Jeddah, et NEOM.


A Technology Ecosystem Built in Saudi Arabia

This initiative is more than a product launch — it is a full-scale investment in the digital identity and biometric payment infrastructure of Saudi Arabia.

It combines:

  • 🔧 Local hardware manufacturing
  • 💾 Secure biometric software integration
  • 📊 Regulatory compliance and data privacy
  • 🧑‍🏭 Job creation and industrial capability development

BioWavePass and its partners are creating a scalable, export-ready biometric solution that starts in the Kingdom — and is designed to scale globally.
