Ooredoo Group teamed up with Aduna, the global Network API aggregator, to make its standardized telecom APIs accessible to businesses across MENA and around the globe through a single, global platform.
This alliance enables banks, fintech companies, e‑commerce sites, and digital service providers to connect with Ooredoo’s APIs, which can work on identity checks, SIM swaps, KYC, payments, and communications, letting them do secure, cross‑border digital transactions without complex integrations or many local agreements.
The collaboration is a milestone in Ooredoo's strategy to take attention from the global API economy, where telecom operators are opening their networks to enable innovation, interoperability, and new revenue models across industries.
By building on GSMA’s CAMARA standard for open telecom APIs, the partnership with Aduna makes those global standards real, linking Ooredoo Group’s API portfolio with Aduna’s worldwide aggregation layer so businesses across industries and countries can access them simply and securely.
Ooredoo is a global communications company in the Middle East, North Africa, and Southeast Asia, offering mobile, fixed‑line, broadband, and business services to help enrich people’s digital lives.
Aduna is a global telecom venture that gives developers easy access to mobile‑network features using standard APIs.
