Chatbot subscription platforms that meet Saudi payment, tax and data rules.

Codeeo delivers AI chatbot subscription website development Saudi Arabia software companies need to sell assistants legally and profitably across the Kingdom. We build Arabic first pricing sites, checkout through SAMA licensed gateways with mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay and cards, recurring billing with proration and dunning, ZATCA Fatoora invoices, and a self-serve billing area. Each platform is designed around the Personal Data Protection Law, the e-commerce law and the disclosure rules buyers expect, so growth in one city can be repeated in the next without rebuilding the commercial layer.

National rules shape a Saudi subscription business more than its design does. The wrong gateway, an invoice format ZATCA rejects or a missing disclosure on the pricing page can stop revenue or invite a complaint. We settle those foundations first, then make the buying experience simple.

Built for
Saudi registered chatbot and conversational AI companies, and foreign vendors setting up a Saudi entity, selling plans to businesses across the Kingdom.
Typical timeline
We agree timing after discovery, when the gateway, ZATCA integration route, hosting location and rollout order are settled, and confirm the plan in writing before design begins; Riyadh clients can hold that workshop in person.
What you own
Every commercial asset in your Saudi entity's name: gateway account, billing engine, tax records, customer data, pricing configuration and source code.

National foundations we build in

The compliance and payment layer behind every sale.

Selling software by subscription in Saudi Arabia means satisfying several authorities at once. SAMA licenses the payment providers you can use. ZATCA sets the electronic invoice format and, for businesses in the integration phase, requires invoices to be cleared or reported through Fatoora. SDAIA oversees the Personal Data Protection Law, which governs how subscriber details are collected, kept and transferred abroad. The National Cybersecurity Authority publishes controls that large and government linked buyers increasingly ask suppliers about. The Ministry of Commerce administers the e-commerce law, which expects clear seller identity, terms and pricing. A chatbot vendor also has to price Arabic language AI usage fairly and handle WhatsApp costs. We bring these together into one platform: a billing engine such as Chargebee, Stripe Billing or a local recurring gateway, connected to your product, your CRM and your accounts, presented in Arabic first with English alongside.

Explain your project
  • SAMA licensed gateway selection

    We compare licensed providers on what matters for subscriptions: tokenised recurring charges on mada, Apple Pay and STC Pay support, international cards, settlement times and the reporting your finance team needs. The choice is documented with the trade-offs, before any code depends on it.

    You start with a gateway that can actually renew every customer.

  • Fatoora integration

    Standard and simplified tax invoices, debit and credit notes are generated in the required XML format with cryptographic stamps and QR codes. The platform connects to Fatoora for clearance or reporting according to your phase, and stores documents for the retention period required.

    Every renewal produces a valid tax document automatically.

  • E-commerce law disclosures

    Your commercial registration details, contact information, plan terms, renewal and cancellation rules, and refund policy appear where buyers expect them, in Arabic and English. Cancellation from the account area is as easy as signing up.

    Fewer disputes and a site that reads as trustworthy to Saudi buyers.

  • PDPL consent and data rights

    Consent wording at signup, a record of each consent, retention schedules, and tools for subscribers to view, correct or delete their data. We map which billing data leaves the Kingdom and record the transfer basis your legal adviser confirms.

    Personal data in billing is handled as carefully as conversation data.

  • Nafath for high value accounts

    For enterprise or regulated customers you can require identity verification through Nafath before an administrator gains billing rights, through an approved integration route. Small business plans can skip it, keeping self-serve signup short.

    Account takeover risk drops where the money and data are largest.

  • Arabic AI usage pricing

    Arabic text often uses more model tokens than English, and some vendors run Saudi trained models alongside global ones. We meter usage in units customers understand, such as conversations or credits, while the billing engine tracks your real cost underneath.

    Your margin holds whichever language customers use most.

  • Plan changes, proration and dunning

    Upgrades, downgrades, seat changes and add-ons are prorated correctly and each produces a compliant invoice. Failed renewals trigger retries and Arabic reminders, with a grace period that keeps the assistant online while the subscriber fixes payment.

    Revenue recovers without your support team chasing cards.

  • BNPL for annual plans

    Where Tabby or Tamara approve your category for business software, small companies can spread an annual plan into instalments while you receive settlement on the provider's terms. We integrate it as an option on annual checkout only.

    Annual plans become easier to choose for cash conscious SMEs.

  • Multi-city rollout controls

    Region tags on accounts let you run city specific offers, assign account managers in Riyadh, Jeddah or Dammam, and report revenue by region. Pricing remains national, so a customer moving branches does not change plan.

    Expansion to a new city is a configuration change, not a project.

Who this suits nationally

Saudi chatbot companies at different stages of scale.

The Kingdom's chatbot market includes homegrown startups, established software houses adding AI to existing products, and international vendors opening Saudi entities to win local customers. Vision 2030 programmes have pushed many organisations towards digital service, and government linked buyers now expect suppliers to show where data lives and how it is protected. The commercial layer you need depends on where you stand. These are the four situations we see most across the country, each with a different starting point. Discovery runs in person for Riyadh based teams and by video call for vendors in other cities.

01

A foreign vendor entering the Saudi market

International chatbot companies often arrive with a global billing setup that cannot issue Fatoora invoices, does not accept mada and shows prices in dollars. We build a Saudi commercial layer under your local entity: riyal pricing, a SAMA licensed gateway, compliant invoices, Arabic first pages and local hosting where buyers ask for it, while your global product stays unchanged underneath. Your Saudi customers then buy the way they buy everything else.

Set up the Saudi entity and VAT registration before the gateway application.

02

A software house adding a chatbot product

Established Saudi software and IT firms frequently sell projects and support contracts, not subscriptions. Launching a chatbot as a recurring product means new pricing, a public signup and billing that runs without a project manager. AI chatbot SaaS website development Saudi Arabia firms in this position need often starts by separating the subscription catalogue from their project invoicing, so neither confuses the other.

Treat the product as a separate business line with its own reports.

03

A startup scaling beyond its first city

A young vendor that won its first customers in one city now wants Jeddah hotels, Riyadh retailers and Eastern Province contractors. The AI chatbot subscription platform development Saudi Arabia startups need at this stage adds region tags, city specific landing pages, partner referral tracking and pricing that holds across sectors. We build those additions on top of the current system where it is sound.

Expansion often exposes billing shortcuts taken at launch.

04

Vendors selling to government linked buyers

Buyers connected to the public sector ask detailed questions about hosting, cybersecurity and data handling, and they pay through procurement rather than checkout. We add a quote to contract path, annual invoicing, a trust page describing hosting location, PDPL handling and the NCA controls you have implemented, and audit logs on billing access. Every claim on the trust page must be one you can evidence.

Describe controls you meet accurately; never imply a certification.
