Doha, Qatar

Ooredoo Group today announced a new collaboration with Aduna API Network to make its standardised telecom APIs available to businesses across MENA and around the world through a single global platform.

Banks, fintech, e-commerce platforms, and digital service providers can now integrate directly with Ooredoo APIs - including identity verification, SIM swap, KYC, payments, and communications - enabling secure, cross-border digital transactions without the need for complex integrations or multiple local agreements.

Rene Werner, Group Chief Strategy Officer and Acting Group Chief Commercial Officer, Ooredoo, said: “With this collaboration, we are turning network intelligence into practical business value. Businesses can now plug Ooredoo APIs into their platforms and deliver safer, faster, and more innovative digital services to customers wherever they are.”

This collaboration also marks another step in Ooredoo’s strategy to capture value from the global API economy, where telecom operators are opening their networks to enable innovation, interoperability, and new revenue models across industries.

The initiative builds on Ooredoo’s work with the GSMA’s CAMARA project, which defines global standards for open telecom APIs. Through Aduna, Ooredoo is now operationalising these standards - bringing them to market and connecting its API portfolio to Aduna’s global distribution layer to enable easy access across borders and industries.

“This partnership connects the dots between standardisation and scale. From CAMARA to Aduna, we’re building the full value chain for scalable, interoperable APIs that empower innovation,” Rene added.

Gradual onboarding of Ooredoo operating companies into the Aduna ecosystem is expected by 2026, providing global developers and enterprises with a single point of access to Ooredoo’s digital capabilities.
