Darb Productions is a mobile app development company serving the large Arabic-speaking markets by search volume, including Egypt — remotely from its Riyadh headquarters, building native iOS and Android apps and cross-platform React Native apps for startups, SMEs, and enterprises in Cairo, Alexandria, Giza, New Administrative Capital, Sharm El Sheikh and every other city. There is no in-country branch in Egypt; the model is remote-first. App Store and Google Play accounts are opened in the name of your General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI)-registered company; we handle the DUNS number step. Mobile payment integrations handled in-house: Fawry, Paymob, Instapay, Vodafone Cash, Meeza, PayTabs, HyperPay. Pricing is flexible (fixed price, retainer, or 12-month instalments from USD 229/month) — USD-invoiced from the Saudi entity.

WHY DARB FOR EGYPT

What you get, beyond the code.

One team owns design, iOS, Android, and backend

No four-vendor chain. Same team designs the flow, ships the iOS build, the Android build, the backend, and the App Store submission. One accountability line for the whole product — critical when you're paying from Egypt for delivery from Riyadh.

Egypt's mobile payment stack, wired properly

Fawry, Paymob, Instapay, Vodafone Cash, Meeza, PayTabs, HyperPay — integrated with the correct SDK for each, tested end-to-end on real local cards and phone numbers, not just sandbox. International cards (Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay) supported too.

Arabic RTL as a first-class citizen

The app ships fully bilingual (Arabic + English) with proper RTL layout, native Arabic fonts, and reversed animations — not the broken RTL you get when Arabic is bolted on later.

App Store and Google Play submission handled

Apple Developer + Google Play Console accounts opened under your General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI) trade licence, DUNS number setup, TestFlight builds, App Store review responses. You don't need to learn App Store Connect to ship.

Backend that scales with local internet reality

PostgreSQL, Node.js, monitoring — plus offline-first patterns for zones with unreliable connectivity, smart image compression for 3G/4G audiences, and hosting close to the region for lower latency.

You own the source code

On any of our payment models, the full source code (iOS, Android, backend, deployment config) transfers to your GitHub organisation. No SDK lock-in, no black-box runtime, no vendor gate.

HOW IT WORKS

From brief to App Store live.

01

Discovery + scope (remote)

One-week paid discovery over Zoom + WhatsApp: user flows, screen inventory, backend model, payment integration list (Fawry, Paymob...), cross-border payment plan.

02

Design + prototype

Interactive Figma prototype. You click through the app before we write code. Every screen signed off in Arabic and English before development starts.

03

Two-week build sprints

Every sprint ships to TestFlight and Play Beta on your team's phones. You use the app while we build it.

04

Store submission + launch

Apple Developer + Google Play Console opened under your General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI) trade licence, DUNS registration, submission, reviewer responses, staged rollout coordinated with your marketing.

05

Ongoing updates + support

Post-launch: OS updates, Apple/Google policy changes, bug fixes, new-feature sprints. Retainer or per-sprint pricing.

QUESTIONS

Everything Egyptian founders ask us.

Do you have a branch in Egypt?

No. Darb Productions is headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and delivers to Egyptian clients remotely — daily WhatsApp, weekly Zoom, GitHub for code, Figma for design. All contracts and invoices are issued from our Saudi entity. If you need someone physically on-site for a specific milestone, we quote it as a separately-billed travel line.

How much does a mobile app cost in Egypt?

On Darb's instalment plan, a store + iOS + Android package starts at USD 229/month for 12 months. Enterprise or custom-integration apps are quoted separately, typically USD 15,000 to USD 90,000+ depending on scope.

Do you integrate Fawry, Instapay, and Paymob in-house?

Yes. These three are the backbone of Egyptian e-payment; each integrated with its correct SDK and tested end-to-end on real Egyptian cards before launch. Meeza and Vodafone Cash added for products that need them.

Why serve the Egyptian market from Riyadh instead of opening a Cairo branch?

USD-priced with a core team operating from Riyadh keeps operational overhead low; we pass that saving to the Egyptian client as transparent USD pricing across every scope. The model is shaped to serve the Egyptian market with no middleman.

Can we publish under our Egyptian company on the App Store and Google Play?

Yes. Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts opened under your GAFI-registered Egyptian company; DUNS setup and submission handled end-to-end.

How long does a USD wire from Egypt take?

USD wires from Banque Misr, NBE, or QNB Alahli to our Saudi account typically take 3 to 7 business days. Alternatives: USDT settlement for speed, or payment via a Gulf-based holding entity.

Ready to ship your Egyptian app?

Fastest path is WhatsApp — send a one-paragraph brief and we reply within business hours (Riyadh time) with a fit read and rough scope. Cross-border by design, tuned for the Egyptian market.
