Products that ship
with today's Yemen — not against it.
Tech services that reach the Yemeni market remotely, with a payment model designed to route around today's constraints.
Darb Productions builds websites and e-commerce stores for Yemeni businesses with a build shaped for the local reality — hosting that works on intermittent networks, a payment model designed to route around banking constraints, Alkuraimi as the primary rail. The Yemeni market operates under severe constraints, relying on local wallets (Alkuraimi) and hawala remittance. We serve Yemeni clients remotely from Riyadh, primarily via USDT settlement.
Darb Productions is a website development company working with Yemeni businesses on a delivery and payment model designed for the local reality — remotely from its Riyadh headquarters. There is no in-country branch in Yemen; the model is remote-first: contract with the Saudi entity, daily communication over WhatsApp / Zoom / GitHub. Main cities covered (Sana'a, Aden, Taiz, Hodeidah, Mukalla) plus all others. USD pricing with invoicing from the Saudi entity, settlement via SWIFT or USDT depending on client preference. Payment integrations handled in-house: Alkuraimi, Cactus, Islamic Wallet, hawala remittance, USD cash. Hosting on AWS Middle East (Bahrain) to keep latency low.

What you get, beyond the pages.
Arabic RTL that reads like it was built in Arabic first
Content is written natively in Arabic (not translated from English), with proper Arabic fonts and native RTL layout, mirrored icons and animations. The product feels built for the Arabic-speaking audience in Yemen, not adapted.
Alkuraimi and local rails wired natively
Alkuraimi, Cactus, Islamic Wallet, hawala remittance, USD cash — each integrated with its official SDK, tested end-to-end on real local cards before launch. International cards (Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay) supported on the same checkout.
Hosting close to the region, not in the US
Default hosting is AWS Middle East (Bahrain), giving Yemen visitors materially lower latency than the US-hosted sites most local agencies still ship.
Cross-border payment terms that actually work
Primarily USDT / crypto settlement, or hawala remittance networks to our Riyadh representative.
Full source-code ownership
The full codebase transfers to your GitHub organisation at end of engagement. No lock-in to Wix, Shopify, Squarespace, or a proprietary CMS. Leave any time, take everything with you.
One team owns everything
Design, frontend, backend, DevOps, content migration, launch, and ongoing updates — all in-house. Not four vendors stitched together. Critical when you're paying USD from Yemen and need one accountability line.
From brief to live website.
Discovery + scope (remote)
One-week paid discovery over Zoom + WhatsApp: sitemap, page inventory, payment-gateway shortlist (Alkuraimi, Cactus...), hosting plan, content migration path if replacing an existing site.
Design + prototype
Interactive Figma prototype. You click through every page in Arabic and English before we write code. Every screen signed off by your team before build starts.
Two-week build sprints
Every sprint ends with a staging URL you share with stakeholders. You review as we build — no big reveal at the end. Content migration and QA happen in parallel with build.
Launch + handover
Production deployment on AWS Bahrain (or your chosen provider), DNS cutover coordinated with your team, backup automation wired, monitoring routed to your team's WhatsApp / Slack. Content-management training session so your team can update pages without us.
Ongoing updates + support
Post-launch retainer or per-sprint pricing. Content changes, new pages, seasonal campaigns, security patches. Communication stays on WhatsApp — same channel we used during build.

Everything Yemeni business owners ask us.
Do you have a branch in Yemen?
No. Darb Productions is headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and delivers to Yemeni 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 website cost in Yemen?
On Darb's instalment plan, a 10-page corporate site starts at USD 99/month for 12 months, and a full e-commerce store with local payment gateways starts at USD 109/month. Enterprise sites and custom platforms are quoted separately.
How does payment from Yemen work?
The main path is USDT settlement to our wallet (same-day, no banking friction). The alternative: hawala via trusted remittance networks to our Riyadh representative. International wires from Yemen are usually not practical.
Do you integrate Alkuraimi and Cactus?
Yes. Alkuraimi and Cactus are Yemen's widest-adopted mobile wallets; we integrate each via their official APIs and add Islamic Wallet when the client requests it.
Do you actually work with Yemeni businesses despite the situation?
Yes. The Yemeni market is active despite the constraints; serious businesses in Sana'a, Aden and Hadhramaut need tech partners that don't require on-the-ground delivery. We're specifically designed for that model.
Is opening Apple Developer and Google Play under a Yemeni company possible?
Yes, but DUNS setup takes patience. Our experience opening accounts for markets with less-familiar regulatory frameworks (Syria, Libya, Yemen) saves you months of dealing with Apple directly.
Ready to ship your Yemeni website?
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 Yemeni market.
