MONEY

Where does your money go?

Your customer pays the shop directly. 1Line does not receive the order amount, and it does not pass through us.

The money path

Example
  1. Your customer picks a payment method the shop has switched on.

  2. They pay with one of the methods the shop has switched on: WAMD number, IBAN, payment link, or cash to the driver.

  3. They upload the transfer screenshot from their order page (for WAMD, transfer or link).

  4. The shop owner checks the amount in their bank and confirms the order.

What 1Line does

  • We show your customer the steps, and keep the order record and the transfer screenshot for the shop. We do not receive the amount, transfer it, or hold it.
  • In pre-orders the deposit is part of the product price and is paid to the shop directly.

How we earn

  • We take no commission on your sales.
  • The founding pilot is free for 30 days. We'll announce prices before the pilot ends.
  • We do not sell personal information, and we show no ads.
  • Bank or payment-gateway fees are between you and them. 1Line adds no fee to any payment method.

WAMD or a payment link from your gateway

You choose what to accept in your payment settings. For online payment there are two routes.

WAMD to your number

  • The route that needs no payment gateway. You enter your WAMD number (a Kuwait mobile number) in your payment settings.
  • Your customer pays from their bank app and uploads the transfer screenshot, and you confirm the order when the money reaches you.
  • Transfer fees, if any, are set by banks, not 1Line.

A payment link from your gateway

  • If your shop already has an account with a payment gateway (MyFatoorah, Tap, UPayments…), you add the payment link from your gateway: one fixed link for all orders, or a link you paste for each order.
  • Your customer pays on the gateway's page, not with us.
  • Card payment inside the shop is not switched on yet.
  • Use a link from your shop's payment gateway, not a personal payment link from your bank account.
  • According to a Times Kuwait report (7 October 2026), banks are moving to phase out individual payment links in favour of WAMD. No closing date had been announced at the date of the report.

Fees and terms are the gateway's own and they change, so check its page before you register.

What to ask a gateway before you register

  1. What are the fees for each payment method (KNET, card), and is there a fixed fee per transaction?
  2. Is there a set-up or subscription fee?
  3. Which documents do you need to activate the account?
  4. When does the money reach your account?
  5. What happens if a customer disputes a payment?

What we do not do with your money

  • We do not receive your order amount, and we do not hold it.
  • We do not charge you automatically. No card, no contract.
  • We add no fee to any payment method.

Straight answers.

What does it cost after the pilot?

The founding pilot is free for 30 days. We'll announce prices before the pilot ends. We never charge you automatically: after the pilot you decide whether to carry on or stop.

How does your customer pay?

You choose what to accept: WAMD to your number, a payment link from your gateway (Tap, MyFatoorah, UPayments…) or bank transfer to your IBAN. Your customer sees clear steps and uploads the transfer screenshot, and you confirm the order once the money reaches you. Money goes straight to you, and 1Line adds no fee to any payment method. Card payment inside the shop isn't switched on yet.

The 1Line team will never ask you for a password or a verification code.
