I'm extremely happy to write about Blue's very first FinTech product. From Visa International's regional headquarters in Dubai, both our management and Visa's celebrated the launch of "Blue Platinum" — the first multicurrency platinum prepaid product of its kind in MENA.
At a time when others ship basic products, our Blue team worked hard, days and nights, to go the extra mile and design something that exceeds expectations and raises the bar in the sector. Iraqis deserve multidimensional products and services to explore even more opportunities in the financial sector. This multicurrency product doesn't only expand the possibilities for everyday e-payment users — it also helps SMEs, commerce, and marketers go further in their business journey.
I'm honored to have been among the driving force behind this achievement, with deep gratitude to the Visa International team — Mario Makary, Eman ElGamal, Hala Bou Nasr — and to Mr. Mohanish Agni for the hospitality in Dubai.
