Web Design for Saudi Businesses: Websites and Online Stores, Delivered Remotely
The short answer: Future Web is an Egyptian web design and development company, founded in 2018, that serves businesses in Saudi Arabia remotely. We have no office or branch in the Kingdom; we work over WhatsApp and video calls, and the time difference is one hour at most. We have built websites and online stores for Saudi companies in contracting, B2B supply, medical equipment, transport and gifts — they are listed on this page.
Web design for Saudi businesses, delivered remotely from Egypt
We prefer to be clear from the start: our team is in Egypt, and we have no premises or representative in Saudi Arabia. Every project we have delivered for the Saudi market was handled fully remotely, from the first call to launch and training. If a local office you can visit is a must for you, it is better to know that now.
What we offer Saudi businesses is the same as for our clients in Egypt and the Gulf:
- Company website design and development — bilingual business sites, project portfolios and request-for-quotation forms.
- E-commerce development — consumer stores, B2B catalogues and large catalogues with filters.
- Custom systems and software when off-the-shelf tools are not enough.

How does a remote project run?
Remote work needs more clarity than face-to-face work, so we follow written steps agreed in advance:
- Discovery call on WhatsApp or video to understand your business, audience and real needs.
- Written proposal defining pages, features, languages, milestones, what is out of scope and who prepares the content.
- Design and review via a link you can open on a computer or phone, with feedback collected in set rounds.
- Development on a staging site, so you see the site being built before it goes live.
- Launch and handover on your domain and hosting, with a video call to walk you through managing content.
Day-to-day communication is on WhatsApp, key meetings are on video, and the time difference between Egypt and Saudi Arabia is one hour at most, so working hours overlap closely. The domain, hosting and admin accounts are registered to your business, and you receive full admin access.
What do we need from you to start?
The clearer the information at the start, the more accurate the proposal. A short note on these points helps a lot:
- Your business and audience: consumers, companies or both.
- The main goal of the site: presenting the company, receiving quote requests or selling online.
- The languages required, and whether you already have a domain and hosting.
- Websites you like, and why.
- The content you have: logo and brand, copy, and product or project photos.
- Systems or services to connect, such as a payment gateway or accounting system.
If these details are not ready yet, our project preparation guide walks you through them step by step.
WooCommerce or a ready-made platform like Salla or Zid?
Salla and Zid are Saudi subscription platforms that bundle local payments, shipping and marketing tools in one dashboard. WooCommerce (on WordPress) or custom development gives you full ownership and more flexibility, in exchange for responsibility for hosting and maintenance.
| Situation | Usually the better fit |
|---|---|
| A new store with a limited range that needs to launch quickly without managing hosting | A ready-made platform such as Salla or Zid |
| A B2B catalogue with special pricing or request-a-quote instead of direct checkout | WooCommerce or custom |
| A company website and store in one place, in two languages, with a lot of content | WooCommerce |
| A specific integration with an internal inventory, accounting or management system | WooCommerce or custom |
| Design and user experience beyond the available templates | WooCommerce or custom |
If a ready-made platform suits your store better, we will tell you so. For a detailed comparison, read our e-commerce platform comparison.
What can be integrated with a Saudi store?
We can connect your store to the payment methods and services common in Saudi Arabia once your account with the provider is in place:
- Mada, Apple Pay and STC Pay through the payment gateway your business contracts with.
- Buy now, pay later such as Tabby and Tamara, once your business is approved by them.
- E-invoicing by connecting the store to your e-invoicing provider or accounting system, to meet ZATCA requirements.
- WhatsApp Business API for order confirmations and notifications, through your verified account with Meta or one of its providers.
- Shipping companies you work with, where they offer an API.
Each integration has its own provider requirements — a merchant account, documents, and fees or transaction rates set by the provider. We explain them before we start, and we are not agents or certified partners of any of these providers.
A launch checklist for a store in Saudi Arabia
- Legal entity: a commercial registration (CR), or a freelance document for individuals in permitted activities.
- E-store verification through the Saudi Business Center, which took over store verification from the former Maroof platform.
- A bank account and a payment-gateway account in the business’s name.
- A privacy policy explaining what data you collect and how you use it, in line with the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).
- E-invoicing: if your business is VAT-registered, check the FATOORA requirements and which phase applies to you on the ZATCA website.
- Store details and policies: business name and contact details, shipping, returns and exchange policies, and clear prices in riyals with VAT shown.
- Arabic content first, and English if part of your audience prefers it.
Note: this checklist is for awareness only and is not legal or tax advice; requirements can change, so confirm them with the official bodies or your adviser. For general store preparation, see our online store launch checklist.

No. We are based in Egypt and serve our Saudi clients fully remotely over WhatsApp and video calls. We have no branch or representative in the Kingdom.
How do we follow the project and communicate?
A WhatsApp chat for day-to-day communication, video meetings at key milestones, and a staging link where you see design and development as they progress. The time difference is one hour at most.
Can the website be in Arabic and English?
Yes — we have done this in several of our Saudi projects. We build the site to support both directions with separate URLs per language.
Do you connect stores to Saudi payment methods?
We can connect your store to Mada, Apple Pay and STC Pay through your payment gateway, and to Tabby and Tamara, once your account with the provider is in place. Opening and approving the account happens directly between you and the provider.
