Our Story
Dinar was born out of necessity. A response to the everyday struggles faced by millions in Syria trying to move, access, or save money safely. After years of conflict and economic collapse, traditional banking systems became unreliable or inaccessible for many. Cash dominated, trust eroded, and simple financial tasks became burdensome.
We created Dinar to restore dignity, security, and control to ordinary people. Whether you’re a shopkeeper in Damascus, a student, or a parent supporting a family, Dinar is built to serve you. Our mission is simple: to give people back the power to participate in a functioning, modern economy one tap at a time.
We’re not here to disrupt, we’re here to rebuild thoughtfully, transparently, and together.
