Authorized protocol analysis and production-ready API implementations for Saudi debt-based crowdfunding workflows, investor portfolios, and Auto-Invest automation.
The manafa | منافع app holds structured investment data that finance teams, family offices, and SME analytics platforms increasingly need to ingest: opportunity listings, individual subscriptions, scheduled repayments, and cash position. Our studio delivers authorized integration source code and OpenAPI documentation that mirrors the app's investor flows — onboarding, KYC handoff, opportunity browsing, subscription, monitoring, and Auto-Invest — without bypassing manafa's official authorization layer.
Programmatic registration, login token refresh, and a structured handoff for KYC artefacts (national ID, bank IBAN, declared income tier). Use case: a wealth-management dashboard onboards a client into manafa in the same flow that opens their main brokerage account, then mirrors the resulting investor ID into a unified CRM record.
Paginated list of currently open SME debt-crowdfunding opportunities with sector, tenor, target amount, profit rate, current funding progress, and remaining capacity. Use case: a robo-advisor matches each opportunity against client risk policy and surfaces a short-list inside the advisor's own app.
Create or read investor subscriptions, retrieve repayment schedules, reconcile distributions against expected cash-flow. Use case: a family-office accounting team imports daily distributions to close their cash book without manual entry.
Configure Auto-Invest filters (sector, min rating, max ticket per opportunity, monthly cap), then receive webhook events when a rule fires. Use case: a treasury team caps total Saudi debt-crowdfunding exposure at SAR 250,000 per month across multiple platforms.
Time-bounded statement extraction with categorisation (principal returned, profit, fees, withholding) and downloadable Excel/PDF/JSON. Use case: an external auditor generates a quarterly evidence pack for SAMA-aligned reporting.
Subscribe to lifecycle events: new opportunity published, allocation closed, repayment received, opportunity overdue. Use case: a Slack-native ops bot pings the portfolio manager whenever a tracked SME misses a scheduled installment.
Below is a working inventory of the data classes that can be exposed via authorized manafa | منافع integration. Granularity is the maximum supported by the source flow; field-level scope is always governed by user consent and PDPL data-minimization rules.
| Data type | Source (screen / feature) | Granularity | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Investor profile | Sign-up & KYC flow | Per investor: ID, tier (retail / professional), declared income bracket | Risk segmentation, professional-investor uplift under SAMA criteria |
| Opportunity listings | Investment opportunities feed | Per opportunity: sector, target, profit rate, tenor, funded % | Pipeline screening, comparative analytics across platforms |
| Subscription records | "My investments" history | Per ticket: amount, opportunity ID, subscription date, status | Concentration analysis, exposure caps, audit trail |
| Repayment schedule | Investment monitoring screen | Per installment: due date, expected principal & profit | Cash-flow forecasting, treasury planning |
| Distribution events | Wallet / cash-out screen | Per event: amount, date, category (profit / principal / fee) | Reconciliation, P&L reporting, tax preparation |
| Auto-Invest configuration | Auto-Invest settings | Per investor: active rules, filters, monthly caps | Cross-platform automation, governance approvals |
| Statement exports | Statements / documents | Per period: aggregated PDF / Excel | Auditor-ready evidence, regulatory filing support |
Business context: A Riyadh family office allocates capital across several SAMA-licensed crowdfunding platforms and needs a single performance view.
Data & APIs: manafa subscription list + repayment schedule + distribution events; combined with parallel feeds from peer platforms.
OpenFinance mapping: Treats manafa as an Account Information Service (AIS) source under the SAMA Open Banking pattern, normalizing balances and cash-flow into a shared schema.
Business context: A wealth-tech startup wants to drive Auto-Invest decisions from its own model, not from manafa's built-in filters alone.
Data & APIs: Opportunity feed (read), Auto-Invest rule push, webhook callback for fired rules; risk score computed externally per opportunity.
OpenFinance mapping: Behaves as a Payment Initiation-style flow (PIS analogue), where the third party orchestrates the action and manafa executes it under recorded user consent.
Business context: An SME corporate treasury invests surplus working capital in short-term manafa opportunities and must reconcile inflows against the bank statement.
Data & APIs: Distribution events stream + statement export endpoint mapped to ERP journal lines (account 7210 "investment income", 1210 "principal returned").
OpenFinance mapping: Aligns with PDPL consent records by storing only the categorised cash-flow needed for the ledger, not the underlying investor profile.
Business context: A licensed advisor must demonstrate to a regulator that a client's allocation respects exposure limits per issuer and per sector.
Data & APIs: Subscription records + opportunity metadata aggregated per period, signed PDF statement attached as evidence.
OpenFinance mapping: Generates an attested data extract; consent revocation under PDPL purges retained extracts on schedule.
Business context: manafa's "upgrade to Professional Investor" pathway depends on SAMA criteria; an external onboarding stack wants to evaluate eligibility before nudging the user.
Data & APIs: Investor profile read + declared income / asset attestations + status callback when manafa accepts the uplift.
OpenFinance mapping: A consented identity-attribute exchange; the third party never stores raw documents, only a verified status flag.

