Footer restates capital SAR 1,500,000,000. SAMA’s 15 September 2025 news item granted a non-objection to commence digital banking operations. D360 (CR 1010822737, capital SAR 2.1bn) and STC Bank (ex stc pay) are the other SAMA digital-bank files. Barq is an e-wallet. meem is Gulf International Bank’s skin. Shariah committee members are named on the About page. Eligible deposits follow the kingdom’s bank scheme — confirm the live cap on SAMA, not a roundup.

What it is

The third SAMA digital-bank licence, live enough to print a CR and a Riyadh national address. Directories that still list Vision as ‘coming soon’ missed September 2025.

Best for: Saudi residents who want the third SAMA digital bank (after D360 and STC Bank), with Shariah on the charter.

Last checked 2026-09-03. Not advice.
