Which Saudi projects has Devmenta built?
Devmenta has built four live projects for Saudi organizations, covering higher education, photography, heavy transport and wellness.
Alfaisal University is a university website redesign covering academics and admissions. Lamset Noor Studio is a bilingual Arabic/English luxury photography studio. Almatalea Transport is an Arabic-first heavy transport company site tuned for mobile, and Aurora Spa is a Riyadh skincare spa with ritual booking. All four are live, so you can test the Arabic layouts on your own phone.
What does a website for the Saudi market need?
A website for Saudi Arabia should be designed in Arabic first, with a true right-to-left layout and fast mobile performance, because many Saudi customers browse in Arabic on their phones.
Arabic-first means the Arabic version is the primary design, not a translation squeezed into an English template. Navigation reads right to left, icons and arrows flip correctly, Arabic fonts stay legible at small sizes, and forms accept Arabic names and Saudi phone numbers. Bilingual sites add a language switcher and separate SEO titles and descriptions per language.
Devmenta tunes these builds for mobile, as on Almatalea Transport, and the Growth plan adds speed optimization. Arabic copy works best when written or reviewed by a native speaker on your side, while Devmenta handles layout, structure and the technical build. See web development.
Payments, platforms and data protection in KSA
Saudi online stores need local payment methods and sites that respect the Kingdom's data protection rules, and Devmenta builds Shopify and WooCommerce stores with payment gateways and consent-aware tracking.
Saudi shoppers commonly expect mada cards, Apple Pay, STC Pay and buy-now-pay-later options such as Tabby and Tamara, and Devmenta configures the gateway your business uses. Local builders like Salla and Zid are popular in KSA; Shopify or WooCommerce suits brands that want custom design, deeper integrations or to sell beyond the Kingdom.
Saudi Arabia's Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) governs how customer data is collected, so Devmenta builds with clear consent, privacy pages and careful form handling in mind. Your legal adviser confirms the policy wording.
Working hours, the Saudi week and communication
Riyadh runs on Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3), two hours behind Karachi, so the Saudi working day fits inside Devmenta's; the main thing to plan around is the Sunday-to-Thursday week.
Saudi Arabia's working week runs Sunday to Thursday, so Monday through Thursday are shared working days with Pakistan, and those are the best days for launch reviews and calls. Calls run on Zoom, Google Meet or WhatsApp, and WhatsApp works well for quick approvals.
- 9am in Riyadh = 11am in Karachi
- 5pm in Riyadh = 7pm in Karachi
- Neither country uses daylight saving, so the gap never changes
How much does a website cost for a Saudi business?
Devmenta's plans are priced in US dollars from $399 a month, and because the Saudi riyal is pegged to the dollar, the price in riyals stays stable.
Starter ($399/mo or $2,000/yr) covers a 5-page WordPress or Shopify site with basic on-page SEO, domain and SSL setup in about 7 days. Growth ($699/mo) adds custom design, 10 pages plus a blog, motion graphics and CRM integration. Scale ($1,199/mo) adds e-commerce and payment gateways, ad management, email flows, WhatsApp chat and 24/7 support and monitoring. University-scale sites, booking systems and web apps get a custom quote. Every plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee and no lock-in. See pricing.
