Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) is bringing philanthropy to the fingertips of its customers — literally. Through a landmark partnership with the Endowments and Minors’ Funds Authority (Awqaf Abu Dhabi), ADIB has integrated direct charitable giving into its mobile and online banking platforms, making it simpler than ever for everyday customers to give back.
The initiative enables customers to contribute directly to six endowment programs managed by Awqaf Abu Dhabi, spanning healthcare, education, social welfare, and Islamic affairs — all through ADIB’s existing digital channels.
The idea is straightforward: by embedding giving within a platform millions already use daily, ADIB removes the friction that often stands between good intentions and meaningful action. No separate apps, no complicated processes — just a few taps within your regular banking experience.
The partnership also supports licensed endowment entities across Abu Dhabi, including endowment companies, institutions, real estate units, and farms, furthering a broader digital transformation of the endowment ecosystem.
For ADIB, this is part of a wider philosophy. As ADIB’s Group CEO, Mohamed Abdelbary explained, the partnership reflects the bank’s commitment to enabling greater community participation through innovation and digitalization.
In a region where Islamic values of charitable giving — zakat and waqf — are deeply embedded in culture, ADIB’s move to digitize this tradition feels both timely and meaningful. It signals a growing trend: that the future of banking isn’t just about managing money, but empowering people to use it for good.
With this integration, ADIB isn’t just a bank. It’s becoming a gateway to community impact.
