Performance campaigns, SEO, paid media, funnels: digital marketing is one of the most-started businesses in the UAE, and one where the official licence names least resemble what the work is called.

The licence behind it.

These are the official licensed activities our engine maps to digital & online marketing: the exact names the authorities use, and every zone writes its own list in its own words. Our engine recognises them as one business, so your setup is built on the real activity behind it, not a guess. Where a zone’s own record notes an authority approval for an activity, it’s shown beside that zone: the licence is priced now, and an approval’s fee is scoped with you when it applies.
