\u201cYaqoot\u201d by Saudi Arabia\u2019s leading telecommunications and digital services provider \u201cZain KSA\u201d announced that visitors arriving in the Kingdom can now verify and register their mobile SIMs through the Ministry of Interior\u2019s digital platform Absher. The announcement serves Yaqoot\u2019s ongoing efforts to deliver the best digital experience to its customers. This service is available under the authentication section (WTHIQ) in the Absher app, making Yaqoot the first digital telecom service to offer such a solution in the Kingdom.<\/p>\n
All \u201cYaqoot\u201d customers arriving in Saudi Arabia\u2014for tourism or to perform Hajj or Umrah\u2014can now obtain either regular SIM cards or embedded eSIMs via the Yaqoot app and register them directly through Absher, without the need to visit a physical store. This marks a major enhancement in customer experience, allowing visitors to conduct identity verification and SIM activation online, rather than requiring in-person fingerprinting at telecom branches.<\/p>\n
Njoud AlShehri, Zain KSA Executive VP of Strategy and Innovation, stated: \u201cOur strategy at Zain KSA is centered on delivering the best human-centric digital experience that enhances the quality of life and elevates the visitor journey to the Kingdom, in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030. Yaqoot exemplifies this human-focused innovation, built on a deep understanding of our customers\u2019 needs and the expectations of the Kingdom\u2019s visitors for a seamless and integrated digital experience. This makes Yaqoot a partner in enriching users\u2019 lives and empowering their aspirations. By collaborating with the Absher platform, Yaqoot enables the Kingdom\u2019s visitors to authenticate their SIMs through the Absher App\u2019s authentication services. This also demonstrates Yaqoot\u2019s digital maturity and its agility in adopting cutting-edge technologies as part of our commitment to a fully integrated digital experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