All deliverables for the manafa | منافع app are designed to operate inside Saudi Arabia's regulated perimeter. We align with the SAMA Open Banking Framework, whose first release covered Account Information Services (AIS) and whose second release (February 2024) added Payment Initiation Services (PIS) — the same pattern we use to model investor portfolio reads and Auto-Invest writes. Investor data handling follows the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL), in effect since 2023, which requires informed, specific and revocable consent before any third-party data sharing.
In practice this means: every integration ships with a recorded consent ID, a documented data-minimisation map (only the fields the use case truly needs), retention timers, and a revocation hook that purges downstream copies. We do not deliver any code that bypasses manafa's authentication, that scrapes data without consent, or that retains raw KYC documents outside the licensed perimeter.
A reference pipeline for a manafa integration looks like this:
manafa | منافع primarily serves Saudi-resident retail investors entering debt crowdfunding from SAR 1,000, alongside professional investors who satisfy SAMA's higher-tier criteria for unrestricted ticket sizes. The user base skews toward digitally-native individuals (Android and iOS), small family offices, and SME treasurers seeking short-term yield — the same buyers our integration clients build dashboards, advisory tools, and ERP connectors for. Manafa Capital announced a $28M Series A round to extend this product line; integration demand reflects the growing institutional appetite for Saudi alternative-finance data inside Vision 2030's fintech agenda.

The Saudi alternative-finance ecosystem is widening fast. Teams that integrate manafa often unify it with feeds from peer platforms below; we frame these names purely as part of the broader landscape that benefits from the same OpenData / OpenFinance approach.
Shariah-compliant SME debt crowdfunding from a 1,000 SAR ticket. Investors who already hold Lendo positions usually want a unified Saudi-debt cash-flow view.
Connects global investors to Saudi SMEs with Sharia-compliant private credit. Cross-app reporting needs map to the same statement-export pattern.
Returns of 6–20% depending on borrower credit rating. Integration value lies in normalised credit-rating fields across platforms.
Offers both auto-allocation and manual project selection. Ideal counterpart to manafa's Auto-Invest in a unified rule registry.
Specialises in financing government purchase orders. Integration helps treasury teams reconcile PO-backed cash-flow alongside manafa's general SME book.
Saudi real-estate crowdfunding from SAR 1,000. A common cross-asset diversification destination for the same retail investor base.
Fully Shariah-compliant real-estate crowdfunding with 13–16% annualised returns. Useful for cross-asset allocation dashboards.
Islamic finance crowdfunding and social-finance platform. Adds shariah-screened opportunities to a unified investor view.
Aggregator and informational hub for Saudi crowdfunding. A natural data peer when surfacing market-wide pipeline data.
We are an independent technical studio focused on App interface integration and authorized API integration. Team members come from banks, payment gateways, fintech platforms, and protocol-analysis backgrounds. We have shipped end-to-end integrations across financial, e-commerce, travel, and OTT apps, and we work day-to-day inside frameworks such as SAMA Open Banking, PSD2, UPI, and PDPL/GDPR.

manafa | منافع is a Saudi debt-based crowdfunding mobile app published by Manafa Capital, a fintech licensed by the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) for debt-based crowdfunding. The app lets retail and professional investors browse short-term SME financing opportunities, subscribe from as little as 1,000 SAR, monitor their portfolio, and use an Auto-Invest engine to allocate capital to opportunities that match their criteria.
According to public sources, Manafa was founded in 2018 by Amr Murad and Abdulaziz Al-Adwani, secured a $28M Series A round, and as of recent reporting serves over 105,000 investors with more than SAR 1.5 billion in funding facilitated for Saudi SMEs. Investors typically see indicative yearly returns around 15% on short-term (3–12 month) opportunities, with manafa charging 20% of net profit (excluding VAT) per opportunity.
Headline features named by the app include:
The app is positioned as part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 / Financial Sector Development Program agenda, and operates alongside the SAMA Open Banking Framework and the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) that governs personal financial data sharing in the Kingdom.
