The footer is the review: Al Maryah Community Bank LLC, a Specialized Bank licensed by the Central Bank of the UAE. The app is Mbank UAE. Routing 009710001. SWIFT E097AEXX. Customer care 600 57 1111. FAQ: no minimum balance; UAE Pass; virtual debit then optional physical. Jaywan is the published card scheme — not a Visa tile this file will invent. Wio and Zand are CBUAE banks in their own names. Liv is Emirates NBD. Polish mBank S.A. and Kyrgyz OJSC mBank are different companies. Eligible deposits follow the UAE licensed-bank scheme; this file does not invent a dirham cap.
What it is
Al Maryah is Abu Dhabi’s community / specialised bank in an app. Directories smash it into Polish mBank because the wordmark is lazy. NeoBankDB will not.
Best for: UAE residents who want a CBUAE specialised bank in the Mbank app, not Wio and not Polish mBank.
