POS weekly transactions hit SAR 13.47B: SAMA
Point-of-sale (POS) transactions in Saudi Arabia reached nearly SAR 13.47 billion in the week ended Aug. 16, compared to roughly SAR 13.68 billion in the previous week. The number of POS transactions reached about 244.78 million last week, compared to nearly 228.52 million in the previous week, according to data issued by SAMA. POS transactions represent consumer expenditures through debit and credit cards at major shopping centers, retail outlets, pharmacies, and others. The data indicated that POS sales increase in the weeks that coincide with the disbursement of salaries to government employees (the 27th of each month), in addition to the weeks that coincide with school vacations and the weeks preceding Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha. On the other hand, the value of sales decreases in the weeks that precede the disbursement of salaries and the weeks that coincide with the back-to-school season. Using the four-week moving average, the value of POS transactions rose in 2024, compared to both 2022 and 2023. In 2024, the average sales value ranged between SAR 11 billion and SAR 14 billion, up from SAR 10 billion to SAR 13 billion in 2023 and SAR 9 billion to SAR 12 billion in 2022. Consumer spending was concentrated in the food and beverage (F&B) sector, totaling SAR 1.88 billion, or 13.9% of this week's total. The restaurants and cafes sector followed closely with SAR 1.69 billion (12.5% of total). Riyadh led by region in terms of POS transaction value for the week ended Aug. 16, reaching approximately SAR 4.59 billion, or 34.1% of the total. Jeddah followed with SAR 1.82 billion (13.5%). According to SAMA's latest data, e-payments in the retail sector (individuals) reached 79% of the total transactions carried out by individuals in the Kingdom during 2024. This achieved the target entailed under the state's Financial Sector Development Program — a Vision 2030 program, which aimed to reach an e-payment ratio of 70% by 2025. Over the past few years, Saudi Arabia has witnessed remarkable progress and rapid growth in adopting e-payment methods. This was a result of the many strategic efforts and initiatives launched by SAMA in cooperation with the financial sector to support the growth of the payments sector and stimulate the use of various e-payment options in the Kingdom.

Türkiye's Karpowership to Supply Iraq with up to 590 MW Electricity
Türkiye's floating power plant operator Karpowership said on Wednesday that it had signed a deal to provide Iraq with up to 590 megawatts (MW) of electricity to stabilize the national grid. Two floating power plants will dock at Khor Al Zubair and Umm Qasr ports in Basra and are expected to be operational within the month. The initial contract, signed with Iraq's Ministry of Electricity and the General Company for Electric Energy Production, is for 71 days, the company said in a statement. Iraq experienced power outages in central and southern regions this month as a sudden shutdown at a power plant led to a fault in the electricity grid.
